Social Media Managers for Busy Mom Entrepreneurs
Let's face it--mompreneurs are some of the busiest people out there. Here are a handful of my favorite social media managers for busy mom entrepreneurs. These tools will help you be a social media butterfly even while you're (gasp!) not sitting bug-eyed in front of the computer. 1. Twitterfeed makes it easy-peasy to send your blog posts directly to Twitter. Twitterfeed's servers check your blog's feed at the specified interval and posts any new items to Twitter. You just sit back and relax while Twitterfeed shares your blog posts with your followers on Twitter! 2. FriendFeed (Closed it's doors in 2015) 3. Social Oomph has quite an array of social media tools that are not just for Twitter anymore. Some of my favorite features are:
- Schedule tweets
- Track keywords
- Save and reuse drafts
- URL shortening
- View @ mentions and retweets
- Purge your DM inbox
- Purge your tweets
4. Facebook really makes it easy to organize your Facebook friends. Now you can group your friends into categories like "High School", "Colleagues", etc. 5. TweetChat helps put your blinders on to the Twitter-sphere while you monitor and chat about one topic. TweetChat is perfect for those times when you want to join in on the fun (#gno, #oneword, #americanidol) or the business building conversations. Each tweet you make automatically gets a hashtag (#) added for the room you are in - no need to worry about hashtag typos. The room auto-updates with new posts using the hashtag you are following - no need to reload. 6. TweetDeck is your personal browser for staying in touch with what’s happening now, connecting you with your contacts across Twitter, Facebook and more. TweetDeck shows you everything you want to see at once, so you can stay organized and up to date. TweetDeck gives you more flexibility by letting you view multiple timelines in one easy interface. Here are just a handful of cool things you can do with TweetDeck:
- Tweet directly from TweetDeck
- Stay up to date - view all new tweets in real-time
- Use columns to create your personal dashboard
- Create Groups to easily follow friends, colleagues or other interest groups
- Update Facebook and follow your Facebook friends
- Follow topics in real-time with saved searches
- View @replies and direct messages and manage your conversations
I hope these Social Media Managers help you continue building your social media brand, even in the midst of temper tantrums, playdates, diaper changes, tween angst and the sheer exhaustion & exhilaration of mom entrepreneurship.
