It is time for businesses to consider utilizing social media, however their considerations should be based upon 2 independent situations. First, what kind of impact do social networks have on businesses? Second, what sort of effect can businesses expect without social media? The impact that social networks has on service varies, however it’s been kept in mind that nearly 80% of SMBs or medium-sized and small services have actually reported an increase in traffic with the assistance of social media websites. However, this is not a trusted statistic alone to ensure one’s success on using social networks for organizations.
Various surveys have been carried out on the number of individuals that use social media websites and the method they can affect marketing techniques. For beginners, Coleman-Parkes Research revealed that 84% of American business felt the desire to create new methods to communicate with their customers, consisting of social media and mobile marketing. If you take those numbers into consideration alone, you are missing out on out on a lot of prospective leads and traffic by avoiding out on social media
In an old study done by the 2008 Cone Business in Social Media Study, the statistics revealed interesting information which should be kept in mind by company owner. -60% of American residents use social media. -90% of those noted that businesses should have social media presence -85% of those noted that businesses ought to communicate with their customers through social networks.
Customers that were surveyed also indicated that companies need to utilize social media for the purpose of:
Problem resolving (43%).
Obtain feedback and remarks (41%).
Customer interaction with business (37%).
Market to consumers (25%).
These outcomes ought to be sufficient for company owner to consider the use of social media. If their consumers desire them on social media websites, it’s already an indication that they too want to reach to businesses. It’s an indication that services require social media since their clients are currently there. All they actually need to do is sign up, develop an account, put pictures, upgrade continuously, and they’re all set for life.
At this state, social media websites like Facebook and Twitter are here to stay for a very long time.
It is time for services to consider using social media, however their considerations need to be based on two independent circumstances. The impact that social media has on organization differs, however it’s been noted that practically 80% of SMBs or medium-sized and small businesses have actually reported a boost in traffic with the aid of social media sites. These results ought to be more than enough for organization owners to think about the usage of social media. If their customers desire them on social media sites, it’s already a sign that they too want to reach to businesses. It’s an indication that organizations require social media because their customers are already there.
Social Media and Customer Service
Even if you have a great social media strategy for your business. Customer service is key! The video below has great tips for your business to exceed your clients expectations.
We’re going to learn about lumely lumely is a social media management tool and we’re going to go in and set it up and actually see what it does. If you’re starting your business and you’re feeling overwhelmed from posting all over the place and just trying to find the time to do it by the end of the day, that sometimes seems like all that you’ve gotten done is that you’ve post posted right now.
Many of you already realized that you don’t need to be posting all over the place. If you have one place that you post that’s enough, especially in the beginning, and you want to build from there, but today we’re not talking about what you should be doing. As far as posting, but I’m going to offer you a tool, that’s going to help you post ahead of time. So you could take a day and say I’m going to post out everything for the month and have it set and it will go ahead and post for you now.
Another way to do that is to hire a virtual assistant. But some of us just don’t, have the funds right now to hire virtual assistants, so you’re looking for software tools that are going to help make your life easier so that you can put your time into things that are creating money, alright, so lumely, let’s get started. Let’s go in and look at it and, like I said we’re going to go right to the beginning and we’re going to set it up to show you how easy it is.
They do have a 15-day review. There is a link below so go ahead and hit that if this is something you’re interested in but before you do that check it out here and see if this is something that you’d be interested alright, when you get on the first page, when you get your 15-Day review they’re going to it’s you’re, going to create a calendar and that’s exactly what you’re doing you’re scheduling your posts.
So I wanted you to see how easy it is to set up you’re just going to follow. You can add a lote logo here for your business or you could add your own page, we’re going to write a demo company here and then your time zone now. This is where it is really neat. Okay. This is where it’s a huge time-saver in your business. Let’s say you are at the point, your business, that you’ve master two or three social media accounts and you are posting okay again, if you’re brand new, you need to focus on one get to know it and then expand, but here you can post on Facebook.
You are, if you’re doing Facebook for ads Twitter now Instagram isn’t here yet, but they will send you a notification, reminder and say: hey you posted every place else, make sure you get your Instagram. There is a little note here that they’re working on it. That’s usually a big one: everybody wants to make sure they can post on their Instagram. So you know if you get on there now and you know that they’ll at least notify you that step is there.
They also can post on Pinterest, LinkedIn and Google, my business. So we’re I’m going to have just to connect to a couple: let’s do Pinterest and Twitter now, each time I hit one of these, it’s going to actually search for my account and then connect. So I’m just going to do Twitter and Pinterest right now. Just for the sake of time, so we’re going to connect to those and then we’ll I’ll show you how you can set up your account.
Okay, I changed it to Facebook. When I was trying to get into my Twitter account, it wasn’t taking my password and it would take me a while to go. Look in my Google Docs to find the update at 1:00 and all that stuff. So anyway, I am in Facebook, and I just put it on my business page and Pinterest. I just picked a couple things so with that make sure as you’re setting up you have access to all of your accounts and all of your passwords.
It will take you a few minutes to get that all connected. What happened was it just connects, but then you’ll have to know your username and password. Alright, let’s go to the next step. Now this one, if you have a team working for you or maybe you just hired someone in your family, maybe there’s maybe one of your kids. Your teenage kids could help you with this. Okay, you have different three different workflows that you can choose from.
So this is one thing I do love about this one. You can have more than one collaborator in charge. So if you have somebody helping you, but then there’s going to be some different steps, draft pending approval requires edits, approved, scheduled and publish, so your post is going to be in one of those pockets. If you don’t need all that, it’s just you, nobody else is working with you. Then you want to come down here, possibly look at the light, workflow one collaborator, but you still may have some things in draft pen.
Approval requires edit schedule published you’re still thinking. Well, I don’t really set up drafts. I just get right in and I do it. Then you want to go down here. Zero work through no approval steps. Three post states you’re going to have a draft scheduled published so you’re not going to go in and edit and things like. Let let’s just go with the light one and select that for today now, if you’re, someone that runs out of ideas and maybe sometimes you’re sitting down you’re like oh my gosh, you know I just need like ten more ideas and because I’m posting for the whole Month and that can be cumbersome right here, you can ask gloomily to grab your RSS feed URL.
So maybe you have feeds coming in to those different platforms. They can pull them in and say: hey here are some things you might want to repost or you might want to edit it and post it. If you don’t want them there then don’t add it. Okay, I’m going to skip that for now and we’re going to go forward, but a pretty cool idea because, like I said, it’ll help you with ideas here you can invite people to approve, couldn’t contribute or view your post on your calendar.
So maybe you want someone like that first step to come and be a collaborator collaborator and say that really fast, three times collaborator but put their email in and whatever their role is and the role could be an editor, a client, a contributor, a viewer or just A custom role, so maybe you just want someone to look them over, even maybe you’re, in a position where you know you’ve got somebody you’re working with and they you know you have them, come in and get their ideas.
So you have these options. You do not have to choose them all right now, we’re going to finish and get to the fun part. I just wanted you to see how easy it is to set up, because sometimes we see these different tools for our business and just trying to learn the tool can be overwhelming, and then you get stuck and you’re more overwhelmed. But if you just take the time schedule the time and say I’m just going to sit down, take a whole day, maybe take two whole days block everything out and get it done.
And then you have a whole month where you can have stuff already post it, and you don’t have to worry about it. Am I in teaching, as a teacher, I have I’m a teacher and I homeschooled, but one of the things that I would do, especially with children that have trouble doing lots of things at once. Is we called it block, scheduling or block teaching well, even with business? I recommend to people when they get overwhelmed.
I have too many tasks to do. I tell them to think of all your tasks in blocks and maybe in one day only do two things, but do a lot of it. Does that make sense so you’re blocking it? Instead of doing five different things every day, you might do just two things, just like with YouTube articles. You know get all your articles done in one day and then it’s done when you’re posting for social media get it all done in one day and again, if you’re new and still coming up with ideas, maybe half a day to half a days would work.
But you have to figure out what works for you without getting overwhelmed and without losing that focus, because sometimes, if you’re all over the place, you get distracted and then you never finish it. And then this tool is useless because you’re not using it and that’s what a lot of people do. I have seen so many people start their business and they buy all these wonderful tools and they’re, putting out monthly fees and then they don’t use it.
And in my heart I hate to see that I hate to see people waste their money like that, but I don’t think people do it on purpose as much as they just get overwhelmed. So I’m giving you that little tip right now take the time sit down and again I as a brand new person. I would take two days just block them out and get it done and then move on to something else. Okay, so let’s move on here just to get started to understand how the system works.
Lumely gives you ideas like there’s funny Friday, you can get a quote and they’ll give you different ideas, so you can even pull from their library. If you, if you you know per say alright, so now we’re going to pull something. When am I scheduling it today is the 27th, let’s say 11:30 a.M. This is only for my reference, so I might say it’s a quote. Maybe every day I’d like to post a quote: okay and I’m going to label it inspiration, okay and then we’re going to go next.
Where do you want to post it? I want to post it on my Pinterest and which board do I want to post it on great quotes? I have a board called quotes right there, alright, and I want to put it on my Facebook page and it’s also called quotes. Okay. So, let’s go to the next button thing. I just want you to see that you can post it two places at once. Now this is a place where I can say something I can put the quote or the hashtags.
