When To Use Social Media Automation
When To Use Social Media Automation
Remember – once you have set up social media automation, you can’t just
forget about it. To have a successful account be that personal or business, you
need to monitor the progress of your social media account. You have to keep
connected and engaged with your audience from the beginning to the end.
From your first post to your last.
You can use automation tools to decrease the amount of time you spend
daily on social media. It can reduce work but doesn’t mean you can stop
working altogether. You still need to put effort in. The result of social
media automation should be that you can use your time more wisely;
making the time you spend on social media websites as productive as
possible.
One way of working the social media automation system and keeping a
‘human’ account, is automating posts that are not that important.
Another good use of automation is to post on your sites every time a blog
post has been uploaded on sites like blogger using the RSS. This will help
increase your viewer count, just make sure to keep in touch with your
audience and to not only post links to your blog because that’s going to be
boring and very spammy.
So why use automated posts?
But there are times when definitely not to use automated posts. The most
important time to be personal is in dealing with customer relations. If you
are a business, customer relations can be the difference between keeping
and losing a customer. An impersonal automated post is going to put
anyone off contacting you and they may just move to a company with
better service. People like to be talked by other humans not by an
automated robot.
