Hey there, and Happy New Year!
Let’s begin 2025 by protecting you from some heartache if you post content on social media.
Schedule months ahead? Suh-weet!
When I acquired my Customer Relationship Management software (CRM), I was thrilled to have a robot keep track o’ the calendar and launch my posts at the right time. 😎
But I didn’t know …
Many programs auto-detach from our schedulers every couple of months. If we don’t reconnect after we’re dropped, our content to that platform isn’t going anywhere.
If you’ve been ‘dumped,’ how do you reconnect?
Go to the area in your CRM where your soc med accounts are listed. Follow the guidelines to reactivate an account.
Note: You may need to log onto the account and jump through a few other hoops. Add peace and calm to the job by setting aside 15 minutes to get it done.
Now, find your next cut off day
Example: you find you have 23 days until LinkedIn disengages. You want to avoid LI, that day (from your CRM). But what day?
- Have an online date calculator find the date 23 days from now.
- Eliminate that date, ‘X’ing it out on your planning calendar.*
- Note (in that block) the program you’re avoiding that day.
* I mean one of those huge paper jobbies with big blocks to write in. You can flip back and forth between the months, getting the big picture in your mind. This is a great time of year to try it. It has made a big difference for me.
Disconnect days are not created equal
The detachment is only for that particular program. For example, if your LinkedIn date is on the 15th, but Facebook’s is not, you can schedule Facebook for that day.
One last thought …
I keep an eye on my numbers. They can change quickly. Every time I’m in my CRM, I check the days remaining for each account. You may want to get into that habit, too.
‘Cause I don’t want either of us to get caught with our soc med down! 😉
Thank you for coming by. I hope my information can help you and your friends avoid a disconnect with your posts.
Would you please help me grab some Google love by sharing this information? And please, repost to your soc med and friends who would like to know about this disengage ‘thing.’
Also, please subscribe to receive other tips to help non-overwhelm work and life. 😎
And I promise: NO inbox stuffing or giving away your information.
Thank you for spending part of your day with me. I know you’re busy, and I appreciate your time. I hope to talk with you soon,