You have to be careful on whatever platforms. You’re on make sure whatever you’re doing that they all take it. For instance, if I was putting a really long passage for Facebook, I can’t put that on Pinterest and I can’t put that on Twitter. So since I’m just putting a quote, it’s going to be fine for both. So keep that in mind, especially if you’d like to put lengthy posts in your Facebook page. I say I just put a corny quote: the early bird gets the worm.
I put three hashtags: both of them will work with Pinterest and it will work with my Facebook page. If you want to put a URL in there like like right down here, you can put a picture. You can put a article and anything like that that you want I’m going to leave those alone for right now for the sake of time, and we will continue now one thing before I go right here where it says: hashtag you, if you have certain hashtags, that You use all the time like if you use hashtag, and I use my name – let’s say: okay, I use my own name as a hashtag.
A lot I can. I can save it. Okay and then here’s another one. Hashtag start your own business goodness and then up here I didn’t hit the inner. Oh that’s the name of the collection, okay, alright, so you can, you can save your hashtags and then you can go in and grab them whenever you want them. Okay, now, once I hit next, it says fine tune. It is there anything that you want to do. Here’s where you can add content, media specific to each blog, so on Pinterest I could put a link to my YouTube, blog or a YouTube article.
I could do the same thing with Facebook actually, but I’m not going to add anything. But this is where each one of your platforms, you can customize it and make sure it fits. Maybe you did have a big paragraph that you wanted to add to Facebook to go with that quote. Maybe you wanted to explain how it’s touched your life and tell a story. This is where you can add it. Okay, so I’m just going to hit, got it and then they’re going to give you some tips about you know was that the best time this is Facebook, it’s telling me simple status posts are not recommended.
Why don’t you try and share a link or an image or a article, so they’re saying you’re, just putting a post? You need to add some more to it. So they’re going to give you some ideas, what’s going to make it better than what it is, alright, which is awesome for each one of your individual posts. So then you can fine-tune each one from now. I’ve never seen on a social media management platform where you can actually pick your audience.
Okay, so you can say these are the preferred audience that I want to see what I’m posting. So, if you’re you’ve already started your business, you have a target audience. You can target your audience here, we’re just going to go in and pick. I don’t really masters, I’m just picking some things interest. You can type them in and locations. You can type them in okay. So let’s go next all right now I can save it.
I can schedule it or I can post it. So if I’m not sure if I’m finished, I can go ahead and save it. I could schedule it right now or I can publish it right away. So I’m going to schedule it just so you can see, because this is a scheduler. Now Pinterest wants a picture you’re not allowed to post anything on Pinterest without a picture. So the whole system stopped me and said: you can’t schedule it until you have a post.
So up here the picture the little photo icon was in green, so all’s I have to do is hit that and then I can go ahead and pull up a picture from my browser. So I’m going to do that right now now. Basically, it brought me back to step 3 where it said, define what you want to put on each page. So just a hint when you get do any Pinterest, you want to make sure you have some pictures. Now I have some chickens as I went into my folder and I grabbed it real quick.
It happened to be on my desktop again. I would not post this. I just want you to see the steps and how easy it is to follow. So there’s my chicken with their head sticking out, it goes kind of with the the quote. Early bird gets the worm right that all works, all right, so let’s hit next and now we’re going to post to our Facebook and to Pinterest. So that is an old picture. I don’t have that horse trailer anymore, that’s an old one, all right again, it tells me the different things that I need to do, do and prove it, and then I hit next after my improvements and now we are going to look at our audience.
It’s already been picked, let’s go next and now I’m going to schedule and that’s what we’ve been waiting for. How do you schedule again? It takes time and thought, but remember you’re, doing it all in one block in a day or two and you’ve got you can schedule out for the entire month. I have another tip for you before this is over about scheduling that I learned from somebody else. That is ahead of me, okay, so we are going to put this on Facebook and we’re going to schedule it.
It says scheduled and then we’re going to schedule it. I scheduled it for today at 11:30 and it’s been scheduled to both places and it’s ready to go so I can have everything. Go it’ll publish to all my accounts that I wanted to go to and it’s done so. If you publish like three times a day or twice a day or even once a day on various accounts, everything will go out at the same time and I’ve just done the work once I don’t have to go into each of those accounts and you’re going to Get better at it as you go, you might, even during the month as you have ideas, start a folder get a Dropbox or a google doc, I’m folder and just start throwing things in there.
If you have some images or some quotes that you like to start throwing them in there and then when it’s time to sit down and do the next month, you have all your stuff. Now here’s my tip to end the day after just come up with three really good months, like 90 days of posts, okay, three good months, maybe even four and then after you use them, recycle them go back in and you can recycle them and use them all Over again, so you don’t have to keep recreating them over and over now once in a while, especially on Facebook, you might have something personal that you want to add or something that you really want to share.
That’s lengthy! You can go into paint Facebook on your own and just post stuff like that, the current stuff, but that stuff that you want to post. You know some quotes some inspirations. Some you might teach some things about the business that you’re in to help people maybe you’re into oils, and you have different products that you want to share like what they do, how they help improve their life.
Things like that, you will just post it and it’ll be on its own rotation. So there’s my tip so you’re doing a lot of work in the beginning. You get that system in place and then you don’t have to keep touching it, except when you go in to reschedule them to recycle them. Okay, so one day a month, it’s going to turn into maybe a half a day, or maybe two two hours after you recycle and you just saved yourself a heck of a lot of time.
I hope this was helpful to you. The link is below you see how easy it is to post get the 15 day free trial check it out. There are various social media management programs out there. I like this one because of how simple it is to use, and it will just post everything for you all at once.

Quality and cost – and you get to have two of those – the project management triangle – Is that sometimes known is a valuable tool for prioritizing and Decision-Making, it’s often used as a throwaway tool in training courses, but It’s a powerful tool in the hands of a competent leader or marketing.
Professional you get to pick two of those, but you can’t have all three most People that have been in a business or a project management course at some time. I’ve heard of the project management triangle – it’s sometimes known, Alternatively, as the triple constraint or the iron triangle, Today, we’re going to apply it to social media marketing and rename it the social Media marketing triangle, so I can have a nice click.
Pd title just add some Confusion there are also variants on this model, but we’re going to be Chatting about time, quality and cost. The basic premise is this: there are three Main factors in all decisions – and you can only have two of them – let’s explore The triple constraint shall we, you can build a marketing campaign that is fast And cheap, but it probably won’t be very good quality or you can build a Marketing campaign that is cheap and of great quality, but it’s not going to be Fast or you can build a marketing campaign that is executed quickly and is A high quality, but it’s going to cost you a lot of money when defining a Project or series of work tasks there are boundaries and values that we need.
To work with them for me at the beginning of any major project, I need to Understand what the key priorities are given a situation, what does the Stakeholder of the project champion value the most. Is it time quality or Cost problems are going to occur, compromises will need to be made in Under these situations, what comes first, is it time, quality or cost? What comes Last say it with me time: quality or cost it’s never allowed to be, it depends or a Smirky little yes, and for the record, if the person leaving the project tries to Claim that all three are possible, while they’re a terrible person for a given Project deliverable or campaign strategy, there must always be a first priority in A last priority set without this confusion, indecision and ultimately Failure will rule, of course, the person paying the bill.
Will want all three, but they can’t have those the confident project manager, Knows this and helps the stakeholder to understand that you can have two, but not Three, this really manifests itself when it comes to problems and big barriers in The development of your campaign, things go wrong. The plan gets delayed things Need to be done, people need to sleep, life happens, so team members need to Understand before things go wrong, what your priority really is.
Any campaign With a price or cost is fixed before the campaigning starts as a disaster in the Making no matter how well you plan things are going to change when costs Are fixed before the scoping goals are determined you’re left with one of two Outcomes the campaign timing will be affected or the messaging, creative or Other elements will not be of the quality that you want in these Situations, low quality could mean less engagement, less reach and lower sales.
When the problems occur before a campaign, scope is even determined there. Is always a cost or penalty involved in this scenario, that cost could be a new Time constraint, spending money which wasn’t in your budget or the quality of The messaging, creative or the results of the campaign are just not going to live. Up to what your expectations were, time is the factor of speed when something Needs to be done by a certain date.
We can always make things faster by Throwing more resources at the problem, but that costs money equally, we can do It for the given time at the given cost, but then the quality slips money and Resources are the bedrock of all business decisions and everything costs Something sometimes we have extra budget to spend other times. We don’t sometimes We have more resources, sometimes we don’t. Quality is often difficult to Measure what’s good quality, what’s poor quality, often quality is in The eye of the beholder the bottom line for me regarding quality is fitness for Purpose, for example, is a cheap cup of coffee quality.
Well, if our need is to Get a quick buzz to help get us through the afternoon laws, then the terrible Caffeine-Fueled cup of gel and a Styrofoam cup will probably do the trick. But if our goal is to impress our flannel-wearing hipster friends with Aroma and sourcing embody and acidity and texture and creaminess and other Characteristics which make up an amazing coffee experience, Well, then, we need a much higher level of specification to meet the definition.
Quality can be said to be a distinctive attribute or characteristic possessed by Something if that attribute is missing. Well then, we tend to say that the Quality is lacking in marketing, especially in creative fields. The Quality is extremely subjective and must be trusted to a brand advocate on the Team who will push for business decisions to always be made with the Protection of the brand image culture and other characteristics in mind.
I have A belief that when you find yourself saying no more often than you’re saying Yes, the decisions are on marketing advertising and branding well you’re. Probably on the correct path to doing it right, All these factors contribute to the scope of a campaign, the boundaries of Your overall digital strategy and the stated goals or outcomes time quality And cost what they don’t tell you is that you can have any two, not three two So this model is taught at many courses.
