Big Bad Weekly Tip: Social Networking Timesavers

If you've started to use social media (Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc.) for book promotion, which we recommend for most authors in varying degrees, you may find yourself wondering how you’re going to keep all of your profiles updated. As you start to add additional networks, posting the same thing in multiple places can begin to feel tedious and burdensome. Not to worry—there are, of course, online tools that can help you manage your online tools.

• Pixelpipe.com
• Quub.com
• Minggl.com
• HelloTxt.com
