However, many are hesitant to use it. One reason is that many micro-businesses are already using social media, but are not progressing in their business. The purpose of this study is to find out how social media plays in developing micro-businesses, particularly in the field of food. Using qualitative methods with a phenomenological approach, the study took five respondents from those who successfully developed micro-businesses in the food field by utilizing social media. Unlike previous studies, this study focused on the use of social media in developing micro-businesses in the field of food. This is interesting to see the increasing use of social media in business during the covid19 pandemic.The results show the use of social media is believed to be very helpful for marketing development. To be able to optimize the use of social media in developing a business, must understand the characteristics of social media used. In the long run, support for good products and services is key in micro-business development. The results of this study can be used by all interested parties to develop micro-businesses, especially in the field of food. In addition, this research can still be continued to get more perfect results as one of the theories of developing micro-businesses.Keywords: social media, micro business, business development, food businessReferences
