SecureIO’s Social Marketing application helps content marketers create and schedule posts, manage
various social media accounts, analyze content effectiveness, and engage directly with social media
followers in one, centralized location.
In order to create social posts and analyze content with SecureIO Social Marketing, social media
accounts must be added as a stream on the application’s main dashboard.
Note
Be aware that personal profiles cannot be added as a stream. The main use of SecureIO Social
Marketing is to manage and analyze business accounts on social media platforms.
Warning
SecureIO Social Marketing has some limitations in regards to social media accounts. For example,
SecureIO cannot handle a large quantity of various pages (e.g. ~40 pages) under the same company.
The same limitations are present in a multi-company environment because of how the API is
constructed.
Warning
In multi-company environments, if every company doesn’t activate a page at once, it will result
in a permission error.
For example, if Company 1 is the only company selected from the main SecureIO dashboard, and
activates Facebook Page 1 and Facebook Page 2, then those pages will be accesible on the
Social Marketing dashboard.
However, if on that same database, the user adds Company 2 from the company drop-down menu in the
header, and attempts to add those same streams, it results in a permission error.
Social media streams
To add a social media business account as a stream, navigate to Social Marketing
app and select the Add A Stream button located in the upper-left corner. Doing so
reveals an Add a Stream pop-up window.
In the Add a Stream pop-up window, choose to Link a new account for a
business from any of the following popular social media platforms: Facebook,
Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter, and YouTube.
After clicking the desired social media outlet from the Add a Stream pop-up window, SecureIO
navigates directly to that specific social media outlet’s authorization page, where permission must
be granted, in order for SecureIO to add that particular social media account as a stream to the Social
Marketing application.
Once permission is granted, SecureIO navigates back to the Feed on the main
Social Marketing dashboard, and a new column, with that account’s posts, is added.
Accounts/streams can be added at any time.
Important
A Facebook page can be added as long as the Facebook account that grants
permission is the administrator for the page. It should also be noted that different pages can be
added for different streams.
Note
Instagram accounts are added through a Facebook login because it uses the
same API. This means, an Instagram account needs to be linked to a
Facebook account in order for it to show up as a stream in SecureIO.
