Last year, the REVStaffing virtual assistant team began utilizing Hootsuite, the first social media tool to offer message scheduling. They've got a nifty collection of tools to streamline the way we schedule updates, select profiles, and broadcast message to your audience.

This is the time of year when our clients are planning – and beginning to implement campaigns. But we all know that things can get complicated when you want to do multiple updates with specific times, dates and messages. Hootsuite offers convenience to social media scheduling with an editorial calendar view allowing everyone – clients AND REVStaffing – to organize updates in advance. Different versions of the application allow you to choose between daily, weekly or monthly schedules. Plus, you can edit schedules by dragging and dropping messages into set time slots; when agendas change, you can easily move your messages to different times.

Hootsuite also offers limited accounts, which is a must-have for REVStaffing's client teams. Security is critical to prevent abuse and gaffes which can easily damage brand sentiment in a heartbeat. It enables designated team members, including contractors like REVStaffing, to share search streams and compose draft messages, but not to publish without your permission. Instead, messages are held in the scheduling calendar until they're approved by an authorized teammate. That's good for a deep sigh of relief!

Hootsuite is one of MANY tools with which REVStaffing can help your business be more productive. Send us an email or give us a call for a free needs analysis. Let's work together!

I signed up but keep forgetting to use it

I signed up but did not like the interface as to compared to the basic twitter interface. The search does not work as well and also one can not check followers. Pre programing tweets takes the moment away from twitter. I personally dislike canned tweets. So many people tweet 4 or 5 tweets at once. As if no one will notice.

Must re post logged back into hootsuite today and really had fun using it. So maybe I just needed some time away and need a lesson on how to use it effectively. The search still sucks.
