SocialBee / Sendible

[tony84]

I just wanted to see if anyone used either of these systems for social media posts?

I have been looking at something and most of them are £100 a month give or take but these 2 seem to have licenses for small companies like mine at closer to £20 a month.

What are you hoping to achieve with these posts? If the postings earn you wodges of money then it’s a decent investment.

Before that, why do you think you need either of them?

I am looking at putting together a bit of a "campaign" with social media. I am up for an award later in the month, I am also working on a new project which is something unique in our industry and I think it would be useful to get someone in to see if they can push those things to generate a few extra enquiries.

But with everyone feeling the squeeze that is going to have an effect on our income and so if there is software out there which will do the same as the more expensive systems (ie make it easier to manage from one place) it would be nice to pay less. I dont think I need all the bells and whistles, as a small business with a couple of people I dont think I need anything spectacular... But maybe I am wrong?

What do you mean by manage?

Auto/timed posting?

 

[tony84]

If I were to make a post, it can be done on the likes of facebook/twitter/linkedin/google (if they still do social media) all at the same time.

I suppose being able to diarise it would be helpful but not necessary. Happy to put it in my diary for when the time comes.

Have you tried Social Champ? I think it has unlimited posts to 3 x accounts for free or cheap?

 

[tony84]

I hadnt. I will take a look thanks.

Is it any good?

If you have a WP or Joomla website (probably others as well) you can manage from there with a plugin.

Thanks.

I would prefer to keep the 2 separate. But handy to know in case things change.

Wouldn't additional, relevant content help your SEO!

 

[tony84]

Always. But we try to do one post a week.

We actually use Sendible and have done for maybe 2 years now.
Its very good, and as we have a lot of clients, it's really easy to manage their client accounts with, including no password sharing (hate needing passwords) and especially with the 'repeat' function.
Ive not used the other one, bt very happy with Sendible
