How do you broadcast messages to social media apps?
Hello Indie Hackers,
Recently i face a problem broadcasting my text messages to multiple social media apps, my objective was to just send messages to my own channels and groups without any additional handling such as scheduling. I found that platforms like Buffer, Zapier, IFTTT covers only a small number of providers, namely most popular ones. So how do you broadcast your messages? How do you think would it be nice to have a solution to send messages to multiple sources over the http requests?
Thanks for any feedback
Is this a one-off thing? People can tell when they are being mass messaged and if and when you do not respond to comments. Just generally a bad strategy if your intent is to build authentic following.
And to answer your original question, I got to each platform to post. I mean there are like 8 platforms (maybe?) and they all have a different feel. Most times I don't want to post the same message in more that 2-3 place, because it doesn't "fit" the other ones.
Anyway - you do you. I don't have a following so I can't really advice in that regard, just saying I would never use these types of apps.
Hi, @MF706
In my case i have several groups and channels of my own and since their audience is different i want to distribute the same content over them to keep users informed. So i stuck with sort of centralized distribution of the content.
Interesting; if it is working for you then definitely pursue that path. I am curious, how did you build your audience when you had a few hundred members/followers? I got into the social media game very late and I have very few friends, so I am struggling with this a bit. I listen to Gary V a lot, which is my primary source of info on this topic. I would love to hear about your journey.
