Hey Team!

Here are some social media tools for you to check out:

1. ILikeEtsy - http://ilikeetsy.com/
This is a service for adding Facebooks like to your Fan Page. Plus you get a permanent add/link on their site. you like member's fanpage to move to the top of the page where all the ads are displayed. the more pages you like the higher you climb. Watch out it's cut throat at the top! (Tip don't try to like pages too quickly as they has safeguards against bots trying to auto like).

This service is not free but the price is right. $5.00 bucks is within my thresh hold of pain and was worth it for the 100 likes and counting.

2. Rafflecopter - https://www.rafflecopter.com/
This is a site for hosting contest. The have a free option and it is very easy to set up and use. I am running my first contest. The turn out was not awesome, no fault to the service...things just take time to get going. I will definitely make use of this service.

3. RebelMouse - http://rebelmouse.com/
This is a free service with the option to upgrade to a premium account. It aggregates your social media from various sources based on your tags, posts, keywords, etc...all onto one or more pages. It's looks like Pinterest but the more to it...did i mention it has analytics!

Of course I made a Team Page!!! :) - https://www.rebelmouse.com/etsymnt/

One tip for using tweet deck and twitter in general. Create lists to manage your followers/followed. I created a list for etsy people and so it make it very easy for me to keep track of who to retweet etc. In tweet deck you can use "add a column" for your new list and easily see the activity for this group for example :-)
