Social Media Management, Content Creation and other Technological Skills
In my internship at Saving the Date, there are many tools and technological apps that have helped me to manage the social media as well as create content that have been beneficial in my internship work. The following are descriptions of how I have grown in learning these skills and applications.
Social Media Management Tools
-
Later.com - Later has provided a quick an easy way to post on instagram with a few directions and a touch of a button. This website has been the number one handy tool that my boss has recommended for me to use since the beginning of my internship. It helps schedule the time and date to post, what to caption the picture, who to tag, and you can edit the picture on Later if need be. With my experience in creating editorial calendars, this was not hard at all to navigate. Here is a picture example of the layout for Later.com.
-
Buffer.com - Buffer is another website I have learned to use during my social media internship. I have used it more to see analytics of posts, but to also see the suggestions of what time to post on social media, which depends on the specific social media platform and what time during the day.
-
Social Media Platforms - I have grown tremendously in my skills regarding social media management straight onto the platform. I know how to see the analytics on both facebook, and instagram as well as managing both at the same time. I am continuing to learn skills, but managing straight onto the platforms have been a great hands on experience in my experience during my internship.
-
Graphic Design Tools - Besides pictures that are posted, the content I have created during this internship is either straight from Canva or Figma. For content that is purely text, I have mostly used Figma to create that specific content. For the stories on Instagram and Facebook as well as the graphic design content that includes words and pictures, I have used Canva in order to create that content.
