⏳ How Much Time Can ChatGPT Really Save You in Marketing?
Spoiler: a lot.
Marketing can be a full-time job—even when it’s just one hat you wear in your small business. But what if you could save 5–10 hours a week without hiring anyone? With ChatGPT, that’s not only possible—it’s already happening.
Here’s how.
💬 The Average Small Business Owner Spends…
3–5 hours/week writing social media posts
2–4 hours on email newsletters
2–3 hours brainstorming content ideas
3–6 hours writing or editing blogs
2+ hours doing SEO tasks
~1 hour replying to customer FAQs
That’s 13–21 hours per week—just on content and communication. No wonder it feels like you’re always behind.