Its name sometimes changes the Dimensions on the triangle sometimes vary, but all the documentation Literature that I’ve seen all MIT look to say that the keys to making this work Is discipline, focus and consistency once a priority order for a project has been Set you cannot pick and choose which to you apply this priority throughout the Project process the methodology works best when used as a set of underlying Principles behind a campaign as a whole, the social media, marketing triangle or Triple constraint, tool is a useful framework for all marketers and business Leaders to use as part of the planning when it comes to campaign strategy and Problem solving with everyone involved, knowing that constraints and priorities, Before the problems happen, it can make problem-solving, faster and more aligned.
With the needs of the organization, and one last thing, if you think you can Ignore this and barrel ahead with what you’ve been doing in the past. Well guess: What too, will get chosen for you by the very nature of the process? You’re, better Off being in the driver’s seat, how many do you get to pick you get to pick two Okay, now I’ve got a quick favor to ask. I started my first blog on YouTube in 2007, this past December, I deleted that account.
Why well I want to test the Tactics and techniques that I use for clients on myself, you see each year for Several years now I delete my followers on Twitter and December and I start over I’ve been doing this because it forces me to stay relevant by having to rebuild My account every year this year I decided to add Youtube to the mix, so I deleted the previous YouTube account that I had for 12 years and I’m starting over from zero, so I have a favor to ask.
Please head Over and subscribe to my youtube blog and mention my blog to your nerdy Marketing friends on MySpace and on your CompuServe listservs Thanks again, I hope you learned a thing or two in this article and that you’ll Come back and visit me again:
What exactly is that social media management is a tool that you use to schedule your posts on your social media profiles ahead of time, one of the things when you start at your new business. You have this list of all these things that you need to do. There’s this, I always say, there’s all these pieces of a puzzle and you need to put them together and every person needs to figure out what works best for them like.
How am I going to schedule my time, one of the things when you’re scheduling, instead of looking at every day, I need to do ABCD and E to start looking at chunking your time. So once you understand what those puzzle pieces are, then you can start chunking that information you’re not really going to know all of that in the beginning, and just all you just keep learning all those pieces if that makes sense, but one of the things you’re doing Is posting whether you’re posting making YouTube articles because you want to promote your business with search engine, optimization or you’re? Doing your business using social media? There’s two different kinds of marketing: this buffer is for people, that market went social media, so you’re marketing on Facebook or Instagram Twitter.
Those different things that you’re looking for engagement, okay and maybe you’re bored, maybe you’re posting ads or things like that. So buffer is a system where you can go in and schedule ahead of time, so I’m going to Chuck my posting, so I might take one day every month and let’s say I want to post four times a week in my Facebook on my Facebook. Maybe I want to post five times on Instagram or daily or whatever it is.
You can go in and post for the entire month and just sit there in one day and knock it out. Now you might say: well that’s a lot. That’s like nine post day! Well, you can use the same post for your Facebook as you do Instagram, and that’s what you’re going to see what’s really cool about buffer, you can kind of go to different platforms in one one push of a button and that’s what I love about this one.
All right, so, let’s look at some. The first thing I want to jump into. I know everybody first thing they want to know is well how much does it cost, because, especially when you’re new you’re, always pinching, pen and you’re, always looking for that way to make money online and not spend any money? But I want to tell you – and we all fought that way in the beginning and then the more you dig in you find out.
Yes, you do have to spend money who need certain tools for your business and that’s why I wanted to do this series on different social media platforms or tools, because I want you to really research and pick the one that’s best for you and they’re all different. So I’m not doing a tutorial, we’re not going in and I’m not showing you how to use it, because every single tool, every single one of these platforms, that I’ve been sharing they go in and they’ll, give you a tutorial and teach you how to do it And most of them give you a 30-day free trial or two week free trial, so you can go in and and do it for free.
I do have a playlist that I am creating. The link is below where I have all of these different social media tools, management tools that I’ve been reviewing they’re all there. So if you like, what you see – and you want to look at other ones – then hit the playlist link below, doesn’t cost you anything just go down there and look and see what else is out there and again I don’t have everything on the planet down there.
I’r just building this and as I find them, I’m offering them to you, so you can see which one’s best for you, because I think understanding and getting the one that’s best, for you is the most important thing in your business without going out and wasting a Lot of money, so this one here when I went to look at the pricing it there is a free account, but I want you to look at right away. Everyone says: oh, it’s a free account.
I’r going to take that before you even do any research. I want you to decide how many platforms, how many of my platforms do. I want to schedule my posts on and then what does my schedule look like, and I want you to do that before you even start digging into these okay, and this is why look at here it says: pricing, free, okay, so it’s free for free who doesn’t Like free, but one, you can only be on three social accounts.
Now you might say. Well, you know what I’m only on two, so that works. Excellent three is not bad, that’s not even a negative, but another thing. It says one user, that’s fine to your one-man, show right now. You don’t really have anybody that you’re hiring. This, isn’t your business where you’re out posting for other people, one is perf. This is the thing you need to look at. You can only schedule 10 posts.
A month, that’s not going to do you any good, you might as well be scheduling daily because you’re going to be getting on there every other day scheduling those 9 posts that we just talked about. So I personally, if you have that information laid out, I think the pro account looks better, because here you can go on to 8 different social accounts and again you may not have a let’s stick with the two.
But if you go down, you can schedule a hundred posts, so you probably could schedule six weeks out if you’re doing nine posts a day four on Facebook, five on Instagram, you could schedule out and not add six weeks and get that knocked down. So, look at that. You want the tool to help you, you don’t want it to become frustrating and one more thing that you have to read. So what you do is you post out for six months and then put on your calendar? Okay, I need to do this again.
Another chunk of time this day, I’m going to dedicate to it six weeks from now, and that’s all I’m going to do all days, get my posts on there now something that buffer does. That, I think, is another big big plus is they are known for their queue and you’re like well? What does that mean? They have a queue where you can keep all of your posts and you can recycle them again, so that is a plus some of these social media platforms do not allow you to do that.
There’s some different. You know situations so you got to read for that kind of stuff, but this one does you’re able to do that. Now. Here’s a picture. I told you, it was like a button that you just hit. Well, you could say: look I’m on Facebook and Twitter and LinkedIn, and I want to post this one thing on the all three account. So you make your posts down here and then you go. Okay, click! Click! Click! I want to put it on all three of them and then down at the bottom.
You schedule it on this certain day. Now, typically, if most of your followers probably aren’t on all of your accounts, but if you’re somebody that maybe a lot of your followers are, then that might not be something that you want to do is post the same thing. Three times you got ta, you know pay attention to your audience, but a lot of people tell me you know what I don’t have the same people following me on Twitter as I do Instagram it’s two different groups of people, and so, if that’s true, then just Click it and put the same post, but look how easy that is, and then it goes into a queue like a list where it saves it, and you can go back in and recycle it now.
You might say. Well how often should I recycle my posts? I from what I’ve read you want to take recycle every two to three months. So if you have three months worth the posts, just go back in and recycle them again, and maybe you can mix them up and maybe add some new stuff. So this isn’t something you’re going to constantly be doing so then, when you go back to that chunk of time where you say today is posting scheduling day, it gets easier and easier because you’re just adding in some fresh information and recycle information and recycling, some old Information, so that’s where this online business stuff starts to get easier, because a lot of the foundational work that you have to do is in place and ready for you to keep using it.
So I just wanted to give you that one little tip all right. Here’s an example of how you schedule you can go in and say these are the exact times that I want to schedule and on the exact days, and you can go in there and change it up like I said you might look at your analytics and it Might say you know nobody is looking at your stuff on Sundays, nobody’s even clicking it. Well, maybe you won’t post on Sunday after that, or maybe only post once that day, just to keep your posts going and fresh.
So those are things to look at now. I’r going to show you the pros and the cons and remember I have been going over some other already. So let’s talk about the pros and the cons of using buffer a pro, it’s very easy and simple to follow. Once you go in there, you can use that free account and, like I said, if you’re serious, you already know, you’ve gone in and used the trial account. You know this is what you want.
I highly recommend you move up to that that next account for $ 15 a month and it’s very good with scheduling. You can do it throughout the week and you can adjust each schedule for every day. So you don’t have to go in and say and every single day I’m doing the same thing. You can change it up here and there and it has very limited analytics but it’ll be enough. Remember buffer is not a one-stop shop like sprout social sprout where sprout social, sprout social is a one-stop shop and it does everything it gives you like who’s following you, what kind of engagement I mean it really goes into detail if you’re only looking for a place To post to get that one job chunked and you know off your plate every day, then this would be a good, simple format.
So you have to think about your needs. Another nice thing you can use different extensions that will make buffering even easier chrome has different extensions that help with some of these social media platforms and buffer allows you to use those extensions. Now I added a few other things. Some of the social media like which one was it HootSuite, does not allow you to use shortened links for your posts.
Sometimes people like to use a shortened link and then they like to track it on their own, maybe through pretty links or something like that off their website. And again, if you don’t know about all that, but if you’re into tracking this one will allow you to use outside shortened link programs where HootSuite will not allow you, they want everything to stay internal. So if that’s important to you, that’s a plus, it does have a queue where at list Q means list where you can keep all of your posts.
