The cost of a professional who runs a business page on Facebook or Instagram is constantly rising. You can save this money if you promote the business community yourself. And to save time on maintaining the group, we recommend using these tools.
Tools for Creating a Content Plan
To organically fill a business page, you need a content plan. In it, prescribe the date, rubric and topic. This will help plan the content of the page, intelligently combine useful, promotional and entertaining posts. When you have a schedule of publications in front of you, you can clearly understand what text or picture to prepare.
Google Tables
The tool is free, intuitive and easy to use. Three columns are enough for a content plan: date, rubric and title. If you have more than one person to fill a group, you can add a Responsible column and set up sharing, for example, with one person writing the posts and another person picking up the pictures.
Google Calendar
Another free tool that allows you to create tasks for a specific date and set reminders for important events.
To use Google Calendar for content planning, create a note for each post. Inside the note, specify the title of the post, a short description, and set a publication date. If you set up a notification, you’ll get a message that it’s time to get the post ready to publish.
Google Trends
To see the popularity, seasonality, and geography of a query, enter a keyword or phrase in the search bar. For example, for https://tonybet.com/ca/live, you can use keywords, like betting and odds.
Besides, Google Trends can track user trends. To do this, select the “Popular Queries” function in the menu and see what topics are of interest to users today. If what’s popular is relevant to your business, you can offer followers a news update, wish them a happy holiday, or write a thought-provoking post about an issue they care about.
Image Tools
Canva

With Fotor, you can process your pictures: add text, blur or sharpen the image, crop the picture, cut an object or person out of the frame, change the color scheme. Fotor lets you create a collage, a presentation, a postcard, a stop motion, or a logo.
Instasaver

You can also set up mass uploading of photos and videos from the same account. To do this, leave a request in the service – provide your email address, link or profile name, and the number of posts.
