What would you do if your Instagram or YouTube channel just disappeared? Yes, it totally does happen … and it’s obviously devastating if you are ONLY using these platforms for your business. Using social media platforms like Instagram and Facebook to promote your content and make money is easy, but since you don’t own those platforms you’re putting your business at risk!
