I applied to Buffer 3 times before I landed my initial role as Buffer's first PR hire. Now, 8 years later, I have the immense honor of being able to bring new people into Buffer. We don't hire often, though. We are a 71 person company, 9 of those people are on the Marketing team, and within Marketing our small Content team will be 4 people. So it's a big deal to bring someone into the company and to the team. I'm beyond thrilled that I get to do it again and hire a Senior Social Media Manager at Buffer. If this is you — I'd love to learn more about you! Please apply using the link in the comments. #hiring #remotejobs #socialmediamanager

New role, who dis? Today I'm starting a new chapter at Buffer. I'm so excited to be joining the People team!

In my work at Buffer and in consulting with small businesses, I've found that cash management is one of the most challenging areas to master. Just last week, a small business owner asked me, 'What is a healthy cash balance for my business?' Bridging the gap between the P&L and cash forecasts requires time and practice. In my experience, this process tends to be easier in SaaS, where revenues are more predictable and less affected by seasonality. However, with the right approach, it's absolutely achievable in other sectors as well. At Buffer, we've dedicated years to mastering our cash flow, ensuring we have a strong month-to-month understanding of what to expect. I firmly believe that how we manage and spend our cash reflects what we value. Looking back 12 months, we’ve spent $20.8M and here’s where it went:

The best times to post on TikTok, you say? We analyzed more than 1 million TikToks to uncover them. 🤓 While *what* you post will always be more important than *when* you post, our research uncovered some definite patterns in post timing for maximum reach. Senior content writer Kirsti Lang walks you through the best time slots for the week here. Scroll to 00:49 to screenshot. ⚡️

Something you may not know about Buffer: We've raised just $4M in total funding over our almost 14-year journey, and generated over $170M in total lifetime revenue. Our last round was almost a decade ago in 2014. For 8 of our 13 years, we’ve been profitable. And since 2017, we have bought back 21.2% of fully diluted shares. Despite being in a phase of decline the past few years, we entered that period with a very strong bank balance of over $6M. We did not have to carry out any layoffs, throughout the pandemic or when they were very prevalent in 2022/23. Not only that, we have been able to continue buying back stock from folks who were seeking liquidity. In 2023, we carried out three stock repurchases, at a collective cost of $889K. Buying back stock during a period of decline has set us up to be in a strong position. This year, we're back to growth and profitability. We're fast approaching $19M in ARR and it feels like there's a ton of opportunity in our space right now. I enjoy operating with the flexibility to go our own unique path and really build something meaningful for customers and the team. As with life, there are seasons to a company. I love that we've created a company where we can embrace the various seasons of our industry and business, rather than turn everything upside down after one tough quarter.
