When most people think of Campaigns, they think of paying to send ads through social media platforms, but there is more to it than that. Using Campaigns, you can create free Facebook, Instagram and/or Twitter posts, and schedule when you want them to be posted.
|
Before you can schedule social posts, you must connect your social media accounts to Command through the Applications page in Command Settings. You will find a Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter option, labeled (Post Scheduling), which are separate from the connections you set up to send ads. |
To create and schedule a social post:
1. Log in to http://agent.kw.com with your Keller Williams login credentials.
2. Click the Campaigns icon,
, on the left side bar.
3. Click Social Posts at the top of the page.