So you can recycle. So that’s a plus, and you can also go in and repost or retweet Twitter as retweets is like a repost. You can do that on Twitter as well as of today on here now. There could be more features that are at it beyond what I’m talking about today, but those are some things in a nutshell. Now, let’s go down to the cons, the analytics are very simple and that to me it’s not really a negative, but if you’re really looking for some in-depth analytical stuff, then this program is probably not for you again and I just talked to just said it a Moment ago, it’s not like an all-encompassing one-stop shop for all your social media stuff, it’s think of it think of buffer more as a scheduler to save me, the time and hassle that I don’t have to go into every Platt form every morning and do all my Scheduling for the day, I can do it at the beginning of the month and knock it out for all my platforms and then just do it one once a month and chunk it.
Okay, so there’s buffer down below, like I said, I have a link for a playlist. I have a link to goes to buffer. I do not have an affiliate account to that. I’r just trying to give you some help. You with your research. There is a guide to earning income online down there if you’re, if you’re, looking at this and you’re like wow, I don’t even have a business online, never thought about that, but I’d love to post all over the place.
Well, you can. This is something a tool you would use for your business to help you there. So god, you know, there’s a free guide there to give you some information and, of course, subscribe subscribe to my blog I post every day, and I want to thank you for making it this far and reading the article. I hope it was helpful. Give me thumbs up if it was or comment. If you have any questions, if you have information, add I love when people read it, who might be an expert with buffer? I’r not an expert.
I just did some research to give to you, but if you are an expert, you have more information. Add by all means. Do it that does not bother me because again, I don’t know everything and I know a little bit of everything how’s that not a lot about one thing: alright, so there you go again. Thank you for reading and I’ll see you on the next article.
Doesn’t it just gives you an opportunity to compare the two systems, but today we’re only going to go over get stencil um. Basically, it’s a simple image creation tool for social media marketers now you might say, but I’m not a social media marketer.
I just want something to create my graphics when I post on Facebook, or when I post on Instagram or Pinterest, I I’m not really a marketer, but I have fun creating images and I’d like to look at the tool. This is for you as well now what I’m going to start out with today, I’m going to show you the pricing and then we’re going to go over the free review of the free product. Okay, because, in my opinion, I don’t care if you even know how to use something, you should always start with the free product before you put money out and make sure it’s what you want.
So let’s go over the pricing. Basically, you can see here I’m going to move this up a little bit free is over here on the left, and then you have your pro and then your unlimited any time. This is why I like to start out with free, because if I start out with the free product and then I know, I really am going to use it, and I want to upgrade – I always go with the annual fee because you save money that way.
If you go monthly you’re going to pay a little bit more, but that’s the way to go if you’re not sure, but I think you would be able to decide once you use it for free. But let’s go down a little bit. We’re going to go in the free account today, where you can only save ten images a month, so it absolutely is just a test product because, if you’re not in social media, marketing and you’re, just using it for fun, ten might be enough.
But definitely if you’re in social media marketing you’re wanted you’re going to want to be able to do 50 a month, which is a good. Almost two images per month, you’re limited to the photos, which is not a big deal because there’s so many in there you’re limited to icons but again, there’s a lot in there and I’ll show you all this. You can upload up to 50 images and over here you’re going to have you can upload as many as you want and you can create 10km since we’re going to go over that you can keep favourites and you can do ten Instagram posts per month.
So over here everything’s a little bit, you have more that you can do once you start paying for it. You have fonts that you can bring in watermarks logos, font uploads, which is I’ll go over, that a premium support a lot of programs. Do that if you have a pay more for a monthly fee, you’re going to get your support a lot faster? That’s just common! With most software tools, you can create up to 25 collections, keep up to 100 favorites and 25 Instagram posts per month, so okay, so that doesn’t mean anything until we get in there.
But I just wanted to show you that I’m getting I’m showing you the free program right now as opposed to the paid one. So when you log in you’re, going to go to get stencil calm and exactly like it sounds get stencil calm, it’s going to come in and it’s going to say you have ten images for the month. I already used one because I just wanted to review it. A little bit before we did this article, and this is what you’ll see you’re going to see some photos over here to the side and in the center.
This is the area where, when I move a photo over, this is where I’m going to do my work. Where I’m going to create my graphic image that I want to create – and over here you have different features right here – is your selection of photos that you can use now. If I open this up where the drop-down arrow is, I can get photos in different areas. I have nature up right now, but you can get patterns, people space and, as you can see, there’s a lot of choices here.
So even though it’s free, I’m just starting out, there’s plenty here that you can pull from okay. So that’s your feature! Your photos go to the next one, and this is templates, so you can even upload a template, that’s already there and maybe change the font. So let me show you as an example: there is a template, it’s going to load it over there. Unless you know this, one is not available, see they’re always going to be trying to get you to go up, so we’re just going to cancel we’re not going to upload.
But what happens is that template would show up and you could change the the quote or the message in the center. Okay, let’s go down a little bit further, there’s featured quotes, I’m going to go back to the top, I’m going to just kind of create as we go, but let’s go ahead and put a photo. Let’s use. Let’s see this one looks nice with the beach, so I’m going to put a photo. I just clicked it and there it is.
I have my photo that I’m going to use for the background. Well now I’m going to go down here to quotes. I can take one of these quotes that are here and click it and it automatically puts it on there. Now these are the featured quotes. If I go in, I could get a business quote. Friendship: let’s look at some business quotes, let’s assume you’re into social media, marketing, time, energy and focus. These are the resources at your disposal every each and every day ideas are like rabbits, you get a couple, learn how to handle them and pretty soon you have a dozen.
So obviously I don’t really have a business picture here. So let me see I’m going to do a quote that might have to do with motivation. Let’s see if there’s anything or inspiration, let’s look for an inspirational quote, I’m kind of inspired. When I look at that here, you go be present in all things and thankful for all things. So, let’s put that there, but there it goes. My quote, went right up there.
I have the person that said the quote. We always want to give credit where credit is due. Now, I’m not going to change anything just yet. I just want you to see that I can put that quote there now. If I keep going, I have an upload button where there’s a little cloud and earlier I just played around, and I found a couple of background images that I thought would look cute with quotes on them. I can upload those here and I believe in the free account you had a limit of 25 uploads or something like that.
But that’s plenty if you’re just playing around getting to know it. The next one is logos and watermarks, and you do have to have an upgrade. So if you have a certain watermark, some people will make their images and will put their business name on there or their own name to kind of take credit for what they’re creating, and it is also another way if other people share it. They’re sharing it with your name on it, so it’s actually a very smart way of getting your name out there.
So definitely, if you’re interested in that, then your want to upgrade but again in the beginning, maybe not necessary, and here’s where I had played around and I saved some images. So let’s say I make this image today and it’s something that I think that I’ll keep using then I’m going to save it in my file here now. If I decide, I don’t want something like this one here. I just click it and I can delete it.
So you don’t have to keep everything there forever. Alright, let’s go back over here. We had quotes now, let’s play around with what we have. What can I do this right now, my font? I can click the font or the message, the the text, and I can change it and I’m going to show you the biggest thing that gets stenciled does that canva does not, and otherwise I think they’re both pretty comparable. But in my opinion this is the one thing that I always want to do and I can’t with canva but I’ll show you in a moment all right.
So I have comic sans ms. If I just hit that top arrow, I can change my fun that easily just just go up and click and there’s tons of fonts in here so again in the pro account, if you want to upgrade, you can bring your own font in so, let’s say you’re Already doing social media, you have your own WordPress, you pretty much have branded yourself with a certain font, and it’s not here. Well, you can bring your own font in and then, when you click my fonts and you’ll just upload it, and it will always be here for you, so that is one nice feature, but if you, if it doesn’t matter to you, everything is right here now, I’m Going to add, there’s a bubblegum sans.
I, like the Comic Sans, I’m going to go back to that real, quick that look pretty good. It came up that way all right now. What can I do from there? I have my text size. I can make it really. Look how big I can go. You can’t go that big with canva canva is limited. I’ve seen people make thumbnails on their YouTube articles and you’ll see that there sometimes their font is huge. Now what I’m going to have to do since I made it big and made it small again, I’m going to have to put an enter in there there to do it to two lines.
So there we go. I can just that simply change my text. I can change the line, hi see how I can separate them or make them closer. I can put a shadow in there. Read the fun read how they they start getting a little bit of a shadow. They look like 3d, oh they’re, not getting much of one on this one. For some reason. I don’t know why, okay earlier when I did it, it kind of made a shadow, it might be because there’s too many too much text there, but I can make it bold.
I can make it italic, I can underline it. I can adjust it to the center to the side and then I can change the text color here now right now, it’s black black works. It’s fine, but let’s say I want to change it to red and it’s that simple go back to black outline. This is what lets I’m going to change the text color and I’m going to make it let’s say: yellow well, maybe not, let’s go yellow now read you can hardly see that.
Well now I can outline it in black now. Look at that, how how much it pops that’s something you cannot do on canva if the person that introduced this program to me was pointing that out, because I saw one of their graphics and I thought oh, how did you do that, and that is pretty cool? How you can outline your text and then you can change your background color. If you want I’m going to leave the background the way it is now here, you can move things forward or you can move them back like right now.
My text is in the front, but when you’re starting to do like multiple layers and things, you can move things to the foreground and to the background, and things like that now I can duplicate this. If I want now, I’m finished with that part now, if I click again, I will get rid of that box now notice here, I’m inside of the text box. Okay. So if I click out that text box with all my features goes away now, I’m going to click on the graphic the photo and now I have filters and things I can add.
