Social Media Scheduling Using Hootsuite and Sprout Social

To schedule your social media interactions with your readers or not.

That is not necessarily the question (anymore).

If you have blogged for any amount of time, you have realized that there are many moving parts to the term blogging. Promotion should account for 80% of your efforts. That’s right! In a perfect world, you spend 20% of your time creating blog posts and 80% of your time promoting the posts you have created. In order for you to accomplish this, you almost have to schedule some of your social media posts.

With the amount of social platforms increasing by what seems like the month, you have to make the platforms work for you instead of the other way around. Join us tonight as we take a look at two of the most popular scheduling tools used today. Hootsuite and Sprout Social.
