What are social media management tools?
Social media management tools are online platforms that make managing your social profiles much easier and your social media teams more productive. They can range from really simple ones to comprehensive all-in-one suites of tools for social media management that may include:
- Scheduling and auto-publishing content across social media profiles
- Monitoring and managing comments and messages
- Automating some of the comment moderation, for example, to automatically remove spam from your posts
- Analytics tools to monitor your social media content performance and compare it with your competitors
- Facilitating and automating the reporting process to inform your social media strategy (and impress your boss or client)
- Team collaboration tools that will help organize the work of your social media marketing and customer service teams and save time (usually, a lot of it)
The simple tools will definitely take some work off your shoulders if you’re a one-person social media team or a small business owner doing all social media by yourself. But if you’re an agency working for many clients or an in-house customer support team working with many departments within your company, you most likely can’t do without some sort of social media management software.
And especially the kind that offers team collaboration tools to help you organize your workflows and improve both internal and external communications.
And if you’re wondering what are the best social media management tools out there, here are a few examples to check out, focusing specifically on what they have to offer for social media marketing and customer service teams.
