Hello again. I'm Phil Anderson, and in today's side dish, I'm going to give you a few of my favorite apps that I use in my social media management company and tell you a little bit about them.

And trust me, I get this question all the time.

What apps do you use in your social media?

Well, first of all, the obvious ones are Facebook, Facebook pages,

Messenger, Facebook ads manager, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, Snapchat, Pinterest, and TikTok.

Now, I spend most of my time on Facebook pages, Facebook ads manager, Twitter, and Instagram,

everything on the pages app on your phone that you can do from your desktop. You can also easily

What I tell people that are doing their own social marketing who complain how much time it takes to set up posts on your desktop,

look, just set them up on your desktop and that can include scheduling out as well and then monitor

from your phone throughout the day it's very easy to get a notification on your phone that someone

has responded to one of your posts and then answer it at a convenient time should you be busy

at the moment you get the notification now speaking of facebook the facebook ads manager is the next important app to get because you can create ads and or boosted posts right there from the Ads Manager app.
