What should you look for in a good social media collaboration tool?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Whether you\u2019re on a five-person social team for an enterprise-level company<\/a> or you\u2019re a freelance social media manager<\/a>, social media management is all about collaboration.<\/p>\n

Collaborative social media tools and platforms make communicating and sharing ideas with your teammates or clients easy. From creating content to requesting approvals to managing different brand accounts, every part of the social process can benefit from feedback or, at the very least, a second opinion.<\/p>\n

Here are some features to look for in a social collaboration platform that will make your team\u2019s job much easier.<\/p>\n

Team communication<\/h3>\n

Social media isn\u2019t a solo activity. Whether you work at an agency or on an in-house team, you need to be able to quickly and easily communicate with others.<\/p>\n

This is where messaging tools like Slack can be helpful. You can send a quick message to your teammates whenever you want to check the status of a post or see who\u2019s available to answer a customer DM<\/a>.<\/p>\n

However, using an external communication tool can create bottlenecks in your process. Not only do you have to switch tabs or windows, but countless messages and threads can be hard to track.<\/p>\n

If you want to save time and streamline your communication, look for a tool that allows you to collaborate on tasks within the platform. For instance, in Hootsuite, you can assign tasks, such as engaging in the comment section or replying to customer service inquiries, to different team members within the platform.<\/p>\n

Real-time commenting is another communication feature to look for in social collaboration software. It makes it easy for your team to collaborate on posts or engagement.<\/p>\n

Workflow automation<\/h3>\n

If you want more time to collaborate on creative assignments or focus on strategy, you need to start automating recurring tasks.<\/p>\n

Look for automation features in your social collaboration tool to streamline repetitive tasks and save everyone on your team time.<\/p>\n

Hootsuite Inbox<\/a> allows you to create saved replies<\/strong> for frequently asked comments, questions and DMs. These pre-written comments help your team stay on top of customer engagement while saving themselves time \u2014 a win-win.<\/p>\n

Content planning<\/h3>\n

Good collaboration requires even better communication. Everyone on your social team should be able to map out and plan content by seeing what\u2019s already scheduled and what still needs to be created.<\/p>\n

A social collaboration tool with a built-in content calendar or planner can ensure everyone is looped into the content planning process<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Hootsuite<\/a><\/figure>\n

A content calendar tool<\/a> within your social management tool makes everyone\u2019s lives easier. This way, social team members can quickly and easily see what content is lined up for every platform.<\/p>\n

A built-in content planner<\/a> also helps maintain a consistent publishing schedule by making it easy to spot any gaps in your schedule.<\/p>\n

Analytics and reporting<\/h3>\n

When everyone on your team has insights into your brand\u2019s social performance, collaboration becomes a lot easier. Built-in analytics mean everyone has the same opportunity to share feedback or ideas.<\/p>\n

Your social media tool should not only generate reports but also allow you to share analytics with your team<\/a>. Whether you need to share monthly reports with leadership or other teams in the organization, having a social platform with analytics can help you prove the impact and ROI of your social media efforts.<\/p>\n
