We use a tool that is included in the list of the most powerful social media management platforms that comes with solutions for planning, engagement, analytics, and more.

It helps us promote various aspects of our own business through different social media accounts as well as clients that are affiliated with us.

The platform lets us manage all our social media accounts, around 15, from one unified dashboard, which helps us maintain efficiency.

You get quick information about how each of our accounts is doing directly from the home page, which then allows us to start scheduling our posts and see more in-depth reports about engagement rates.

It also facilitates the interaction between us and our client’s audience. The platform’s dashboard displays all our comments, and you can respond right away without having to browse around various accounts.

The analytics feature gives us insightful reports on how your social media posts are doing, and the amount of reach and visibility you gain from each of them.

With a specialty in content curation, I often use a social media management tool for my managing my clients’ social accounts. While it originally started off as a social media posting tool for Instagram, over time, it steadily evolved into a visual content calendar and scheduler that now allows me to visually plan my content calendar, store evergreen content in the asset library, and frequently schedule it in a stipulated time.

But what I especially enjoy most about the tool is its useful Preview feature that allows me to see what the Instagram profile grid will look like in advance with my scheduled posts, thereby allowing me to maintain grid aesthetics, color schemes, and more. Plus, since it also allows me to add labels, notes, and stars to every media, this ensures quick filtering for all my content.

As a digital agency, we use a platform thats very easy to use in terms of setting up long-term scheduling. It also has a very good multi-account “priority inbox,” which makes it very easy to monitor inbound messages across all client accounts very quickly each morning.

When we used another social media tool in the past, the same/similar tasks took so much longer to implement and were less effective. Overall we have seen a massive time-saving in using this particular platform. This tool really has the best ‘set and forget function’ out of all the apps we’ve tried.

We like a social media tool for managing social media. With it you can create, edit, and schedule posts to any social media platform. The tool also makes it easy to clone a post, so you can use the same post in multiple channels.

It is already integrated into our lead generation and email campaigns, which makes creating analytics reports super easy. The platform is fairly intuitive and easy to get started with. Using this social media tool saves us time and effort.

The query you have raised is very relevant as social media is thriving & celebrating its heyday in the recent era. It was also a topic of discussion in our recent team huddle as businesses are inclining toward utilizing the social media spectrum to propel their reach and brand visibility. Bringing my decades-long experience as a Growth Manager in the industry, I have witnessed that agencies are leveraging social media management tools for clients in recent years.

And yes, in my work aspects, I also prefer to use SMM tools for agency work, and it helps to derive certain benefits that are time-saving and cost-effective.

Social media tools can solve a myriad of pain points for agencies. Using a social media management tool offers us greater control over the client’s
social media accounts, scheduling posts, targeting messages, and measuring results. It can help to ensure that the social media content is relevant, engaging, and consistent across all channels. You can measure the impact of your posts and optimize them for better results. This can lead to increased ROI in website traffic, conversion rates, and more.

Besides, it further boosts your efficiency as the tools allow you to schedule posts quickly and easily. It reduces the time you spend on social media and helps you focus on more critical tasks. Furthermore, social media management tools bring increased transparency. Leveraging the tools, it is easy to see which posts are performing well and which ones need improvement. It increases transparency between you and your clients, ensuring that everyone is aware of the brand’s social media presence.

You can also ensure that your clients’ social media accounts are consistent with the brand’s image and message. This helps to boost brand awareness and increase sales. By providing a platform for communication and feedback in real-time, social media management tools can help to build customers.

Rolling to your last query, I would like to add that I use one social media management tool as the tool offers bulk management features that allow users to manage multiple client accounts from a unified interface. It also provides preset scheduling features that help you automate your social media activities so that you can focus on your business goals.

As a LinkedIn marketing agency, we use a platform to manage the approval stages of the content development process. It triggers automated Slack channel messages to let each team member knows when it’s their time to review the content and move it to the next stage in the process.

We also have a client-facing platform where the client leaves feedback and request changes, which also notifies our team and reduces turnaround times on revisions.
