CapCut
CapCut is a great app for creating short video content. It will greatly increase the chances of your business becoming viral.
It includes not only basic editing features such as cutting and rotating video and adding a soundtrack but also a lot of interesting effects that come as ready-to-use templates. The whole tool is very intuitive and requires no additional knowledge in order to create something cool.

Woofy
As a business of one, I have to get creative with my time and resources. One tool I’ve found to give me back a few hours each week is Woofy. It’s a social media content creation and scheduling tool that costs less than $100 per year! I can create all my social posts within the tool and schedule them for posting across multiple networks. I’ve been using this tool for several months and have never had a single failed post.
Woofy also has some AI features I haven’t tried yet. I prefer to write my copy, but Woofy has the option to generate copy ideas for you, in case you’re not a writer but still want to post on social media. It’s an overall great tool for small companies with small budgets.

Canva
I would say Canva, as every small business I’ve introduced it to has been amazed at how much they can create with it—and how much they can do for free!
Paying for professional-looking social media creatives is an enormous obstacle for small businesses, so to do it themselves for free with Canva is genuinely game-changing for them.

While some small businesses may have an easy time developing social media posts or partnering with someone who can develop posts for them, often, writing an effective caption can prove difficult. Whether it’s finding the proper wording or knowing which relevant hashtags to include, social media captions are incredibly important for reaching a wide audience.
Searching for this for my own social media posts led me to use Copysquire.com, which was built to help small businesses generate different variations of captions with relevant hashtags.
