Which Scheduling Platform Should I Be Using?
We’ve been writing silly little captions under silly little squares for over a decade. Over the years, we’ve used a variety of social scheduling platforms. Each one has its pros and cons, and at the end of the day we don’t feel that this is a mission-critical procurement decision.
Ultimately, what matters most is that a brand has some sort of scheduling platform set up. As long as the social media manager can schedule posts, and the partner can read & approve the copy, all is well.

While all of these platforms offer their own analytics capabilities. We find that integrating social analytics directly into a single source of truth master dashboard is the best way to approaching this data. In order to do this, our data team pulls feeds directly from the platform and customizes the visualization to meet the specific key performance indicators of the partner.
