5 Top Time Saving Tips for Social Media

Social media is an integral part of any modern day business strategy, but how many businesses really have the time or resources to make it work? Countless companies have proved it can yield higher ROI and greatly increase brand awareness. So how can you cut the time you spend managing your social media without losing all those benefits? Here are some top time saving tips for running successful social media campaigns.

Scheduled Posting – Link your social media platforms together and set upscheduled posts for Facebook and Twitter. You can save time by distributing your posts to all channels automatically ahead of time, without having to repost the same items on every platform.

Social Analysis – If you have to spend time on social media, spend it on finding out what your fans really want to talk about with Facebook Insights, so that when it comes to posting, however infrequent, your social media conversations are never a waste of time.

Social Media Calendar – Plan your social media campaign ahead of time and map out your goals for the coming months. Tie it in with your ongoing promotional campaigns and you will never be searching for things to post about.

Twitter Lists – Keep track of the conversations you really care about. Create Twitter lists of those that will aid your business development and become a more efficient Tweeter.

Google Alerts – Google Alerts and iGoogle homepages are ideal for bringing you the latest industry information without you having to search for it. Simply set up alerts or personalised pages for daily feeds on what matters to your customer base.
