As someone who was getting tired of doing manual posts but still didn't want to hand over the reigns of my social media pages to others, I am so grateful that you made this video!!! Your information was clear and concise - and that made me trawl through your other videos as well. You have a new, very engaged follower! Thank you!
That's so wonderful to hear! I'm so thrilled you found this video helpful and you're enjoying my other videos as well. Thank you for your kind comment and for subscribing.
I've created a bot that is capable of posting on dozens of social websites, and soon it will be able to post on hundreds. I’m almost done with the mainstream ones. I’m short of some medium-traffic websites. If anyone can provide them, I’m very grateful. When my entire system is completed, I can give you a big discount.
I've only recently started watching your youtube after I signed up for pinterest and I love your content. I'm 50 years old and started up a website and want to learn as much as I can on how to really get my sales going. I seem to get the people there but have on had 2 sales. So really listening and auctioning the checklist to get the best out my little store. Thank you Angie you speak beautifully and not in your face like other tutorials. Big hugs xxx
Thank you so much for your kind comment, Catherine! I'm thrilled that you like my videos and find them helpful. Once you're ready for more guided support I'd love to have you join me in one of my courses. Pinterest Marketing 101 walks you through how to create a strategy for Pinterest that generates email subscribers and sales.
Love your content, but needs few improvements Like the sub logo is on ur cam feed, it's irritating to watch and also formals suits you. You will look more attractive on them Just a suggestion All the best!
@@AngieGensler and after the trial? And one more thing AG ... I know it doesn't pay you to answer me, but I have a curious question, that is typically never discussed or revealed ... In the beginning, when you were just getting started, what was it like for you? How slow or fast did you get business? Did you start part time as you had a job? Did you just wing it because you had a bank buffer to pay bills? Did you focus first on maybe 1 or 2 things only to start earning? I never hear anyone really connect in that regard, to any and all, and quite frankly, most ... 😊 ...
@@IMJusticeMarketingVideos both Hootsuite and buffer should still have a minimal free plan that doesn't expire after a trial. Regarding your questions...this video might help. I talk about my journey in detail: th-cam.com/video/rOr28ZbSaGc/w-d-xo.html I worked a full-time job my first 20 months of building my business and didn't start making money until 2 years in.
Hi Precious! I'm glad you liked the video. I apologize but this is 3 years old and I've since changed some of my strategies so I'm not completely sure what you're referring to. Can you be more specific or share the timestamp of when I mention it in the video?
Love it! Thanks so much. I've been looking for a easier way to publish content across multiple platforms faster and with more automation. Keep going, Angie!
The microphone I used for this particular video was a lapel mic, but I now use a Yeti microphone as it's much clearer. For the camera I use a logi webcam.
In a very automated world, even given Zapier, etc, I wanted to write to say thank you for valuable content I can use! I had heard of Zapier but not the other one and I'll use these to grow my audience. Thank you, I liked and subscribed!
I find facebook marketing difficult to work on. Could you please give me an advice for Octosuite. I heard from youtube that it can enhance FB groups auto posting. Thanks for your sharing!
Hi Chan, you're very welcome! Unfortunately, I haven't had any experience with Octosuite so I can't provide any advice. In addition to Zapier and IFTTT, I prefer and use Later, Tailwind, and SocialBee to schedule and manage my social media posts.
Ang, See if I got this right. Zaps/applets are posted to the respective media at time of original post. If I want to distribute chunks of my original videos to multiple medias and schedule 1 to 2 months in advance Then I need a HootSuite or the like?
Is it possible to post what I posted on facebook to the timeline of line? I checked automation tools such as ifttt and zapier, but it seems that I can not do it
I'm sorry, I'm not sure if that's possible. If you weren't able to find the ability to do it IFTTT or Zapier I have a feeling it's not possible. You could always try to build your own applet in IFTTT, but that takes a lot of technical ability.
