Tools That BMG Uses To Stay Organized

Written by Alanna Moore

Sometimes, staying organized can seem rather difficult when you have a lot on your plate. Luckily, the internet is swarming with tools to help you stay on track. Here are the apps the BMG team uses in their day-to-day to make sure we stay organized.

For Team Management: Slack

Communication is crucial when you work in a team — no matter how big or how small. So, making sure you have a good platform for communication is key. At BMG, we love Slack because it provides us with a space to brainstorm, ask questions, plan content, and more with one another, which is extremely helpful when working remotely.

On Slack, you can create different channels to keep all your conversations about a specific subject in a specific place. Plus, you can always send direct messages to your coworkers if you need an answer quickly. 

For Content Scheduling: Planoly

When it comes to content scheduling, Planoly is our go-to platform because it allows us to manage all of our content in one place, from our company’s social media content to our clients’ posts.

We promise when we say using a social media planner will make your life ten times easier, we mean it. Staying organized and on top of all your tasks requires planning, which is exactly why using a platform that lets you schedule your social media posts is so helpful. 

For Keeping Up With Trends: Later Blog

For Brand’s Media Group, “staying organized” involves staying on top of social media trends. While there’s a myriad of online blogs and magazines that will keep you informed on everything happening in the social media world, Later Blog is hands down our favourite. On this site, daily articles are released about a wide range of subjects, ranging from Instagram news to video strategy help. Just about all the info you need to say up-to-date with the latest social media trends is right at your fingertips on Later Blog.
