Every month I have subscribers asking me for suggestions of what software I would recommend for automatically posting social media messages.
I've been testing out some of the available services and so far My Top Choice is Meet Edgar.
This social media scheduling program handles posts to:
• Facebook Pages
• Facebook Groups
• Instagram Feed
• Instagram Stories
• Twitter
• Pinterest
• LinkedIn
• LinkedIn Company Pages
Any of these are my suggested platforms for book marketing, and setting up semi-auto feeds on even ONE of these platforms will save you a HUGE amount of time.
When I say "semi-automatic" it is because none of the scheduling programs are totally automatic ... you have to initially enter and schedule posts, which means spending some time either weekly or monthly adding new posts and programming them into the system.
However, when you use MeetEdgar, you will spend one or two hours a MONTH adding content instead of 30 - 60 minutes a day (15 - 30 hours a month) leaving you with more time to write!
What I like about MeetEdgar is that is it so so EASY to set up and use.
At its simplest, this is HOW Edgar works to save you time >>> Once you start entering posts, Edgar builds a bottomless library of evergreen updates. When he runs out of new updates, he’ll re-share older ones, so your social is always on – even when you’re focused on other things.
There is a 7 day free trial so you can give it a bit of a test run ... AND there is a 30-day money back guarantee.
Personally I don't think 7 days is nearly enough time to test programs like this, so my suggestion is to try it for six days. If you don't like it cancel.
If things are looking OK ... purchase ONE month of the monthly option (make sure you have this turned on).
Mark your calendar for 4-5 days before the "re-billing" date. Now you've had 30 days of testing. If you don't like it, cancel before Edgar bills again. IF you do like it consider going to a full year subscription and saving a nice chunk of money.
If you want to save time maintaining all your social media accounts, you should definitely be testing MeetEdgar!
I'm always curious to know what my subscribers think ... so if you are using or have tested Edgar, send me a note!
