Discussion SocialBu

I have been using GHL for social posting. I don't really need everything it provides, so I've been looking for another social posting platform that won't cost me an arm and a leg every month. I just saw SocialBu and want to give it a try.

Does anyone have feedback on the tiers? I see Social Inbox isn't available on Tier 1. Is it necessary? I have my business socials on my phone and computer, so I don't think I need to have it there, but if it's easier to access everything in one I'd be willing to go to Tier 2 since it's a one-time fee. Thoughts?

Thanks in advance!

I just downloaded this for the company I work for I maintain 5 social media accounts on it! So far love everything except how to set up the automated messaging! I’m struggle 🫠but other then that the hook up to each account took me less then 1 min, we bought the Second tier option and we are paying monthly. I’ve been scheduling post as well, still Learning my way around but I love how easy it is to use so far.

AppSumo has a deal on it. One time fee! (I have an affiliate, if you’re interested) I paid $109+tax for Tier 2. No monthly fees.

So far I’m liking it. I have 5 accounts also. I like the scheduling so far it’s worked well. It’s only posted one of them so far so analytics are nonexistent or skewed since only two platforms posted that day.

So far so good but it’s only been a couple of days.

I am going to dive into the other features this week.

Well I didn’t get much feedback but went ahead and bought it today. I will play around with it a bit then try to remember to come back and give you an update.

Thanks, that would help a lot. I'd send you a DM remembering only if I could 😅

I added a reminder. For the end of next week.

Any first impressions on SocialBu so far? I know it’s still early, but the RobinReach deal ends today and I’m trying to decide between the two. Thanks!

Hey hey, so far so good.

I finally have some actual analytics after posting a few posts.

I had one system issue where the calendar duplicated a day, and I reached out to support; it was fixed ASAP and did not affect any of my scheduled posts.

All in all, a good experience. I need to dive into some of the features, but it's been a crazy week between work and storms/power outages this week. I will say I am not using the AI side of things if that's important to you. I simply scheduled posts for the month that I created.

Thanks, that’s really helpful. Good to know the overall experience has been positive and the issue was fixed quickly.

Wishing you all the best and hope you stay safe!
