Building a social media management system for inventory

Hello guys,

Thank you for taking the time to read this. I hope you all are doing good.

I wanted to understand if Laravel would be a right choice to build the following primary features:

  • Allow dealerships to load their inventory ( like automobiles, real estate etc ).
  • Post advertisements for the inventory on different social media platforms.
  • Track the status of the ads posted ( using APIs or crawling the website if API is unavailable ) on social media and update the status in the system,
  • Run cron jobs to remove stale inventory data from the application DB and remove ads from social media.
  • Allow the dealerships to run campaigns by allowing them to selectively post inventory based on fixed rules and conditions
  • Track the performance of the advertisements across dealerships.

Thank you for taking time and responding. Need to look into the support that laravel offers for running background jobs. If you have links to any course or articles, it would great if you can post them here
