4 social media tools to dominate your online strategy

Are they always the best choice, though?

Though social media suites do a lot of things and do them all well, sometimes you need a more specialized tool. Every social tool has one thing it does best.

All-in-one suites aren’t for everyone. Some of us would rather use the best tool for each task, even if that means logging into more platforms, taking extra minutes.

It’s all a matter of preference.

For multifaceted marketing teams, in which a different team member performs each task, the convenience of a social media suite is less important. You can ensure that each team member has the best tool for what he or she does.

Let’s review four social-media marketing tactics you probably do, and the tools you need to rock at them:

1. Plan your social media content calendar

I love a good plan, and hate going without one. It gives me hives. For your company’s content, you should love a good plan, too.

That’s just a start. You still need a roadmap.

If you want to see a clean summary of your brand’s social media, you must have an editorial calendar.
