There are no hidden secrets. Here are a few of the tools that we use as we work with your Digital Marketing Needs. And, we don’t “keep the keys” ~ we’ll teach you how to use them.
MailChimp
Email marketing is part of an effective marketing plan. We’ve used MailChimp for a number of years. Their “forever free” plan lets you have up to a total of 2000 subscribers and send out 12,000 emails a month. And, if you outgrow that, then you can easily afford their well priced plans.

HootSuite
Tracking Social Media across several channels can become daunting. HootSuite pulls your channels together into a single spot allowing you to schedule & post new content, easily engage and track your conversations, and analyze it to see what’s working or not.
Buffer
Buffer is another amazing scheduling tool. It lets you fill the funnel with awesome content to share & then sends it out over a pre-defined schedule you’ve set.
Want to automatically post to LinkedIn 3 times a week at 9:45 am & 4:45 pm? Set that schedule & whatever you send to the LinkedIn funnel will get sent. Want to post to Facebook during the week but not the weekend? Set it, fill it and let it drip on schedule.
It effortlessly covers the big four of Social Media: Facebook, Google+, Twitter & LinkedIn.
Bitly
Bitly is a URL shortening service that is totally free. The benefit? You don’t have a long hairy URL to share with others and you get analytics on your shortened links.
And, you can also request a special short URL to highlight your own brand. For example, we use DBKiltz.com. Instead of our shortened URLs being BIT.ly/_______, it is DBKiltz.com/_______. With either format you can customize the code that fills in the blank. So on top of a short & easy URL to copy and paste, it’s also easy to roll off your tongue.
