I love finding ways to work more efficiently. And when it’s a free tool that gives me time back in my day – count me in.
In this list, I’ve included some oldie but goodies if you’re just looking to get started with some social media time-savers. I’ve also included a few that were new to me but so, so cool that I’ve just started utilizing.
- Hootsuite. Even the free version allows you to manage 3 profiles, up to 30 posts and provides decent analytics.
- Buffer. Buffer works similarly to Hootsuite, but what sets it apart is that over time, it takes your data and suggests when to post based on your audience’s engagement history.
- WriteRack. Can’t limit your thoughts to 130 characters on Twitter? WriteRack will allow you to post up to 100 tweets with images at your own time interval.
- Social Bee. People don’t like to follow companies that overly self-promote or post the same type content over and over. With Social Bee, you can categorize you content and easily schedule a variety of messages.
- Typito. Create sharable videos by uploading any of your own images, adding text, and utilizing any of Typito’s free templates. Upload to social media in just one click. Your first four videos are free.
- ContentStudio. Helps you find relevant content to your industry for sharing on any of your social media platforms.
- Tagwin. Set up Instagram contests and let Tagwin automatically calculate the results. Your first contest is free.
- Lisa. Can’t decide which photo is best to post on Instagram? Upload 2-5 photos on Lisa and let it tell you which one is best. Lisa will even suggest relevant hashtags.
What are some of your social media time savers? Any new ones on this list you plan on giving a try?
