Saves me hours per week

If you have any kind of online business…

You will know that to be successful with Linkedin or any other platform, you will need to have a comprehensive process to Build Traffic With Content and then have compelling offers to create customers.

The main concern businesses share with me is – “How do I find The Time?” – and this post shares the answer I now give all of them – by using one of my new favourite tools – “Co-Schedule”

I very rarely write reviews and almost never write straight up recommendations (on ANY of my Blogs) , so excuse me if this piece is a little on the clunky side….this is a pretty new thing for me.

However, the fact is that, in the 5 weeks or so that I have been using Co-Schedule I have seen such an increase in my engagement (almost 300%) that I would feel bad if I kept this to myself.

Frankly, this WordPress plug in makes everything easier. Period.

I spend less effort, my content is better and my social media scheduling is happening in approximately one third the time than it was before – with huge increases of visits to my website (which are all trackable!)

Now…

I have spent a considerable amount of the last ten years teaching small businesses how to get the best out of their Social Media investment of time and money…and Co-Schedule is changing the recommendation I make about the best tools to use.

I have previously been using an “Owl Based” application to co-ordinate the social media to support the content I write, but I found that making a good job of it with variations in the type of post and the content of post across a variety of platforms was becoming ever more time consuming and the construction of their interface meant that I would occasionally make scheduling mistakes and send things out at the wrong time.

How To Build Traffic With Content

The Co-Schedule Drag and Drop calendar makes programming my content content and supporting social marketing simple and easy to see EXACTLY what is going out when and on which platform.CoSchedule-Calendar

Simple. Easy. And most important for a creative person like myself …VISUAL, being able to see what you are doing makes a lot of difference.

The Benefits…

One of the best things about Co-Schedule that make me and my small team MUCH more productive is the clever integration of almost all of the tools and applications I was already using, so I get more out of the time I work with less effort.

Working with my team of freelance writers, designers and other content creators has always been a challenge.

Manage Workflow

Making sure everyone knows what they are producing when the deadline is, has always been a ball ache to wrangle…it is now MUCH simpler to manage our workflow with us all working into the Co-Schedule calendar.

There I can set publishing dates, manage everyones tasks, while I am creating content and managing other aspects of my business all from inside WordPress.

Works with My Other Tools

I do a lot of writing, creating new information products, new content for marketing, copy and all of the other things that help me keep my business growing quickly.

As I am sure you do, I already use a variety of other tools to capture ideas, get them straight and looking nice before I bring them to WordPress to publish.

Working with Co-Schedule means that I can work across all of my existing tools and it will integrate everything for me, convert Google Docs and Evernote to WordPress formatting …? DONE

Integrate with the apps I use including Google Analytics, Bit.ly and Chrome? DONE

Thank you for reading.

I hope that you watch the video (Co-Schedule really is that good) and get your 2016 off to an amazing start by hugely increasing your traffic and engagement…

To Your Continued Success…
