Hi jason,

Greetings from social central here at Sked. We hope you're productive, engaged and healthy.

We partnered with the team at SocialInsider to dig into Instagram post data from 2019 and 2020. We did all the homework so you know which post types generate likes, comments, or saves - and for what size account. You can read the study here.

Have you gotten your custom invite to Clubhouse? If you're still waiting – or if you cashed in your invite but haven't really dialed in – here's the rundown.

Writing a brief is the first step in building a marketing plan, so avoid these pitfalls. We've also worked out the best way to start an IGTV series and laid it all out for you.

At Sked, we updated our collaboration tools so you can do more with your internal AND external teams. Tag your team members, send notes, approvals and updates in the dashboard and by email.

Plus, we're beta testing the use of alt-text on posts scheduled to Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.

In the past it's been hard to schedule content while also meeting accessibility guidelines or requirements – no more! Alt-text on your images allows your content to reach the millions of users around the world who are visually impaired – and they're also a great way to help social networks find and categorise your content.

If you want to schedule alt-text with your posts, and you're ready to join the beta, send us an email. Alt-text scheduling is available on all plans.
