Timesaving Tip for Social Media Posting… Automate it
This is what my Planoly interface looks like- the images I have uploaded, and the dates and times I have scheduled them to auto post.
Timesaving tip for your social account: Tired of thinking up and making social media posts on the fly? Pro tip - automate it! I use planning and scheduling tools (Planoly and Later) to batch write my posts for different platforms and schedule them at optimal times. This really helps me from going down the Instagram rabbit hole daily and looking at pretty pictures! I am able to write my content directyl in the app, and upload the images I want to use. Planoly doesn’t allow you to do Carousel posts, so I upload the images for those, write the content, and then have to activate them the day I want to post them, and it allows you to choose them images you want in your carousel. Not as convenient since I like to do carousels to show new branding designs, but it’s still faster and easier than typing it all into my phone- that is not fun. Another trick is to write content in your notes app, and then copy and paste it into your Instagram content. That allows you to do more formatting, like spacing between paragraphs, or adding emojis, without again having to type it directly into your phone.
For my e-retail business Bunkybee, I also schedule my Pinterest posts months ahead of time, to get the best visibility, and save time. I use an app called Tailwind for that. You can always keep it spontaneous and fresh too by using Stories to engage with your audience whenever the mood strikes you. Need some ideas on how to connect with your audience - I’m here to help!
