Schedule your Facebook Posts on the New Schedule System

Facebook recently updated its scheduling tool and this has caused some calamity among many users. The video below walks you through a screen cast of creating a scheduled post in the new system.
Why should you schedule your posts? There are two main reasons:
1. Scheduling days, weeks, or months (not recommended) of posts allows you to manage a part of your content plan in one sitting instead of taking time to make posts every day.
2. Using the schedule tool gives you a “last chance” to review your posts for spelling and link errors before you make the post live. If you begin thinking of it as an edit tool more than a time management tool, you will become more comfortable with it and use it to save time as well. You can also perform this same review function with your tweets through the Hootsuite tool.
