How to automate Facebook posts with Smarter Queue
Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest… teacherpreneurs do it all. But do we truly have time to put 100% effort into each social media platform? When I learned about the power of automating posts on each platform, my social media game completely changed.
I am going to tell you today about Smarter Queue, which will automate Facebook for you. “Set it and forget it” will now be the best quote to describe your effort and work on Facebook once you start using this Facebook automation system.
What if you could show up multiple times a day to Facebook, without every having to actually show up? Smarter Queue is going to do this for you. You can have more posts per day, with no additional work.

What does Smarter Queue do?
The most important thing you can do on social media? JUST. SHOW. UP. Consistency is 100% the key to cultivating a social media presence and following.
Ever wonder how some of your favorite teacherpreneurs somehow “Show up” several times a day on your Facebook feed? Dollars to donuts, it’s because of a Facebook scheduler like Smarter Queue. They are not sitting around and waiting to push “post” several times a day!
Smarter Queue allows you to be present without actually being present. You can have multiple posts per day without ever needing to push “publish.”
Do you like the sound of that?? Smarter Queue is a complete game-changer.
How does Smarter Queue work?
In the screen cap below, you can see my queue is ready to go with a multitude of blog posts, products, and teacher tips.
I have Smarter Queue post five times a day for me (one for blog post, one for Amazon links, one for teacher tips, one for products, and one for mailing list). Smarter Queue alternates the time each day of the week that each category is posted. You can pick however many posts per day that you would like.
Smarter Queue cycles through your posts. So if you have 100 items in your Products category and have it post 7 times a week about products, then after about 15 weeks it will restart with the cycle. But don’t worry about repeating content… again only 5% of your audience ever sees your posts. You utilize a calendar with each category.
As you can see in the picture below, every category of mine posts every day, but I rotate the times that Smarter Queue posts it.
How will Smarter Queue Help a Teacherpreneur?
Why? It finally allowed me to batch my posts ONE single time.
Batching is going to be the best time saver that a teacherpreneur can do. Putting all your content into a program at once saves you hours… even days. No more sitting around scheduling Facebook posts.
Overall, adding all my posts and content to Smarter Queue has taken several hours. But I’d rather spend several hours up front than five minutes every single day brainstorming a post. Now, I only need to add new content into Smarter Queue when I create a new blog post or a new product.

Doesn’t Facebook engagement go down with a scheduler?
It’s personally not my cup of tea to manually schedule Facebook posts... I have too many other things to do! Splitting your time between social media accounts isn’t easy. Smarter Queue will take some of that work off your plate.
