SMhack social media management system wants to make your social media marketing easier. I was thrilled to get an invite to test out their system. As many of you know I have been using the Buffer for years and loved the ease of their social media sharing platform.
SMhack has been around for almost 2 years now. Founded by Pravin Kumar out of San Jose,
Ca. He was a product manager at Zoho Corporation and he created this tool to make the life of a social media manager job easier. You know how complicated it can get managing your own social media, right? It gets more complicated when you add clients into the mix too! You can avoid social media burnout with this tool.Many of the other social network management systems like Hootsuite were not comfortable for me. Their streams were not easy or intuitive to manage.
SMhack is easy to use and you will feel comfortable too around their dashboard. That is important if you are to use this social media management platform.
This SAAS (software as a service) is available for agencies as well. You can use it as an individual, with a team for your small business or an agency with multi clients.
Social Shares Made Simple
They offer the big 4 social networks: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and LinkedIn with their integration. Just log in and add each of your social media accounts. If you have access to your clients you can do the same for their social networks.Once you have used their interface to schedule your shares it will tell you the best time in the future to share based on the past shares.
How SMhack Offers More For You
Integration
Not only does SMhack made social sharing simple but they make the whole process easier. SMhack social media management made simple for you offers more with integration.
SMhack is far more than just doing sharing shares on a calendar or via an app. It's about working with others in your company as a team with Slack Integration. You can check your messages and such in both platforms. Or just stay in one keeping it simple! Do you love using Bit.ly to shorten your tweets? Don't worry, SMhack offers Bit.ly integration too! Now your Twitter shares via SMhack will show up as Bit.lySMhack Competitive Analysis
You can put in some of your competitors to see how you compare with them on each social network. I really love the Facebook page one as you can enter many not just 5 like or competitor pages on your Facebook page platform.
If you see your competitors are doing much better with their Facebook page than yours you can check out their timing and amount of posts. Read and see what type of posts they are using. They may be using more video than you or more images. Maybe they craft better words.
Twitter Comparison too! You can also now check your Twitter analytics against other Twitter users as well. (They do limit the amount of accounts to 3 on the Twitter competitors.)
