That's where online tools come in handy! In this blog post, we will discuss five online tools that will help you automate your marketing business. These tools will help you save time and energy, so you can focus on other important tasks.
Asana
Asana is a project management tool that allows you to manage your team's tasks, track progress, and communicate with them easily. You can create different projects, assign due dates, and so much more, allowing you to streamline work. This is a great tool for keeping your marketing business organized and making sure you stay on top of your daily, weekly, or monthly assignments.
Canva
Canva is an online marketing tool that lets you create beautiful designs for social media posts, newsletters, flyers, and more. You don't need any graphic design skills to use Canva; they have a wide variety of templates ready-made so all you have to do is customize them with your own text or pictures! It's easy enough where anyone can learn how to use it in just minutes--even if you've never done anything like this before. In addition, they now allow you to convert sizing, so you can create one graphic for Instagram and then optimize the sizing for Pinterest and Facebook too!
Planoly
Planoly is an online social media planner that lets you plan and schedule your Instagram content, as well as track your analytics. You can upload photos from anywhere on the web or directly from your mobile phone, then arrange them into a grid before scheduling when each post will be published to Instagram. It's easy enough where anyone can learn how to use it in just minutes--even if you've never done anything like this before. Planoly also offers analytics, so you can gauge which posts / what type of content is performing best.
Flodesk
Flodesk is an email-building site that lets you create and send newsletters to your following or customers. It allows you to create templates for future use and schedule when they should go out each month. You can upload your own HTML files if you want more customization options. Flodesk also allows you to set up triggers like when someone fills out your opt-in form or purchases one of your products, which will trigger an email sequence tailored specifically to those customers' needs! This helps automate your business by sending emails at the right time so they don't have to be manually sent each individually (saving precious hours). With this software, there's no need for human intervention--everything happens automatically without any extra work required from anyone else involved in the process.
Tailwind
Tailwind is an online marketing tool that helps you schedule out your Pinterest for a month or more in advance. You can join communities within your niche, in which you can find trending pins and repin them to drive traffic back to your boards. You can also add in your own pins on Tailwind and choose which dates you'd like them to go out and what communities you think they fit in with best. This is an incredible way to get eyes organically on your content. Overall, it's a great tool for helping you strategize your Pinterest pins, increase monthly views, and grow your following.
Whether you’re just starting out in your marketing business or you’ve been at it for a while and are looking for ways to automate some of the more tedious or time-consuming tasks, we hope you find these online tools helpful.
