The Fast Track to Skyrocketing Your Social Media Presence

Melissa HadleyView profile
Hybrid Cloud Integration and App Modernization Specialist in Sales at IBM (10,001+ employees employees)

Pros

  • Recommended times during the week to post content on LinkedIn in order to get the best engagement.
  • Flexible scheduling tool that plugs in with both LinkedIn and Twitter.
  • Super easy interface that any level of LinkedIn user can use.
  • Filtering feature so you are only shown articles that fall under categories you want!

Cons

  • If I schedule an article to be posted on LinkedIn and want to go back to edit it to have it posted on Twitter as well at the same scheduled time, this is hard and shouldn't be
  • For filtering content so the user just sees articles they are interested in, some of the filters are too broad. I work in Cloud. Cloud happens to also cover things like AI and Data, which aren't in my specialty. I wish my articles and content were just cloud software.
  • The pane where the user can see all scheduled posts could have a different view. They are shown in a list and aren't easy to drag/drop and change. This would be super useful on the desktop browser version.

Return on Investment

  • Increased opportunity identification in sales by piquing the interest of prospects when I post engaging content.
  • Increased efficiency and productivity in improving social media presence for the business.
  • Strengthened leads by creating a reason to connect.
