Question: how do you streamline posting pretty much the same content on Twitter, Instagram, Medium, your blog, etc?

What tools do you use and/or how do you do this efficiently?

I've tried tools such as Buffer and Combin scheduler but want to know if there are more efficient methods!

    Post scheduling is the most efficient way to streamline your social media visibility. Just adjust the creatives to fit each social media dimension's standards.

    I use Buffer for Facebook and LinkedIn. For Twitter, I use their own post-scheduling option. The problem is that some post schedulers don't integrate all the posting options (carousel, tags, Twitter threads, blog snippets...). So if you want to spice up your posts with polls or threads you have to post them organically.

    It doesn't matter what tool you use. Make sure you take time to think about your weekly content in advance and you'll have more time for replies and spontaneous posting.

    As long as you have a good posting strategy and you post consistently, you'll gain visibility and followers :)

      Thanks @Calista110! Appreciate your view on the topic. 😊
      You make a good point that some of these schedulers miss one or two features, always (carousel, Twitter threads, etc).
      ...I guess I was wishfully thinking that one tool could do it all. 😅
      What you say about consistency is definitely true, that's probably the #1 thing I need (tools are a secondary concern indeed). 🙂

    Hey @logicalicy if you’re using WordPress as your main content hub from which you want to share your content but also have the ability to turn them into potential leads etc (WordPress allows for some great flexibility in that regards), you might want to check out this plugin I’m building 👉 https://wordpress.org/plugins/evergreen-content-poster/

    Basically it allows you to create a library of unlimited social media posts (as I’m one of the lucky few official Buffer partner, the networks that Buffer supports are supported first now) that will be shared to social media whenever you want.

    When the library reaches its last post, it will start at the beginning again, so it keeps on sharing your best content in an easy way to your various followers.

    Content can be divided into categories with different posting schedules per category, you can choose to only add something to your Buffer queue when the queue is empty, and content can be tied to your WordPress content (so it automatically includes a link back, with or without UTM tags for tracking) or just individual oost that have nothing to do with the rest of your content in WordPress (for example when you want to keep on sharing your YouTube videos on Twitter, or when you want to create a library of inspirational quotes).

    The plug-in is still quite fresh so I’m eager to learn and improve from more use cases or any other feedback you might have to help make it better.

    Happy to jump on a call as well, to go over it with you and help you set it up, when onboarding is not clear or for any other reason.

    Let me know, here to help!

    Hey Mario, I'm creating a semi-automated content repurposing tool for this very reason...

    What content are you attempting to create and then re-create on other platforms?
