There are many social media marketing apps. Some are free and some are expensive. The ones listed here are reasonably priced and for those just starting to grow their business on social media. If you have an app you love that you think other writers might find useful, please send it to TPrice at TonyaPrice.com and I will be happy to add it to the list.

Meet Edgar – Scheduling app.

Meet Edgar has many functions available for making your posts easier to schedule. One nice feature is the app will prevent you from violating Twitter or Facebook’s posting rules. The app is expensive. When you are just starting out or if you are short on cash, most social media apps offer a scheduling feature. For example, twitter offers this ability at no charge.