I can make it black and white, I can change it, and so I have lots of choices of how I can change that filter. I can make it blurry in the back. You know some people kind of blur the back out, see that and you can make it transparent, so lots of lots of different features on your background as well, you can lighten it, you can darken it. We can go back up here to the you know, so you can see there’s a color overlay if you want to put a color over it and you can choose over here.
So you can get a pretty fancy with this. You can make it horizontal vertical and if you want to upload a different background, you can upload right from here and then here you can make a resizable image. So why would I want to change my image? Well, maybe you don’t want the image to be the whole background. Maybe you just want it to be down like that, so you can play around and get really really creative.
With this, when you’re finished, you can save it now, that’s not something I would save. To be honest, I was just showing you what it did. I didn’t want to sit here and get creative but, like I said, my favorite feature is outlining the font and the fact that the font can be any size that I want. I really like that feature, so they have saved the image and I’ll notice. I’r down to 8, so I can only do 10 a month if I go with the free feature, but if you’re just looking at it to see, if it’s something you want, you can create 10 images and see how you like working it.
If it’s, if you’re using canva or a different program, you can kind of compare now what I’m going to do is download it and you can download it as a JPEG. You can ask for different dimensions. You can print it or just digital standard or maximum. Okay. So I’m going to cross that off and then here you have preview and share, you can preview it on a mobile preview. That’s what it looks like and that’s a desktop preview.
Now this is what’s cool too. What I really like about this is: you can hit Twitter over here and they’re going to resize it for Twitter. If you want to use it for Pinterest, see it resizes for there and then you can go ahead and post to your Pinterest account and go ahead and put it in here. You can pick the board. You want to put it on and post it directly, which is kind of cool. So if you are using Pinterest, I would highly recommend using this and again this one’s to Instagram.
The next one goes to buffer and then the last one is just share your image directly. So you have your own link. If you want to share it someplace else, so you have Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram and buffer. Alright. So there you go back to the pricing. I just wanted to show you: I have a link below if you want to check it out. It’s get stencil com, just in case you didn’t catch that and then, if you don’t want to do your own social media graphics, you can always hire it out to a freelancer.
Who can do it for you, I put a link below that. It says, hire a freelancer and just go to that site it’s and find somebody that can do it for you. A lot of people will hire social media managers. You don’t have to do it yourself. You really need to be looking at your business and figuring out what are the things that I’m going to do and what are the things that I want somebody else to do: you’re going to get to the point where you can’t do it all yourself, you’re going To find that you’re sitting on your computer 12 hours a day and not getting anything done so just gradually start deciding.
What can I hire out? What can I outsource and what can I do myself and that’s kind of what I do if it’s something I don’t like to do or I don’t feel comfortable doing then I outsource it and typically, if I enjoy doing it, I do it myself. So that’s kind of the the way I do it at this point, my business all right. I hope that was helpful.

These are two social media platform planners. What is a planner when you start getting bigger in your business, and you have more than one social media platform where you’re posting there are planners out there, where you can actually sit down in one day and plan out all your posts for the month or for The week or, however, you want to do it, each planner comes with different features, so today we’re going to compare each clincher and HootSuite, and I have a bonus for you today, I’m going to give you the name of the app that I use to compare these And you can plug in any social media planner in there and do your own research, because there’s lots of different ones and I’m not going to sit here and tell you, which is the right one for you.
So let’s go ahead and get started. Let’s look at e clincher and HootSuite now, like I said yesterday, I showed you I’m going to give you a quick review of what a planner is. Basically you go in. You make a post, you tell the planner where you want to post it. You pup. You add your own accounts and then you can plan them and I’m just going to show you real quick. How easy it is you can schedule, it comes up, asks you what time and then it posted for you.
So it’s pretty much that simple click. Click! Click you’ve got it. The time that you would have involved would be planning your posts, but you can take one post and post it on to 10 different media platforms, and that’s what’s cool about the planner. If you choose, you can save them in a queue like a an organized folder and you can recycle them. So that’s what’s nice about planners now, let’s go ahead and look at each clincher.
I just went in and this is what you really want to look at. Is what are you getting for your money and they have three different plans: basic premium and agency. You can see right here, the different prices and I just went right to their website. You can go in there yourself and look and get a closer view, but you can see there’s a big difference in the money. The biggest thing you want to look at if you’re new is how many profiles can I plan on and that’s the biggest thing and right here for their basic 10 profiles.
Now, if you’re starting to get bigger, you can do 20 and it says 3 users. Some people will hire virtual assistants to go in and do their posting and planning for them. Other people are running their own agency and therefore they can have unlimited. You brands in there and 40 different profiles, so it can get pretty huge depending on what your needs are pretty much. If you scroll down, everybody gets the same thing.
It starts your bottom plan, pretty much. You lose things like media library, CRM integration and team collaboration, and things like that. A little bit of analytics aren’t available to you. But again, if you’re, not a huge agency or you don’t have that many accounts, I think you could probably survive on the basic account for $ 59 a month. Now, let’s look at HootSuite, I have found what I’ve gone into the different plans.
Most of them do. The same thing, honestly, the difference is you’re going to find is: maybe they don’t post on Instagram, for example, where another one will and that’s really what you want to look at besides the money now here, you can get ten social profiles for only $ 29 a Month so there’s a difference you may go in and find they have a 30 day free trial, as opposed to the 14 days. I highly recommend that you go in check out the free trial so that you can make sure it’s the right platform for you, because again there are so many now.
Let’s look at apples, apples. I found this app and I’m going to put give you the link of it down below. It’s called get app and I can plug in any social media platform that I want and then I can compare them so here we have HootSuite. I’r going to take this one off. I had, I did add sprout social, but I’m going to take it off because so we can see there. You can add up to four at a time so today we’re talking about a clincher and HootSuite and you can visit their website.
It takes you directly there and we’re going to scroll down okay. I went ahead and put a social sprout social back in there and I kind of changed my screen for you here, because I want you to see how you can compare just by adding another social media, planner and and figure out which one is best for you. As you can see the overview they’re pretty much the same in what they offer you can use iPhone.
You can go on the web. Android typical customers are all the same support. The only one that’s different is a clincher does not offer phone support. So if that’s important to you write that down do a list of pros and cons and then you can go in and they have screenshots to show you what they look like. So if that’s important to you, how easy are they to use? How easy are they to navigate? You can go into the different ones and see how easy, now that earlier, I showed you a clincher very, very easy to use all right and now we have pricing, and this is when you want to start looking now.
Hootsuite says they start at $ 19, a month, a clinchers, forty-nine and sprout socials ninety-nine. We were just over there at a clincher and I believe it’s already 59, so these may not be totally accurate. Hootsuite was actually 29, so these are a little bit behind in the pricing. What I like about a clincher is: there is no credit card required when you go in and look at the free trial when you go to HootSuite you’d have to give your credit card a lot of people, don’t like to do that.
So if that’s important to you, you might want to take that off your list. All of them have great ratings and, let’s keep going down and again you can see sprout social is losing some of the features as we go and what’s interesting is they’re the most expensive. So there you have it. I want to show you what I use. It’s a lot cheaper and I highly recommend that you look at it. It’s called post, planner and post planner starts out at $ 3 a month.
Now you only get three social platforms, but if you’re just starting out and you’re just trying to get a feel for it, get the three. Do it start out with that three three social platforms get them going, get yourself in the groove for your planning things and then later go up to the $ 9 a month and you have the social 10 social accounts. I have done a article on post planner and how to navigate it.
I actually did a series of four articles. I will go ahead and post the one where I went in and navigate it um, but this will probably do what you need and it’s only three dollars a month or nine dollars a month. Again it depends on what you need. I hope this was helpful, but I am going to give you that app so that you can go in and start looking at all the different social media platforms, the planners and do some comparison on your own.
It’s a big decision so and it’s it’s something that the reason I say it’s a big decision. You don’t want to spend a lot of time, putting all these posts in there and planning them out and the deciding it’s not the right platform for you, because then you got to turn around and do it all over again. So take the time to research go in try out the tre free trials, maybe only post a few things see how you like them, then, when you decide what you want, go in there big time and get a lot of stuff planned and save yourself some time Thumbs up, if this was helpful and subscribe to my blog, I have a article every single day that will help you with your business, whether it’s affiliate, marketing or just working online, alright, and don’t forget to click those links below that’s to help you out with your Social media planner
What does that mean? It’s a tool that will help you post your social media ahead of time, so you can schedule it post on several several different platforms and then forget about it and then till the next time. So that’s what a social media management tool is now this one. I’r going to show to you today I’ve been reviewing different ones, so, if you want to see all of them, you’re searching go to my playlist, I have a link below.
I also have a link down there for sprout social. The one I’m showing you today in case this is something you want to dig in deeper too, but I’m just going to do a basic review to tell you what it offers, and maybe this is something that you’re looking for. It’ll, save you a little bit of time, so, let’s dig in my name is Vanessa de boules and I have a blog called affiliate marketing mastery where I teach you how to earn a passive income.
However, I also teach you on my blog different things like email, marketing, social media management platforms and tools, different funnels that you can use so all the different tools you can use to build a business. So, if you’re not doing affiliate marketing, it’s okay, because there’s lots of information that will apply to your business and I post every single day – and I guarantee you most of my articles – will be roughly 10 minutes give or take.
