Why I've stopped using automated tools for my social media
Social media automation tools like Buffer and HootSuite are getting really popular. Today I say why I've stopped using them.
Using automated tools for social media CAN be good when used right.
Buffer / HootSuite / MeetEdgar
They’ll force you to make a schedule and think of stuff in advance to put on your social media feeds.
However, that’s where its usefulness stops.
It stops you from being present
It stops you from being current
It makes you think too far into the future rather than things that are happening right now in your life. You might miss tweeting about a key thing
It stops you from thinking about being off-the-cuff
Interesting Conversations episode 2 is out now!
