Putting your trust as a marketer or brand in 3rd-party social media tools to manage all of your posts can be a bit scary. You might be wondering: - Are my posts getting optimal reach and engagement?
- Do social media platforms penalize 3rd-party tools?
- Are 3rd-party tools really worth the cost?
These are some of the most common questions our Customer Advocates receive on a daily basis. And up until this research, we haven’t had any concrete data to say “yes” or “no” to whether or not 3rd-party tools affect the reach and engagement of posts. We’re hoping to change that. For an entire month we tested more than 200 posts across 35 profiles to see exactly how 3rd-party social media tools stack up vs. native posting. Today we’re excited to share the experiment results! About the Show: The Science of Social Media is your weekly sandbox for social media stories, insights, experimentation, and inspiration. Every Monday (and sometimes more) we share the most cutting-edge social media marketing strategies from brands and influencers in every industry.
