When you start a business it might feel like you are cheating if you ever utter the word ‘outsourcing’, but the truth is, it’s one of the smartest moves you can make for yourself and your business. The load of running a business, chasing clients, scurrying around trying to get paid, having some semblance of a social life, maintaining your home and finding time to sleep is no easy feat. Asking for help is one thing, smart hiring is another completely.
When you want the best website, you’re probably going to check out reasonably priced freelancers, when you need some design work? You’re going to try yourself, then approach a graphic designer. When you need some help getting your life and social media in order? You’re going to want a virtual assistant. A virtual assistant is an organisational wizard, who can book your business travel, while also arranging months of scintillating content on your social channels. While millions of people use it to chat with friends and family, you should be building social media into your long-term strategy.

Here are a couple of great options when it comes to scheduling all that great content. You might be tempted to schedule via each platform individually. However, you’d be better off checking out your options.
Buffer - has a very reasonable free version, you can schedule 3 platforms and 10 posts. But most small businesses can utilise Pro incredibly well, for $15 a month. Pro allows you to curate content from your favourite sites too.
Hootsuite - used by over 16 million people, Hootsuite is one of the original places. However, its month pricing is more expensive - that said, it has unique integration possibilities.
MissingLettr - Great for long-term drip feed campaigns. Worked best with evergreen content. So, you’d really be looking to use this for your articles, offering that titillating content.
Planoly - For Instagram only, with a lot of support articles Planonly is beautiful to use and auto posts to Instagram. Relatively cheaply you can have hundreds of posts with your content on throughout the year for $27 a month.
Using a single platform will streamline your social media, and take much less time to prep campaigns.
