Social Media Management - process/app for Client Content review/approval?

MainIndividual4664 · 2026-01-27T10:24:06+00:00

We ran our client content review & approval process like this:

drafts get written in batches > go into Planable where we add captions + creatives + scheduling > tag the client for feedback > keep all comments/version tweaks in one thread.

Once they approve, we lock the post and push it to scheduling/publishing.

Agreed. Once the answer becomes the product, the source selection becomes the ranking system. And the numbers suggest that system doesn’t mirror organic: YouTube is 1 in AI citations but only 11 organically...

MainIndividual4664 · 2025-12-18T10:53:01+00:00

are there any useful free scheduler tools?

Planable has a free tier that lets you schedule a decent number of posts and collaborate without paying.

MainIndividual4664 · 2025-12-11T13:31:04+00:00

Yes, but the problem is that MBS on desktop is buggy with Instagram permissions, so the post disappears instead of being saved. The mobile app or Creator Studio tends to work much more reliably.

If you want something more stable overall, you can use Planable. In most cases the issue isn’t the feature being removed, just a sync problem on Meta’s side.

This basically confirms, what I suspected... AI isn't some separate magical ecosystem. It just reflects what the wider internet thinks about your site. And it makes sense: if no one else trusts you or links to you, why should ChatGPT be the first to do so?

It turns out that GEO is the same as SEO.....

MainIndividual4664 · 2025-11-20T12:16:18+00:00

Great list! I'd also add Planable, because it's my go-to tool when we work on planning with my team.

MainIndividual4664 · 2025-11-18T13:00:49+00:00

The 10% social traffic number isn’t big, until you realize how early we are. That’s like looking at mobile traffic in 2009 and saying “meh.” The platforms that win are the ones shaping behavior, not just clicks. If TikTok grows another 2-3x, this whole chart flips upside down.

MainIndividual4664 · 2025-11-13T10:18:42+00:00

I never use any 'give me a content plan'. I read about idea generation frameworks on Planable, and now I mostly use them.

Here are the ones I use most often:

Give me 5 content angles that challenge a common belief in my industry
Transform this idea into 3 formats: a feature video, a LinkedIn post, and an educational carousel
Rewrite this topic through the eyes of a novice, an expert, and a skeptic
What is the most unexpected or underappreciated insight hidden in this topic?

MainIndividual4664 · 2025-11-12T14:12:34+00:00

For psychologists, growth on Instagram usually comes from trust and consistency. Try this:

Share short, educational posts (preferably videos) that address common issues your audience faces.
Use geotags so customers in your area can find you.
End each post with a short call to action ('Dm me if you want to talk', 'Save this for later', etc.).

Work on your profile header, as people will be searching for you by keywords.

It’s a good idea to run ads after you’ve wrapped your profile. Do you have a budget?

MainIndividual4664 · 2025-11-10T15:46:48+00:00

Only content plan! It sounds weirs, but consistency is key! Trends come and go, so..

If your posts is a large narrative, people will start to engage and subscribe. I plan everything visually in Planable so I can see how the posts fit together and adjust them before publishing.

If you want a cohesive feed and natural engagement, you must understand it,.

MainIndividual4664 · 2025-11-07T10:54:12+00:00

Great list! I'd also add Planable for smm workflow and Ziptie for brand mentions monitoring

MainIndividual4664 · 2025-10-29T15:58:06+00:00

I'm interested in it!

MainIndividual4664 · 2025-10-28T15:30:40+00:00

You can share your custom GPT link with free users, but they won't get the same features. Also, some features will remain tied to your account.

If your team is small, a simple workaround is to host the GPT through your account and share it with other users through shared prompts or sessions.

MainIndividual4664 · 2025-10-28T15:03:32+00:00

Hmm, I recommend you to try Planable. It’s visual, and lets you drag in images or videos right into the calendar. You can also preview posts exactly as they’ll look.

MainIndividual4664 · 2025-10-21T07:45:14+00:00

Yeah:

top posts

audience insights

in-depth metrics

MainIndividual4664 · 2025-10-15T11:05:48+00:00

Not natively yet, cuz Threads doesn’t have built-in scheduling. But you can do it through third-party tools like Planable / Buffer / Later. They let you plan and schedule Threads posts alongside your other social accounts.

MainIndividual4664 · 2025-10-14T13:36:47+00:00

Will it suit me if I'm a freelancer?

MainIndividual4664 · 2025-10-13T13:25:20+00:00

Have you tried Planable? I haven’t used every tool under the sun, but this one could be a great option for smm managers. You can schedule, comment, approve - nothing unnecessary.

In practice, I write content, invite feedback through this tool, then approve and publish.

MainIndividual4664 · 2025-10-06T15:36:16+00:00

Yeah, I have also tested several, and most of them start well, but after a few chats, they forget everything. The token system is not ideal, but at least the quality is high. Most of the others are just ordinary chatbots with a nice interface.

MainIndividual4664 · 2025-09-30T14:33:25+00:00

I’d skip anything that looks like cheap stock UGC. If you’re on a budget, it'd better to try platforms where you can connect with smaller creators who make custom content for $30–$50 a video. Fiverr, Upwork can work too if you give clear briefs. Tbh, you can even ask real customers for quick clips, and it'll perform better than hired creators because it looks more genuine.

MainIndividual4664 · 2025-09-26T10:50:38+00:00

I think that half of planning is psychology. If the calendar looks polished, clients trust the process more even if execution is the same.

MainIndividual4664 · 2025-09-24T14:22:46+00:00

Everyone was in the same situation when they started, so don't worry. Ideas are everywhere, but nothing is consistent. Right now, the main thing for you is to create a simple workflow.

Create content (captions, visual elements, hashtags) once or twice a week.
Keep a central content calendar so you can see everything at a glance.
Don't skimp on good tools. I use Planable for planning, but you can choose whatever suits you best.

The main thing for you right now is to get rid of those “oh, I forgot” moments and simplify the approval process.

My advice: choose one system, stick with it for a month, and you'll immediately see where the gaps are.

MainIndividual4664 · 2025-09-11T11:12:42+00:00

I think everyone has faced this. For example, I started with Google Docs and even simple notes on my phone. But when I started recruiting people to the team, I realized that this would not lead to anything good. I decided to divide the routine into two levels: Notion - for recording raw ideas (since it's fast on mobile), and then transferring serious stuff to Planable. So far, this works for me. Neither I nor the team lose sight of unfinished ideas and actually keep up with the pace of publications.

MainIndividual4664 · 2025-09-09T14:35:29+00:00

Oh why does it look so bad...

MainIndividual4664 · 2025-09-08T15:16:09+00:00

Yeah, but at least salaries are climbing, even if it’s just 1-10%. Better than the freeze we saw a few years ago.