I try not to stay here too long, because I do value your time alright. So let’s look at this real quick now do know. In a nutshell, this one seems a little bit more advanced than the others that I’ve looked at. However, if you here’s my thing, we’re going to look at it and then we’ll talk about the cost and why you would want this one or why you wouldn’t? Okay, I’m not going to lie to you. If you’re brand spanking new, you might think well shoot.
I don’t want that, but there are certain people who are new. That would want this, so the world will talk about that in a minute, but it is kind of like an all-in-one box, the one-stop shop. It not only helps you post your social media posts on different platforms, but it also helps you to analyze a lot of different things like your engaged and who’s who’s. Following you, who’s reading you and all these different analytics, which I think, if you’re really big into the social media platform, this really does a lot.
Now, if you’re just looking for something to schedule your posts and you’re not really into the social aspect or engagement part, then this one probably isn’t for you. So I’m not going to you know. I just want to point that out. So you see some of the different things that are like I said Henery to either. Here is a snapshot of some of the em of posting. What I love about this one, any one of the social media platforms that I show you will have a way for you to put your post into a calendar and it’s very visual.
I love that, but what I love about this is, it will tell you hey, you can take the same post and put it on three or four different places and we’re going to show you where that post is that’s what I love about this I have been Using I basically used a social media planner just to post, because in my marketing I’m more into the search based marketing, where I do more into keywords and things like that.
I’r not really out trying to throw ads and things in front of people as much as I want them to search for me. So there’s two different kinds of marketing, but this I love the one that I’m using is post planner and it just basically I can go into the calendar and put them in, but it doesn’t show me like hey the same post is in three different places. I really like this feature, because you can see it, you can see where you’ve posted them and you can use the same content in different places, so that is a plus in my ice now, the next one.
I wanted you to see here that you in the analytics that you can look at your audience, demographics and that’s really important if you’re on Instagram Facebook, all these different places, where you’re trying to target a certain audience and a lot of times when we’re in business. We target a certain audience and then, as you go along for several months, you might start getting these analytics and you’ll go wow.
I was targeting females 20 to 35 and iPhone that females from 35 to 50 are following me. So you know, then you can rethink your messaging and stuff because for some reason, you’ve attracted a different crowd and that’s going to happen. That’s why just a tip when you’re asked to pick your market go ahead and pick one and don’t overthink it and talk to that audience and then start looking at your analytics and sometimes you might have to tweak things.
I know I spent a lot of time with that and really I it made me really frustrated and when analytics started coming in I’m like oh okay, this is where I need to be talking or targeting all right. So that’s just an example. Here’s another snapshot of your followers, so you can see that 52 % of this one is male, 48 % is female, which is got a 50/50, but you see your Twitter stats, the different things and then your daily engagement.
Remember you want it if you’re really into the social engagement part, you can track that. Did this post really get people to engage, because that’s what I’m looking for and that’s what I want to track and it’s right here sprout social will track that for you. Let’s talk about some of the pros and cons before we do that, though, I want to bring up the pricing because I told you it was pricey, so I want you to see it and again don’t let this turn you off again.
I don’t use it because I’m not into the social engagement part, but you do get a 30-day free trial go in and try it out and and and and play with it now the standard one you can already look at the prices is $ 99 a month In like wow, that’s a lot, but if you are brand new and you’re already rocking it on Instagram or Facebook and you’ve got thousands of followers and you love to engage and you’re just that person then go for it you this plot.
This program would probably be good for you you’re already doing that social media part. Now you just have to find a way to schedule and then add that element. If you are looking to start a business where you might have other people coming in. Maybe your your helping other people, their social media platform, then you would want to look at the professional account or maybe you have a virtual assistant coming in to help.
You know I’ve talked about this before, but not everybody sees every article. So if you follow every single article, I apologize for being repetitive, but you can start a business where you will post for other people and they pay you to do that. And then you would absolutely want one of these bigger memberships so that you can handle everything. But here’s the biggest thing on a standard to professional.
You can only do five social profiles and over unprofessional you can post on ten at a time. So again, if you’re brand new, you probably are not on five platforms right now. You hopefully have learned that you should be focusing on one and really growing it, and once you are in them the move that you know the groove of posting on it all the time you’ve got it going. You’ve got a good following then you add another one.
I know that you see all these gurus out there and they’re all over the place, one. They probably have people helping them and two they weren’t all over the place in the beginning, so just focus on one and again I’ve got postplanner down there. It’s I think it’s like three dollars a month. It’s really cheap, that’s you know and it’ll. You know. I think you can get on three platforms. Three to five.
I can’t remember right off the top of my head, but and you go in and you can post and that helps you get it started if you get really big into the social media things. I definitely would would suggest this one again, I’m not an affiliate on this. I’r just trying to give you some information to help. You make some good decisions in your business all right. So, that’s that, in a nutshell, try out the 30 day free trial go in there and play with it you’re going to learn more from actually doing it than listening to me and that’s why I don’t typically like to do tutorials, because these programs all have tutorials And you can fly around and look in directions that you need to go and not just follow where I think you need to go if that makes sense.
Alright. So let’s look at the pros and the cons. Okay of this is it this preference, some of the pros it’s gorgeous, it’s very pretty, and some people like that, it’s much more attractive than some of the others. It’s very the layout is really nice. It’s very easy to look at easy to work with. So it’s not, maybe we could say it could be social media management for dummies right. It’s very, very easy.
They do have excellent from support tech, support and customer support. So that’s important, especially if you’re new and you’re, not real techie, and it’s headache free you can. You can go on to this platform and figure it out and it’s not real stressful and I know especially if you’re, not real techie, that can be so stressful if you’re trying to figure something out – and you just want to cry sometimes and with the support and The flow and how easy it is to use with this platform you’re getting your money’s worth if that’s important to you now, let’s look at some of the cons.
Of course, I one of the cons definitely would be that it is pricier. I didn’t list that, but it is pricier, but in my opinion you get what you pay for it like anything else. If you pay low prices, you’ll get less services, you pay higher, you get more! So that’s just the way it is, but from here I have done a review of buffer and sprout social is not as advanced as buffer with the scheduler. So you again want to go into each of them and see now you might get on this one and say you know what this is advanced enough.
I don’t need anything more advanced, so don’t need to be on buffer. At that point, you might want to start comparing prices. Facebook, as of this article, has not allowed people to like your content could be fixed by the time this gets out. So Facebook is always changing their rules. So again, there may be other things that they don’t allow as we go forward alright, so that is it for today and don’t forget to hit the sprout social link below again, I’m not an affiliate for that hit the link and go in and try there 30-day Free trial, they do not have a free account, so if you’re looking for free forever, then don’t even take your time to look because you already know going in that.
It’s about a hundred dollars a month. If that just scares you and you you don’t want to do it, then don’t look at it. Go look at some of the other ones that I’ve listed. So I’m going to also put down below my playlists for social media media management tools. There’s other articles in there that you can look at and I also am offering you a guide to earning income online if you’re looking at this and you’re like you know, I want to make money online, I don’t know where to begin.
I have a free guide. You can click that and look at that as well, and that’s all I got for you today. So of course, don’t forget to subscribe, give me a thumbs up and all that crap, but um I put articles out every day and, like I said, keep them. You know in that window of 10 minutes so that and value your time. So you know if you have any questions asked and I can create articles based on your needs.
This is for you, it’s not for me. So definitely put your comments below. Let me know what you’re thinking, let me know what you need. Alright till I see you on the next article. Thank you for reading
Today I want to show you how to use lumely it’s a social media management tool, and I want to show you how easy it is to use. So you can schedule some of your social media posts. There are some posts that you want to keep them upgraded or updated and on schedule, specifically your Facebook fan page. If you’re making sure that you’re getting some posts and every day to show activity, then you want to make sure it’s scheduled.
So you don’t have to go in every day and do it now. If you have a Facebook group, typically in a group, you can schedule them as far in advance as you want. That feature is built into the group, but it is not built in to your fanpage last time. I checked if somebody knows a way they can share below, but I have found myself going in and certain time every day you know making sure I get that post in or I miss it.
So I started using lumely now this one here is a demo account and then I set up for you – and this is what your page looks like when you come in. There is a 15-day free trial, so go in and play around with it, and I’m going to show you a couple of features that I really like about this. It doesn’t only post to Facebook and post to other places as well and, for instance, I like to build my content on YouTube and for me to go into several different places to share my articles.
It takes time I can come in here to lumely and put out the same article on all my platforms at once. Now I don’t go in and make four and five posts a day, I’m strategic. I pay attention to what I want to post and then I put it out on all my platforms at once and it saves me a lot of time. So I don’t want you to think that I’m saying go out and post on all these social media places. Four and five times a day: that’s not what I’m suggesting that you do, that’s being busy, not productive.
I just talked about that a couple days ago. This is being productive. This is saving you time and you’re being intentional, with the content that you’re putting out lumely. Does that for you, this is the first thing that you have to do is go through and set up your account. I did that. I have a article at the end of this article on how to set the account up. So I’ve brought you through those steps, and I made this demo company account now in that account I’m going to go ahead and post on a calendar.
I love this view. I am global. I like to see everything at once, so I can go in and look at my calendar and say: okay on Fridays, let’s go down here on Tuesday. I want to add a post. So let’s do that and I want my post to be posted around three o’clock in the afternoon, so we’re going to build a post from there now it takes time to get this all together but, like I said once it’s there, it goes to all your social Media platforms at once now I’m going to call it.
