Look no further—Send Social Media’s robust Queues feature is your ticket to seamless content curation, campaign scheduling, and efficient result tracking. Join us as we delve into the wonders of Queues and unlock the key to amplifying your social media game.


🚀 Why Queues Are a Game-Changer: Unleashing Efficiency and Creativity!

  • Content Curation and Sharing: Position your brand or client as a thought leader by curating and sharing relevant, high-quality content. Queues are the ideal tool for distributing evergreen, cornerstone pieces that add value and address your target persona’s pain points.
  • Effortless Queue Management: Adding individual social media posts to Queues is a breeze. Whether directly from the Compose Box or through bulk import via CSV, Queues allow you to schedule messages to publish consistently throughout the week, eliminating the need to worry about optimal posting times.

🌐 Queues for Scheduling Social Media Posts: Pros and Cons Unveiled!

Pros:

  1. Time-Saving Efficiency: Set times once, and messages will be sent out at optimal times, saving time in the long run.
  2. Organic Post Appearance: Opt for less even posting times to create a more organic look and feel for your scheduled messages.
  3. Client Engagement Optimization: Tailor posting times based on client engagement patterns, ensuring maximum likes, shares, or comments.
  4. Campaign Tracking: All messages added to a Queue are tracked as a campaign, providing specific data on post-performance.
  5. Versatility for Multiple Clients: Utilize Queues and bulk importing via CSV to schedule posts for multiple clients in the same industry, utilizing different times and randomization options.

Cons:

  1. Not Ideal for Specific Timing: Queues may not be suitable for messages that need to be sent out at a specific time and date, especially with randomized posts.
  2. Continuous Content Addition: If using the repeat posts option, consistent content addition to the Queue is necessary to avoid repetition in a short timeframe.

🔧 Two Fun Exercises to Kickstart Your Queues Journey!

Ready to put Queues into action? Here are two engaging exercises to get you started:

Exercise #1 | Trending Hashtag Fun:

  • Create a new Queue with a single time slot, e.g., Thursday.
  • Choose a trending hashtag like #throwbackthursday.
  • Write five posts and add them to your Queue, scheduling one post for each of the next five Thursdays.

Exercise #2 | Diverse Post Showcase:

  • Create a new Queue for your blog or chosen link source.
  • Write 10 different social media posts for the same link.
  • Choose one-time slot for any two days of the week, e.g., 10:52 on Wednesday and 14:47 on Sunday.

📝 Tips for Smart Queues in Send Social Media:

  • Start Small, Build Slowly: Avoid overwhelming users by gradually increasing post frequency.

We are excited to announce the release of Smart Queues: A clever way to schedule content for publication to multiple social media channels with minimum effort and maximum effectiveness and engagement.
 “This has been one of our most requested features to date and we’re excited to make this technology available to our customers. After a period of intensive testing and tweaking we’ve produced a powerful addition to our dashboard to truly help users increase the effectiveness of their messages without compromising productivity.” 
While many other tools restrict the number of queues users can create, you have the ability to create as many queues as you wish with an unlimited number of  times and dates for delivery.
Smart Queue’s Optimal Publishing Technology distributes posts based on engagement probability, using Send Social Media’s intelligent ‘Best time to post’ metric. This algorithm takes into account actual days to determine the best time to post on specific weekdays based on engagement probability thereby allowing for improved accuracy.
You can collaborate with your team and share queues with clients and other team members. You can use Send Social Media’s Bulk Importer to import messages into specific queues using a simple CSV file. You are now also able to distribute RSS content via Smart Queues so that content flows from a queue at predefined or optimized times and dates.
Smart Queues are fully integrated into our extensive Reporting and Analytics dashboard enabling you to track and measure the success of a queue and run specific campaign reports. You are able to retrieve analytics on various metrics including the number of clicks, comments, likes, mentions, reach, opens, and more, helpful in determining  ROI and the success of a particular queue. If you’re looking for the simplest way to stay on top of your company’s social media efforts, be sure to take a look at the Send Social Media Dashboard 7-day trial!

We’ve been working to hard to improve our Social Media Monitoring features. Some of the improvements include the following:

1. The ability to edit sentiment and relevancy for a given mention
Send Social Media’s sentiment analyzer is great, but there are times when it gets it wrong. You now have the ability to edit the sentiment score for a given mention. We understand that some mentions may be irrelevant and we’ve introduced the ability to mark posts as irrelevant so that they do not appear in your reports and mention results.

2. The ability to integrate your Google Alerts feed
Creating Google Alerts for your business or keywords is a great way to keep updated whenever Google’s crawlers come across a mention of your brand. You now have the ability to add your Google Alerts feed into Send Social Media so that Send Social Media
is also notified whenever Google comes across a mention of your business. 

3. Tracking of new services including Google+, GetSatisfaction, Blekko and IceRocket
We have been extending our mention crawler to include mentions of your business from new sites such as Google+ and GetSatisfaction. If you have any suggestions for other sites you’d like to see crawled, please leave them in the comments below or send us an email.

4. Searchable results
We have added a search box so that you can now search your mentions streams.

Send Social Media does everything Hootsuite does, but significantly better in addition to other features Hootsuite simply doesn’t offer.

1. Schedule posts to over 30+ social networks – not just 5 Schedule and posts tweets, Foursquare shouts and venue tips, LinkedIn status updates, LinkedIn Group posts, personal messages, as well as WordPress (self-hosted), WordPress.com, Blogger, Posterous and Tumblr blogs, Pinterest pins, Instagram, Flickr albums, Email Newsletters and even SMS/text messages.

2. Better Analytics, analyze every post, click, share & comment while also checking your Klout score Track just about everything including clicks, referrers, shares, comments, views and more. Track every piece of content you distribute, making it easy to measure the success of your campaigns. You can even add your Google Analytics code.

f you’re a marketer or team member of a business that utilizes social media as a marketing channel, chances are one of your responsibilities is sharing how social is performing for the business with internal stakeholders. And if you run or are part of an agency that offers social media marketing services, your clients likely want to know the results they’re getting on a monthly basis.

One of the elements that make social media marketing so interesting and very effective when done well is it’s something that occurs across multiple platforms. While that’s great for driving marketing results, it’s not so great when the time comes to compile all relevant data into a report that people who aren’t involved in this practice can easily understand. Since reporting is something that has created headaches for people involved in all facets of social media marketing, the good news is there’s now a much easier way to handle this task.

Thanks to the powerful functionality and features we’ve built into Send Social Media, creating excellent social media reports is now a breeze. This is just as true for business owners focused on their operations as it is for marketers and agencies managing multiple clients. Let’s take a look at how Send Social Media can help streamline all of your reporting activities:

All the Data You Need at Your Fingertips

As mentioned above, one of the reasons social media reporting has always been viewed as a very time-consuming activity is it requires pulling data from multiple sources. With Send Social Media, you can say goodbye to doing this work manually. Since all of the profiles you’re managing are already connected to this software, we’re able to pull all the data into a central location.

While having all your data in a single dashboard is a big timesaver, it’s just the tip of the iceberg with what Send Social Media offers for reporting. Not only will you be able to build reports that look great based on the specific needs of your business or clients, but you’ll be able to use all of this centralized data to spot actionable insights.

For example, you can see exactly which posts are performing the best. You can then take this information and directly use it to guide future social media marketing efforts. Another use of this data that Send Social Media makes easy is identifying users who are the biggest brand advocates. Best of all, these different examples we’ve shared can easily be exported into a PDF and then shared with stakeholders or clients.
