Easy Employee Engagement

Remember ‘Step 1’ from above? It was all about getting your employees to engage on LinkedIn.

But, if only there was a tool to make that process easier…

Enter Babmu. Babmu allows employees to easily find company content to share in one place. This tool is 🔥.

What we like: This tool is multifaceted. Not only does it allow your team to easily share company posts, but it’s also a great way to educate employees on company happenings.

What we don’t like: The reporting side of things could be better.

Do You Even Trello?

Calling all Trello users! We got a sweet Chrome extension for ya.

Add to Trello does just that.

Let’s say you’re sourcing out some content for a new board. Add to Trello will create new cards directly from your browser.

What we like: It’s quick and easy.

What we don’t like: So far, so good.

Awesome Screenshot

That’s exactly what today’s tool is called. This nifty Chrome extension is 🔥. It allows you to capture your screen and even record it if you need to.

We’re big fans. Give it a try.

What we like: You can capture the entire website. It actually does the scrolling for you. Edit, annotate and crop with ease.

What we don’t like: There’s no erase tool and capturing the entire screen can be buggy at times.

Calling Tab Hoarders

How many tabs do you have open right now? Ok, maybe not too many if you’re reading this in the am. But, by the afternoon, probably quite a few.

Today’s tool is going to make tabbing a little easier. It’s called Copy All Urls. It’s a Google Chrome extension that gives you the ability to um, COPY ALL THE URLS.

What we like: The ability to copy, paste and open/reopen tabs is quick and easy. The links will open in multiple tabs. It’s great if you’re doing some research and need to save links for another time without bookmarking.

What we don’t like: We like it.

LMGTFY

Here’s one for all you jokesters out there. We all have that friend on Facebook who posts every and any question they can think of. Meanwhile, you’re thinking, “Yo, just Google it.”

Enter ‘Let me Google that for you,’ aka LMGTFY.

Here’s how it works: Head over to the site and type in your friends’ question. It’ll spit out a link. Copy that link and send to your friend. Bam!

What we like: It makes for a good subtle burn.

What we don’t like: n/a

This is a Given

With all that Facebook Audience Insight talk, we couldn’t not feature it as our tool of the day.

Seriously, just head over to your Ads Manager and have some fun. We guarantee you’ll uncover some new interests to target.

What we like: There’s a ton of data to use and it’s easy to save new audiences through Insights.

What we don’t like: No complaints.

Maximize Productivity

Todoist is a simple and powerful to-do list app that’ll help you get organized no matter what device you’re on.

What we like: Clean UI. Simple interface. The integrations and labeling system are on point!

What we don’t like: The free version is a bit limiting.

Stories Creator

Now that we’ve debunked some IG algorithm stuff, let’s talk about a sweet tool for your stories.

It’s called Stories Creator by Buffer. If you’re looking for a quick and dirty way to spit out an image for your stories, head over to Stories Creator here. It’s web-based and about as simple as can be.

What we like: It’s completely free. The UI is clean and super straight forward.

What we don’t like: 0 of the things.