Let’s say I’m going to do a YouTube article that I made on email, marketing, okay, for instance, and I might label it email if I want. If I want to sort my posts, I can do that. Then I hit next and you just keep going through the steps. Now, here’s where you, when you set it up, you can do Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, LinkedIn, Google, and I can’t remember what that one was. But anyway, I think I have mine set up right now on Pinterest and Facebook, but I’m just going to do Facebook.
Let’s do both of them Facebook and now it’s saying which board do you want to put it on because of that, I’m not going to put it on there, but well, let’s do that. I have a take that back. I think I have an email marketing board. So let’s go ahead and put that email marketing right there say so I’m going to put an email marketing article out to those two places. So then I hit next and I might say, I’m just going to say email marketing, blah blah blah.
Maybe I’m sharing five steps on how to make your emails better or so more people will open them and right here I can download my article I can go into my article account, get the article link that I want to share and bring it over here. I’r not going to do it right now because it takes time to load it, but just so you see I’ve got emails made about email marketing. I can be intentional about posting something about that.
I’r going to spend a little bit more time. I’r going to talk about. Are you struggling with email? Marketing here are five tips that will help your email, marketing rate open rate go up or something like that. Now, let’s say for the sake of this article. Let’s say I don’t want to share a article. Maybe you want to share a pic with an inspirational quote or something like that, because it’s nice to put those inspirational quotes in there to encourage people, and let’s say you want to put a photo in there.
Well, maybe you don’t have a photo. This is a nice feature, I can go here and it takes me right to unsplash where I can go in and browse and get a photo. So let’s say I want to do a photo with the sunset as an example, and you know just to kind of inspire people and have a quote with it that I type in and here’s some sunset photos, and these are free and you can pick the one That you want, let’s pick that one so then I’m going to insert it like.
I said I started out talking about a article, but I wanted that to come up pretty quick. It takes less time, but you have these right at your fingertips. So maybe you already have a selection of quotes that you’d like to use – or maybe you were talking to somebody about you – know taking some time to relax, don’t get overwhelmed. Sometimes you have to take time for yourself, and maybe you can write a nice post about that and then put a very inspiring photo with it.
So I just want to show you how you can do that so now we’re going to hit next and now it’s going to go to my Facebook, feed or my facebook stories, I’m going to leave it on the feed and here’s what I can do about Facebook As well and again I could put the quote: I could write a big long passage or I could write something about the article in Facebook. You can add more than one picture, so this is where I get to customize each one of my platforms.
Pinterest. I probably need to just put a picture put something quick on it. Not too many words send them to my article here in Facebook. I could put three or four photos to talk about a sequence of something, but I can spend a little bit more time. Have more lengthy text, so I can each one of my social media platforms. I can make the the content fix the platform if that makes sense, but I’m talking about the same thing on all of my different platforms, all right.
So let’s go to the next page, and this is kind of neat on Facebook. You can select a target or audience. Are you trying to select an audience that you’re trying to meet and again? This is something that you want to take a little bit of time. If you’re just trying to hit everybody, then just hit everybody, but if you’re looking at just hitting certain people, you can go ahead and target an age like.
I don’t really want it hit it. You know a 13-year old, so I might up that to 24 or something like that all right and then I’m going to go next and then schedule my post. I can save it as a draft and come back or I can create it right now and or I can schedule it. So it’s that simple and let’s go ahead and schedule it now and then I want to take you back to the calendar to show you what that looks like okay, all right.
So let’s go back to our calendar and there you go. I have to pose. Oh, that’s, not pretty cool. So if you have a certain system that you use for Pinterest, maybe you want to post everyday, maybe Facebook – you have certain days of the week but you’re going to see those little social media logos there and it lets. You know. What’s already scheduled and what isn’t you can also go here and look at the list view which is kind of nice, and you can see exactly what you have posted and you can go in there and edit it if you’d like, and you can duplicate your post.
So earlier, when I talked about setting up lumely, I also talked about I’m going to say this again. Let’s say I have three months worth of posts that I made. I can go in here and duplicate the post and reschedule it for four months later, or maybe I want to do six months of it at a time and recycle everything again. That’s what I love about scheduling that I can sit here. I can take the time I can get it all scheduled out and then once everything is in here you can start recycling everything that you have and it just looks fresh because you know – and I know on Facebook, especially you’re – not getting every single post – that every Single one of your friends is creating.
It just doesn’t happen that way so and if you have a friend, that’s getting a lot of your posts, they’re not going to remember something and post it 90 days ago. Maybe they will and then it must have been a really good post, but in general most people aren’t going to remember – or maybe they didn’t read it fully the last time and they see it again. They want to read it but recycle your content and that’s where the job starts getting easier because you’re getting smarter, you’re working, smarter, not harder lumely.
I love it. It’s very, very, very easy to use, and you have six platforms that you can post to now. A lot of people ask about Instagram they. You cannot schedule a post to automatically post on Instagram, but you can post it and then it’s going to say when it’s time you can schedule it excuse me you can schedule it and then, when it’s time to post it you’re going to get a notification on Your phone or on your laptop, however, you set it up, it’s going to say it’s ready, then you just hit a button and so right now that’s the way.
It is lumely promises that they’re going to make it better, but that’s where it’s at so you still can schedule it, while you’re scheduling everything else. I hope that was helpful. I hope this is a tool that you can use this year to make your life easier and be more intentional, being more focused and give yourself more time for other things. Okay, so again, thank you for reading. If you have any questions, ask them below I’d.
Be happy to answer those for you don’t forget to subscribe to my blog hit that notification tab. I see I post every Monday, Wednesday and Friday on YouTube, so that I can help you build your business, especially in affiliate marketing. All right guys have a good one and I’ll see you in the next article
These are both scheduling platforms, where you can schedule your posts ahead of time, maybe do all of them in one day for the month for the week, however, you want to do it and then not have to worry about posting. You still want to go back and check for engagement, but you don’t have to worry about coming up with all these ideas constantly.
You could take one day really plan it out, post them, schedule them and then move on and not have to keep thinking about it. I think in online businesses the affiliate marketing online marketing digital marketing, all these different things – that’s one of the hardest things to do is to schedule your time and not feel like you’re all over the place. So there’s lots of tools out there to help you, and these are definitely two really good tools.
Yesterday I talked about five six different schedulers and in the end I told you that today I would compare HootSuite with buffer, because these two are pretty affordable. They’re really good for beginners and I’m going to give credit to Ben Beck. I did Google and found his article where he compared ten key factors, but today I’m only going to compare five. I tried to take the five factors that you might be looking at.
As a beginner, every platform gets more complicated and starts looking at things and sometimes as a beginner. All those things become daunting. So I wanted to just look at the five that you probably would be most interested in as a beginner. So let’s go ahead and get started. The first thing I want to do is give a quick overview. This is what the platform looks like on. Hootsuite HootSuite according to Ben, has a platform that is clunky.
It feels old compared to some of the new tools that are coming out. You know how Apple always has all the cool apps and just that real, clean, modern look. This one HootSuite still has more of a Microsoft. Look if that makes sense. So, even though it still has great features the functionality and all that the look of it is not as modern, if you, I guess, is the best way to say it. So this one also runs $ 29.
99 per month. It does have a free feature. You can so, I think, sign up for 30 days free and then you can still use it for free. If you don’t want some of the features, I did not get into that. What features you get at what price I just compared. Some of the five different features that I have listed here today, here’s buffer buffer. As you can see, it has a very first impression, really quick. It’s very clean, very easy to use interface kind of like a um easy to do for dummies right, but it just lacks some of the luster and the robust tools that HootSuite has and we’ll go into that in a moment.
So you have to be careful just because something looks easy and is easy it you have to look at what are the tools that I’m looking for it and does it do what I need things like HootSuite when I talk about the robust features, HootSuite out ways: Buffer with its scheduling, content, recommendation and reporting – and it has analytics so all those things are not with buffer. So if you look at an analytics and really trying to dig deep, then you will pay more and you will have those features with HootSuite.
Alright, let’s go ahead and start breaking them down. I had five different features and the first one was who has the widest coverage on social media accounts buffer? As you can see, you can post on five different accounts. As of the time of my comparison here, it may do more, obviously, depending on when you look at this, but Twitter, Facebook, Linkedin, app.Net and Google, I’m sure you’re, probably most concerned with the top three now look at who’s suite.
Not only do you have those, but you, if you’re a blogger and you’d like to use WordPress Foursquare. Those are definitely things that you want to use for HootSuite. It also goes into tumblr, blogger, Instagram, Google+, so objects more. There were others that it listed and I just stopped listing them, but HootSuite definitely allows you to post on more platforms so think about the platforms that you’re, using or even the ones you’re going to use in the future.
I try to even as a new marketer, sometimes in the beginning, when I first started, I was always going for okay, which one’s easier, but then I found myself switching to another platform when I started doing more in wanting more and that can be a pain. So now my philosophy is, if I’m in this and I’m going to make you know this a career out of this and make this my job. Then I want to have the best tools in the get-go and that way I don’t have to keep changing around.
That’s just my philosophy, so again, both of them will allow you to start for free. They have free programs, but you have to look and see what that entails. All right. Let’s look at another feature which one is easier to use buffer is simple with a cleaner. Looking layout, okay HootSuite is easy to use. It just doesn’t have the same look, so it really is a preference of. Do you like Apple or Microsoft, is kind of what I get from this buffers more of your Apple product.
