How I use autoscheduling apps to work my business for me

Ever heard of buffer? Hootsuite?

If you haven't, or are not currently using them, I will post the links at the end of this post so you can download them.

These apps are changing the way we work our businesses. Seriously!!! Many of us work full time right now and can not be on our social media accounts all day long! Completely understandable, even as a previous stay at home mom, its impossible to be on social media all day every day! So some super smart person created these apps for us to use!
I used to have buffer then forgot my log in information when my so loving now one year old deleted the app.... So now I have hootsuite! I can copy and paste posts, photos, links, and hash tags to the app on my smart phone (seriously thanks facebook for adding the copy feature!!!) then have the option to instantly post across all of my social media accounts or schedule the post. I love the freedom of this app!

OK so its pretty simple, schedule as many posts that you want, to post WHEN you want or you can choose auto schedule (my favorite feature) then it does all of the hard work for you. I mean its like a person social media assistant! Who wouldn't LOVE that????

You can have 3 social media accounts on the free version of hootsuite! I chose my personal fb page, my business page on facebook (the one you like) and instagram. I've also had my twitter linked to it but since I use instagram more and have no clue what im doing on twitter, I switched!

I suggest sitting for an hour or so, copying and pasting any testimonies you see, any really awesome posts you see, motivational photos, the link to your website, a daily family post, etc on your account so you can be set for a week. I believe that life can and will get in the at some point this year and as long as you schedule posts your business will remain active, meaning your friends/family/potenitals will see your posts and think that you are working your business non stop.

Here are the links to sign up www.buffer.com and www.hootsuite.com also they are smart phone apps which is what i use the most!

Hope this helps your business so you can be the multitasking amazing person you are!
