Recently, my role at my job has changed.  I was asked to take over some of the social media accounts for 3 different charities. It’s a task I could handle, but because I don’t work weekends, I need a solution to automate as much of the social media marketing as I could. My first focus is Instagram because each charity has great images.  I also have a word document containing hashtag and topic ideas.  I needed an Instagram Marketing Automation tool ASAP! SO after taking a day or two to create a game plan, I had to decide which tool I could use to help me manage this content and schedule and automate posts. Today I’m going to share 2 tools I found that could be used to automate your Instagram posts.

Tailwind

The first tool is Tailwind. I use Tailwind to create posts for each Instagram account ( 2 different accounts) as well as 3 Pinterest accounts.

 

I use the publisher to upload multiple images. I also use the chrome extension when I need to bulk upload blog posts from each site. It saves me time! I no longer have to download the image from each post and log in. It also has suggested time slots and a super cool calendar view.

Planoly

The second tool is Planoly.

I’m very visual, so I love that Planoly has a calendar view and that I can see my previous posts and stats and easily reschedule them or quickly view my plan for the week or month.

 

 

I hope that you get a chance to utilize one of these tools for your business.  The important thing to remember is that none of these tools can do the planning for you. It’s on you to make sure that you have great content and a game plan.