Hootsuite is more of your Microsoft product. All right, let’s look at the next one scheduled posting. Obviously, if you’re looking at these different tools, which one’s going to post my or schedule my post more conveniently buffer, you can schedule your posts, but it is again not as robust as HootSuite the person that wrote. This article gave a score to these different things and HootSuite. By far it was raved about it has very powerful scheduling functionality.
Definitely hands-down wins in this area. So if posting is important to you, then you definitely want to go with HootSuite and and, like you just saw on the previous slide. Hootsuite also had more platforms that you could schedule, and so, if that’s the main reason you’re using this, that might be the one that you might choose ad hoc posting now. What is that ad hoc posting is when, let’s say, you’ve got everything scheduled for a month and then all of a sudden you decide.
I want to schedule something today, even though I’ve scheduled out for a month, that’s called ad-hoc posting. Were you kind of on the go posting? Is that a better way of saying it, but both of them use a chrome plug-in that helps you do that? But buffer is super super easy. You use the plug-in and buffer will even say: hey here’s a great place to put that and it kinda puts it there for you. If you use HootSuite, you have to go in and say here’s where I want to add it in now.
If you don’t do a lot of that, a lot of on the go posting then HootSuite is your go-to platform. But if you find yourself constantly posting on the go, then you might want to stick with buffer. Alright, let’s look at one more feature: what about content library buffer does not allow you to keep that much content on their platform. It’s not as large, doesn’t give you as much space as HootSuite. So if you’re, a small company you’re, just starting out buffer, will be great for you.
If you are planning on getting big or you already are medium-sized to large, then you probably want to go with HootSuite now. Another thing that HootSuite will do. It will allow you to tag your content, so if you want to search it and sort it you can do it and it also lets you view usage statistics where buffer does not so again, how involved do you want to get with your posting? You may be doing this not for a business, but just because you like to post and you’d like to engage with friends and community, or maybe you’re just posting, to encourage a group of people and it’s not that important buffer, probably would be the best platform for You so you just got to compare the pros and cons of each and figure out, which is best for you.
Now I’m going to go over verbally if you’re, looking HootSuite in these five areas was better with supporting more networks, we showed you that you can use more platforms with HootSuite. Hootsuite is also better for scheduling functionality, and it also has a larger storage platform. So, if you’re, really looking at running scheduling a lot of things on lots of different platforms, it sounds like HootSuite would be, for you.
Buffer is very easy to use. If you’re looking for simplicity and if you’d like to schedule on-the-go that one is better. So I kind of divided the five features that way you can go back and see which each of them does but figure it out. You know which platforms best for you, according to Ben in his article, both of them were good platforms, but you have to decide which one is best for you just give me if you don’t mind giving me a thumbs up.
If this was helpful, give me some feedback, if there’s more things like this, that you’re looking for I’d be more than happy to review it and make a article for you. Don’t forget to subscribe to my blog and check out my links below if you’re looking at affiliate marketing. That is what I do. I do have some links below. There is definitely an affiliate marketing bootcamp below that is free, that you can check it out and see.
If that’s for you, alright, thanks for reading today and again, I hope this was helpful. Give me a thumbs up if it was
Both of them are social media management tools, but there’s a lot of differences and in my email marketing group I had several people. Ask me: what is the difference? These are two of the more popular programs that people use and they just wanted to know.
What’s the difference is one better than the other. Is it just a price thing and it really is they’re both really different, and it really depends on what your needs are and I have started a playlist where I’m reviewing several different social media management tools and you can see the link below so you can go In there and look, but one of the things you need to do before you start, your research is decide.
What am I looking for? What is the platform that I’m using how many times a day and my posting and make sure you even need a platform? And then then, as you start looking, then you can see if it’s meeting your needs and one of the advantages of having a tool is that you can post all in one big chunk of time when you first start out with your new business you’re finding out That, oh, my gosh, there’s all these different tasks that I have to do, and we all do this in the beginning.
We try to do all the tasks ourself and we try to do all of the tasks as daily and what I recommend that you do is start chunking your activities. If you can’t hire somebody to help you if you’re not at that point yet then start chunking. Your activities, and what do I mean by that? What you need to do is decide I’m going to take all day one day and I’m going to post everything into a tool, a management tool where I can put all my posts in there, maybe for the whole month.
If it seems daunting, then only do a month, but you might even say you know what I’m going to do two months. It just depends on how quick you are, but you should be able to get 30 days worth of done in a day, but then they’re done for the whole month. Then you go. Do it again for another month and then in another month. Well then, you don’t have to keep on coming up with new content. At that point, you start recycling in so every 90 days, yep the same posts are going out because people don’t remember what they’re seeing they don’t see, every single post that you put out now.
What you can do to keep it fresh is maybe say: okay, I’m going to recycle everything from three months ago, but here and there I’m going to insert something new and current and that’s okay, but it’s not as time-consuming so that eight-hour job might turn into a Two hour job for you and that’s where you start saving time and that’s where you start building your business, but that’s called chunking your time so think about that for all of your tasks that you need to do for your business.
How much of it can I Chum? I know with articles. I remember when I did my first one. It took me all day long and then I got to the point where I could do two into two in a day and then three and then four and I know people that will sit down and do 20 30 articles in a day. I am not at that point, there’s no way, but they do there they’re so good at it. They know how to focus. They know exactly what they want to talk about, and they just knock them out, and then they might send them to somebody else to post them and everything for them or upload them.
But anyway, that just gives you an idea of what that chunking. Your time is and how that can be a time saver and help you be more organized, more productive, so let’s go ahead and do a quick review of what’s the difference between them. Hootsuite and again, I made a article on each of these to tell you these. You know exactly what they were, so there’s more details, go into the playlist and find them, but basically that ten dollars isn’t true anymore.
I forgot to cross it off, but anyway you. This is the best thing about HootSuite. You have an unlimited number of social profiles. You can put this on as many as you want and and there’s several different ones and you can have access for you and a team member, and this is for their pro account, they’re a bigger account. I think now it’s like twenty nine dollars a month when I just look the other day.
So there is analytic reporting, but with the reporting you do get a free one and then, after that you have to start paying for it. They do have monitoring, publishing tools and unlimited apps that go with it, so you can post on the go. Do it from your phone? It doesn’t have to be from your laptop, so that’s just a quick review of what that does. Alright, so sprout social. I consider it an all-in-one kind of like one-stop shop.
If that makes sense, HootSuite is publishing for you, but they’re not really getting into engage and analyzing things like that and helping you track. People that are following you and things like that. We’re sprout social does do that. They’re. The reporting tools are much more comprehensive and they’re they’re helping you become more engaging as well as just scheduling so that it goes. It goes deeper, but there aren’t as many profiles that it or platforms that it serves.
You can see here that they serve Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and Google, so it depends on what you’re looking for so here I have. What does social sprout social have that HootSuite does not sprout, has a cue button for bookmarking and sharing content kind of like buffer does, or you can literally just keep everything in a queue so that you can recycle it and move it around in things like that, Which I love that feature, because I want to recycle my stuff.
It has a CRM tool, I’m for keeping track of your people. What is that? It’s basically a tool where you have a person’s name, I’m just going to say it in layman’s terms. You have a person’s name and anything that you can keep track of them to help. You get to know that person better so think of all the old fashion days, when people would keep like a an index card and put the customer’s name and all the information to help them be able to serve that customer.
So that’s what CRM is and it keeps track of it kind of like an Excel type sheet. It has a very nice design, who’s sweet does not, and all of the analytical analytics are included. Now, I’m going to say free, but they’re included, you don’t have to pay extra to get extra reports. We’re HootSuite will offer you one report in that pro account and this one you get everything, because this account actually sprout social, the lowest account they have is $ 99, where HootSuite is 29, so it just really depends on what you’re.
Looking for now, the nice thing about HootSuite, if you’re massively producing content – and you really need to get it out there and save time – it’s called bulk scheduling and you can do up to 50 posts at a time just hit that button get them out. So if you’ve got a massive amount to do, this probably would be better. The pro account has an unlimited social profile and ass. It’s the pro account I believe it was $ 29.
99. There is an unlimited social profiles I’ll see. I repeated that because many many many of these social media accounts management tools do not have unlimited profiles a lot of times. They’ll say you can only put 10. Some of them are just 3 and the more you get the more you pay. So they right there at the bottom level, they let you have an unlimited amount, which is amazing visually and they were talking about how sprout social is prettier easier to use.
Here’s an example: now this is a I’m going to compare. It really depends on you, but they have like a single column view of all your posts. Ok, so you’ll see Twitter and then you can see all your Twitter posts, so you can’t really see all of them at once. You can just go into one account at a time where HootSuite. No, I like this feature, you can go in its multi column, but you can go in and see all of them at once.
So you see, there’s two different Twitter accounts, two different Facebook accounts and you can see all your posts. What am I posting today? So you can bring up the day and you can see visually globally everything that you’re posting and being a global person. I like that feature, because I want to make sure: okay, I’m really posting well today. Maybe when you were scheduling you might have missed a day or something so it’s kind of like a double check.
You can go back and pull it up in the morning. Okay, we’re good to go and then you move on and do something else, and that would take you all of maybe three minutes all right. So that’s in a nutshell, the difference. It really depends on what you’re looking for. I do have a link for each of them below and, like I said, if you want more details on each one, a more detailed review go go to my playlist, that’s below as well, and it just says HootSuite review and then there’s the social Pro review.
