I promote my business on social media when I have something to say about the industry I am in.  It's not high volume, so it is not annoying to others.  How often you post for a business depends on your type of business and what you want to accomplish for your business and its images, over and beyond the obvious of advertising products and/or services.
Minimum daily but it truly depends on the platform that I am working under.

I aim to post at least 3x per week in addition to blogging 2x per month (which I will increase to 3x month). These goals were suggested to me by my partners who are experts in their respective fields.
I almost never post.  The focus of my business is to gather information from social media, as well as other sources.  There is little need to post.  All contact is made through direct messaging and/or email.

And yes, social media is one of THE best ways to promote a business.
On a daily basis. I post on related things on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter to keep my name in everyone’s feed. I also have a blog and a Facebook group for my students.

Posting on Social Media every day is expected, but what gets peoples' attention is pictures along with whatever message you have. It is a picture or graphic that will get them to stop and read your message.
I use a rule of thumb is 5:1 - 5 personal to 1 business posts because most people go to SM for fun and I’m on SM daily 
I post on social media at ten products a day daily. 
Post every day. Post many times a day if you can. On Facebook leverage video as much as possible. Facebook Live is even better.
