The top 10 ways HeyOrca can help you impress your social media agency’s clients
Manage social media at an agency? Work in social as a freelancer? Every social media manager needs a sidekick – an intuitive and powerful social media scheduler.
We created HeyOrca to help agency and freelance social media managers boost efficiency (and keep clients happy!). And we're here to show you exactly how it works!
In this blog post, we'll dive into the top 10 ways HeyOrca helps social media managers collaborate with team members, impress clients, report on growth, and more.
Everything you need to know about HeyOrca's social media scheduler for agencies
Your social media agency has questions about HeyOrca. And we have answers!
1. How does HeyOrca work for social media agencies?
Social media marketing agencies use HeyOrca to create, collaborate, and build communities – all in one place.
Our scheduler is organized by calendars. When you use HeyOrca to manage multiple clients, each of your clients gets their own dedicated space. Each client or brand gets their own content calendar, media library, reports dashboard, notes section, and social inbox. So you and your team can keep each client’s content separate (and avoid any “Did we post that on the right account?” moments).
Of course, HeyOrca also offers agency essentials – including an approval workflow, social media reports, and custom settings – to help your team build trust with clients. (More on that later!)
HeyOrca is the best choice for social media agencies and freelancers that rely on collaboration to make an impact on social. With HeyOrca, your entire team gets a seat at the table. Because every plan comes with unlimited users.
2. Is HeyOrca easy for social media agency clients to use?
Yes! HeyOrca is powerful for marketers. And simple for clients. HeyOrca’s intuitive approval workflow makes it easy for clients to approve posts (even if those clients are not so tech-savvy). Plus, you can assign and require approvals from multiple stakeholders.
When you’re ready for your client to approve your scheduled posts, you’ll send them a shareable link. Your client will be able to view, approve, and leave feedback on your posts – all without logging in.
“Our clients love being able to view and approve, and provide feedback on content, with ease. They can even do so from their phones.” – Nicole G.
3. How many users can access my HeyOrca account?
As many as your heart desires!
Most social media schedulers will charge your agency extra fees to add additional users to your account. When that’s the case, teams tend to share accounts in order to save on costs, but this workaround ultimately compromises security and restricts collaboration.
When you use HeyOrca, you can add an unlimited number of users to your account. So you don’t have to worry about sharing passwords. And you won’t be penalized with a bigger bill when your agency’s team grows. Unlimited users = limitless collaboration!
4. Does HeyOrca integrate with my social media agency’s go-to tools?
Yes, HeyOrca integrates with your agency’s favourite tools for social media management, including:
- Canva: No need to open a million tabs! Our Canva integration allows you to edit and create Canva content right from HeyOrca.
- Google Drive: This integration allows you to easily upload media from your Google Drive account.
- Dropbox: If you prefer to use Dropbox, we’ve got you covered. Use this integration to upload media from Dropbox.
