Consistent content is key, along with repurposing and leverage your podcast content (yup as a guest or host). 

And what comes with creating content? Scheduling content. 

I’ve used a LOT of different social media schedulers and even posted natively on the platforms. With so many options it can be super confusing to know which scheduler is the BEST one to use or even what features are available, what they are and why they are important. 

This episode is to share what features I love the most and what I look for in a scheduler. 

  • Benefits of social media schedulers for podcasters

  • Factors to consider when choosing a scheduler (what to look for)

  • What features you’ll want for scheduling videos, reels and shorts

  • Why the ‘first comment’ feature is key right now for broader reach (and call to actions)

  • What you want to look for besides ‘features’s to choose the best scheduling tool
