Improve Your Social Media Efficiency with HootSuite
Schedule Social Media Updates
One of Hootsuite’s most powerful features is its ability to schedule outgoing messages. Their scheduling feature allows users to prepare messages in advance and send them out at specific times. By signing up for Hootsuite Pro, users gain access to the bulk scheduler which allows 50 tweets to be scheduled at one time using a CSV file. This allows you to take full control of the efficiency and effectiveness of your social media marketing.
Formatting your CSV file can be challenging at first. You need to have it formatted exactly the way Hootsuite specifies. I spent a few hours getting this set up properly with Microsoft Excel, but once you get it right you will have armed yourself with a valuable marketing tool.
Hootsuite Pro also offers Google Analytics integration which is perfect for tracking your social media to web conversions.
