Post Events to Facebook and Twitter in One Step

In our never ending effort to create a better user experience for our business owners and managers, we have launched a handy feature that allows you share events on your business calendar directly to Facebook and Twitter as you are adding them. No extra steps, no special codes, no copy and paste - just add a message if you’d like and select the accounts you’d like to post to.

On Facebook, the events you post show up as an actual event with the date and time, and include an image or a message if you like. On Twitter the post will add a short-url to whatever message you add to the post. Its all there in one step, and its quick and easy.

Next up is that moon elevator everyones been talking about :)

Update Twitter from Your User Page

Well for those of you who don’t know what Twitter is, its a ragingly popular new messaging service that lets you broadcast short messages of 140 charachters or less to people who “follow” you, or those who care about what you have to say. For businesses, it is becoming a popular tool to send out specials and build good will with your customers, often resulting in more sales for those businesses using it wisely.

Since our ultimate goal is to help our small business customers increase sales, we just pushed out another great feature for our customers and users: Post to Twitter. As of last night anyone can update their Twitter Status from your User page, simply by adding your Twitter username and password to your User Profile. For those Businesses who use our Dashboard to track click throughs and views of their page, you will now see a message prompting you to either add your Twitter account, or to Post to Twitter if you already set it up.

No fancy stuff, just enter your Username and Password to Twitter like you would however you access Twitter, and then start sending your messages instantly. The beauty here is that not only will all of your followers see your post this way, but anyone who goes to your Business Page on TheSaratogaLife will see it too!

Let us know if you have any problems, but you should see a message in RED if you have any errors. As always you can contact us by clicking the “We’re in Beta” bubble in the top right. We’ll get back to you as soon as we can.

Thanks for stopping by today and being a part of The Saratoga Life
