Four Ways I Manage Social Media with Hootsuite



Hootsuite.com is a cool, free online site that allows you to manage your social media. It works so well for me that I just had to share it with you.  Here are the FOUR ways I use Hootsuite: 

1. I use Hootsuite for managing my Facebook, Twitter, and Linkedin accounts in one spot.  You can also add FourSquare and MySpace.

2. I sign in to see what’s happening on my social media accounts and it all sits on my Hootsuite dashboard. How cool is that? From my dashboard, I  post, reply, retweet, and update to all of my accounts or to only one.  If I see a tweet I want to share on Facebook, or on LinkedIn, easy peasy!

3. I manage my clients’ social media from here too. For $5.99 a month I can add an unlimited number of accounts and another team member to assist in managing the accounts. I also get Google Analytics and can create reports.

4. I schedule posts for each of my accounts for the specific day and time I want the post to go live. This allows me to create most of my content once a week! Of course, I still want to pop in and comment and retweet throughout the day.
