In 2025, Enji sees small businesses struggling most with declining organic reach on social media, constant algorithm changes, and rising competition for attention online. It’s harder than ever to get seen without paying for ads, and many platforms reward trends over substance. To succeed, businesses need a more balanced strategy—one that doesn’t rely solely on social media and includes owned channels like email, SEO, and referral programs.
The “Why Is This So Hard?” Reality Check
If marketing feels harder in 2025, you’re not imagining it. Enji’s seen the data—and the struggle is real. Organic reach on social media has dropped dramatically, making it harder to connect with your audience without paying for ads. Posts that once reached hundreds now barely reach a handful unless you boost them.
The algorithms aren’t helping either. Just as you start to figure out what works, the rules change—again. It’s exhausting trying to keep up when every platform favors different formats, timing, and engagement tactics.
On top of that, the digital space is more crowded than ever. With more creators and businesses online, it’s harder to stand out—and small businesses don’t always have the time or budget to play the same game.
But here’s the upside: the businesses that are still growing have shifted strategies. They’ve moved beyond relying solely on social media and are investing in channels they can control—like email marketing, SEO, referral programs, and partnerships. These aren’t just backups—they’re sustainable ways to reach your audience without chasing every trend.
These are the Enji tools and capabilities that best address this question.
