David and Kylie K
Illusionist
5.0

David K.: Hey there, I'm David, I'm an illusionist, and I give PromoRepublic a five. And if you want to see more videos like this, click below. Before choosing PromoRepublic, I looked at a bunch of other options. Probably the biggest one would have been Hootsuite to kind of automate my social media presence, and really just kind of the price of Hootsuite and some of the functionality of it just didn't really fit my needs at the time. Among the many reasons I chose PromoRepublic for my social media needs were its ease of use, the ability to preschedule months and months out, good base of pre-populated images and ideas to send out, and the fact that I could actually use it with my team, that we can both kind of get in there and do what we need to do and make sure that we're sending out as much social media content as we desire. Getting started with PromoRepublic was super easy. There's a ton of information online. And then just the layout of the interface was very user intuitive. It was super simple, both myself and my wife who use it with me. She was able to like jump right in and activate things and do all the stuff and make changes. And anytime it's easy for her, it makes life easy for me. If you're thinking about PromoRepublic, the only thing I can say is do it. Let's be honest. You have to be on social media to make your business thrive these days and PromoRepublic makes it super simple for you to do that. It gives you a ton of templates and ideas and they're very engaging with you in the customer service aspect of things as well. There's also a Facebook page. So yeah, my recommendation is to just jump in, do it. You won't regret it.

Leah T
Research Specialist and Program Manager
4.0

Leah: My name is Leah. I'm a research specialist. In my area... In the department it is about 11 to 50, and I would rate Instagram about a four. I use the Instagram for social media marketing, networking with other people in my area of focus for work, and being able to connect and recruit individuals interested in our programs. I chose Instagram for... Our area of focus is to provide a platform to connect on a more personal level. Working with other businesses and organizations and making it fun for everyone, not just in a serious setting and to also have the more aesthetic side and being able to attract people to our programs and organizations. I think the one thing about Instagram that I would like to improve for work use is being able to connect more with other apps, other social media platforms. I know it's capable, but the accessibility sometimes... And I don't know if it's on Instagram side or not, but we have struggled with the use of connecting with Meta. The admin services, it's old school and we want to have an easier way to provide all of our social media platforms connected with Instagram without having the hassle of stalling with verification or admin, even if we are the admin.
