Resource Development & Marketing Manager at Columbus Alliance for Battered Women D.B.A. Hope Harbour (11-50 employees employees)

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

In our small non-profit business, I wear a lot of hats: marketing, resource development, fundraising, social media, website content, etc. That said, when I have to post one thread of material across multiple social media platforms, it only makes sense to do this via Loomly. It's a wonderful service that is easy to use.

Pros

Social Media
Hashtag
Collaborations with multiple software programs

Cons

Credit $$ qualifications via META

Return on Investment

One subscription meets all my complex needs

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I absolutely love Loomly. I've found it helpful for productivity, saving valuable meeting time and allowing myself to schedule content quickly and effectively. I love their calendar view as well. Great to see the pipeline of what you are working on and how content is performing on different channels. I would 100% recommend it to anyone!

Pros

AI transcription of videos
Naming title of topic / outlining what the video is about
Saving and exporting video to send to co workers
Integrates well with other apps (teams, slack, etc)

Cons

Processing time - sometimes my videos take a bit to load
Maybe more organized libraries that can be put into sub folders (ie. training, support, etc)

Return on Investment

Increased productivity and boosted sales
Less time spent training, more time spent designing
ROI has been seen in time saved, productivity increased, and saving library for future training for new hires

Social Media Manager in Marketing at 628 Digital Design (1-10 employees employees)

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Loomly to schedule social media content in 45-day batches across several platforms. I use the analytics function to pull data to create monthly KPI reports for clients. Clients also have access to the platform to communicate with me in real time about edits that need to be made.

Pros

Social media analytics
Scheduling content
Providing blogs with valuable information for social media managers

Cons

Ability to change the background
Takes a while to create a drafted post for scheduling
More post ideas around holidays and observances

Return on Investment

Quicker scheduling times for clients.
Easy to pull social media analytics from one place instead of different platforms.
Can communicate with clients and colleagues in real time for editing purposes.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Loomly to manage and post on a variety of clients' LinkedIn pages. I manage about 10 different accounts on it, scheduling out about 2 posts weekly for each. Loomly addresses a few key issues I have with typical social management: - A streamlined approval process. Loomly allows you to send posts through a few tiers of review before sending something out. - I share a lot of links, and I like that Loomly let's you shorten, and even remove, the link. It will instead hyperlink whatever photo you use, which is much cleaner looking on a feed. - Love the calendar view and ability to view exactly what's scheduled over the course of the month. Super useful in holding myself accountable!

Pros

Reviewing and approvals between teammates
Removing links and instead hyperlinking featured images when sharing a webpage
Viewing the month of posts in Calendar view

Cons

There are issues with tagging people or companies on LinkedIn within the platform sometimes.
Sometimes photos will upload blurry.
Not a lot of analytics tools like competitors.

Return on Investment

Unable to track analytics, outside of comments/likes
