“What a beautiful view”

said Sam, our Social Media Manager at Crowdfire, whilst staring admiringly at the Calendar view of her scheduled posts.

Christmas came early here at Crowdfire when our Product Team informed us we were pushing out our latest feature to our lovely users — the Calendar View. This one’s the latest in the bag, and if I’m allowed to be biased, my most favourite feature on Crowdfire, till date. Sam would most definitely agree once she stops staring at her Social Calendar admiringly 😛

What is the Calendar View?

Calendar View is a visual representation of your Social Media Strategy, in one glance.

Now, you can view all of your posts published in the past and scheduled for the future in a single, systematic view on your Crowdfire dashboard.

The Calendar View not only gives you a bird’s-eye view of all the posts you’ve scheduled for your Social accounts throughout the month, but also a granular view of posts scheduled every day.

Look how beautiful! Green marks the posts which have been published, Yellow are the posts scheduled to go out.

Things you can do using the Calendar view

1. Schedule New Posts directly on a calendar

With the new Calendar view, you can now simply schedule a new post while looking at the rest of your timeline. This feature helps you schedule posts for a specific date AND time. Get started right away!

2. Reschedule posts using Drag and Drop

Now, you can simply drag posts scheduled for a specific day and drop it to some other date or time. This means easier rescheduling even when you’re on the go. This feature is especially useful when you want to move posts from content heavy days to comparatively emptier days. Give it a spin now!

3. Re-share old posts in just one tap

You can choose to re-share a post from the past with just one tap while looking at your Social Calendar. This feature is especially useful when you want to re-share a post which did exceptionally good in the past. Try it right away!

The Crowdfire Calendar was built to make planning content in advance easier and smoother for you, so that you no longer have to hop around to execute different parts of your Social Strategy in different places. And we promise, that’s exactly what it does!
