Hi Marie, I love hootsuite. They have a free version and a paid version. For one account you really only need the free version. I use the paid version because I do a lot of auto posting and scheduled tweets. I love it most for Twitter. I am teaching a free webinar next week Wed. night on how I speed hack Hoostsuite. As you know, I am all about how to do tasks faster! 

Hi Marie, I use HootSuite.  My favorite feature is Bulk Message Upload.  It allows me to schedule in advance & post to multiple social media accounts. I schedule posts to Facebook, Twitter & LinkedIn 30 days in advance.  This saves a lot of time & we both know time is money!  Check out this video on Bulk Message Upload:

I've been using it for years and never read up on how to use it. It's really easy to figure out just by clicking around the interface. I think they send you a welcome message with tips on how to use it. 

Sign up for the FREE version and knock yourself out.

Be aware, the FREE version is limited to only 3 SM destinations/profiles.

That is sufficient to test if it can work for you.

Be aware, a version exists that will facilitate you being a SM manager for others if that is how you want to spend time or earn $$$.

Youtube always has plenty of resources for most projects.

Marie - I have not tried Hootsuite, although I have heard several people ask questions about it recently. I need to find out more about it myself.

I have not looked into this topic myself.  However, presumably Yahoo! has indexed some great resources.

Marie Haydock I have not signed up for Hootsuite yet. Good question!

It integrates several social media sites.  I have been talking to other ARs and actual teach social media at my brokerage. 

One has to devote much of her precious time to get someone's attention from social sites.

I have not used Hootsuite. Your decisions should make a good blog topic.
