Postcron Review
March 29, 2017
I think we can all agree that time is
important. And in our business time is critical to get things done. We’re busy
people, so if you’re like me, you’d rather be contacting and talking to people
rather than spending all day long
posting at specific times on Facebook and Instagram.
So that’s why I’m sharing this tool
calle Postcron that makes my everyday business life much more simple. This service
is a great tool for those of us who like to work ahead, plan out our social
media content, and not worry about it several times a day.
So you may be asking…”What is Postcron?” Well, I asked
the same question when a fellow coach told me about the service. In a nutshell
– it’s a scheduling tool for Social Media. Easily link your Facebook, Google+
and Twitter profiles to your account and quickly schedule your posts to one or
all of your pages AT THE SAME TIME. Yes, one click will schedule your posts to
all three social media platforms!
So here are a few things about Postcron
that are important to know.
1. There is a free option…and if you’re at all like me you LOVE
FREE! These free accounts can have up to ten (10) pending posts at at time.
This is great, but if you have 3 different platforms, You can only post 3
different posts at a time. So this option is great if you have 1 platform. But
if you have more, it limits the total number of posts.
2. There are different levels of paid accounts with various
options. These paid levels have unlimited pending posts, the ability to add
team members (great for store owners or designers who have staff to help manage
social media) and increased numbers of allowed linked accounts. If you’re headed out of town, have a busy
week or just want to streamline your social media posting – this tool is quite
handy.
3. The program is VERY user-friendly. I have not had any
problems with posting. You can write posts, share photos, and share links. I’ve
downloaded the app on my iPhone and can also save posts and work on them from
my computer.
4. Another handy dandy option is that you can load photos onto
Facebook albums. The paid plan allows you to put watermarks on your photos. You
can also schedule a certain time, as well as delete the posts at anytime. If
needed, you also have the option to modify and view posts by specific social
media accounts.
5. For those a little more advanced, you can even import CSV
files of your posts all at one time. You can also set pre-defined publishing
times and your posts will auto-schedule to these set times.
There are a few things that I dislike
about Postcron (such as the limitation on image uploads per post and the
inability to see your newsfeeds to find additional content) but, the pros far
outweigh the cons for simplifying my routine. And, Postcron is frequently
updating their tools to make our lives even easier.
You might be wondering how you can come
up with content to schedule out. I’ll share one of my little secrets! When I
release a new collection, I know I want to share several posts reminding my
customers that it’s new and available. Using Postcron, I can create unique
posts about my new products and schedule it to hit over several days. This way,
I don’t have to remember to come back every few days and create posts, I can focus on other promotion, checking out
the layouts, and designing new products. I am also a big fan of the content
recommendations – a tool that allows me to not only share content, but also
find great articles and tips I may otherwise have missed.
I also love how easy it is to see what
I have scheduled and how easy it is to update or delete it. I often make
changes to my release schedule, or find something better to share in a time window-
Postcron makes it easy to reschedule or
remove posts. I can also see my past posts and reuse them if I choose to –
which is handy when I am lacking in content!
So to wrap up…The main features of Postcron are:
- Scheduling posts ahead
of time on all your social media accounts (Facebook, Twitter, Google+, LinkedIn
and Pinterest)
- Scheduling posts in
bulk to different social media accounts
- Adding watermarks to
your images automatically
- Searching for content
of interest that is useful to your business
- Inviting multiple
collaborators to manage social profiles securely
Save time! Manage all
your social networking accounts from one place!
Use it free, or choose
from three plans tailored to meet your needs!