As far as I'm aware there are no limits to the number of times a zap or applet can fire. There is a limit to the number of zaps you can create with a free account, but that's the only limit I'm aware of.
Hi Angie - this was extremely helpful. I think your point about focus is so important. I found you on FB too. I was curious about how Instagram can be used for a tech business since it seems for people who go places, travel or take lots of personal photos.
Hi Paul! I'm so glad you found this video helpful. If you're a B2B tech business I would recommend not worrying about Instagram at all and focus on LinkedIn. If you're B2C, then you can use Instagram, but your feed will look a little different from most influencers. That's perfectly fine. If you need ideas of what to post you may want to check out my content calendar. angiegensler.com/calendar
I've never tried Craigslist for this so I'm not sure if it will work. Go to IFTTT and Zapier and do a search to see if there are any zaps/applets that will work with Craigslist.
Hi Rudy! I'm so glad you found me as well. Depending on the various software and tools you use for your sales funnel, yes, there are some Zaps and Applets you can create to automate parts of the sales funnel. We use Zapier to add new customers of my Teachable courses to my email list inside of MailerLite.
Zapier can help you automate just about anything. I'm not sure about that specific automation, but if you go to Zapier you can search by the different integrations and see if it will work.
You're welcome! I'm so glad you like them. I use Feedly to find content to share on social media. I have another video that shows you how to use Feedly and Hootsuite to curate and schedule content: th-cam.com/video/Hb8f6SdNbpk/w-d-xo.html
Awesome, A unique and best tutorial for automation, But mam is zapier gives only 14 days trial in free plan and guide about ifttt.com that is it free or paid?? Regards
There are some apps you build in Zapier and IFTTT to automate posts, but it can get complicated. I recommend using a service like Buffer or Later to schedule auto posts.
Hi Toni! I don't have any updates regarding this specific video. Manually posting your content on FB and IG has and will always get you the best results, but as a busy business owner you need to balance the trade off between your time and the tiny benefit you get with the algorithm by not using posting tools.
Extremely helpful! Right on time! Just trying to figure out what app and Service to use to automate my social media! What do you think about Hootsuite?
Hi Dr. Aya! So glad the timing of this video was right. I love Hootsuite. I've used it for years and they have a free plan to get started which is always a plus!
At the time I was focused on progress over perfection. I created content without stressing about having the BEST resources and I improved over time. I hope the quality of the content outweighed the quality of the video image.
Were as your walk through is helpful. Your intro music is to loud and/or long. You can't be heard over the music and over all volume is to low. Finally you could cut off the first 4 minutes of this video. We get the reason why you are doing this. It's the reason we are here looking for a way to do it. Your explanation sounds more like bellyaching than, stating a problem and then offering a solution.
Social media media optimization software is great. It really helps. There's a new one out just now. Check the review here: th-cam.com/video/f56zBGV8JDQ/w-d-xo.html
You should fade the music out faster or raise your voice audio in the beginning. your voice is way too soft and disappears in the audio track. Then you take 5 minutes to get to the content described in the title of the video. That's 5 mins of self-promotion before you start with the content. I skipped forward, because after 2 mins, of listening to self-promotion, I just started skipping through and searching for the content. Right there you lost me as a potential subscriber. I will unfortunately not be back. Sorry.
I haven't heard of anyone getting shadow banned by using Zapier. From what I've heard from others - shadow bans tend to happen when you share spammy content or go crazy with spammy hashtags.
I don't mean to rain on this persons parade. But, first of all-Zapier is not free. And I don't mean their little free "trial". Zapier sounds like a good tool, if you have the money. But it's not cheap. So anything connected to that concept is erroneous-if you believe it will be "free".
Hi Jerry! Zapier is in fact free at the basic level - which is all you need for what I teach in this video. You can get 5 one-step zaps free with the basic plan.
Skip to about 4:16.

Hi Rasean! I've never used social rabbit so I'm not able to share an opinion on it. I've used and love HootSuite, Butter, SmarterQueue, and SocialBee.
