Speaker notes for my presentation at NY Tech Meetup
Below is approximately what I will be saying at tonight’s NY Tech meetup.
Hi, I’m Dave Lifson, CEO of Postling, a social media management tool for businesses. From a single place, you can write your blog posts, update your twitter and facebook status, and upload photos to flickr. Any comments that people leave on your blog or twitter or facebook or flickr get pulled back into Postling, for you to read and respond to. We’ve got a smart workflow that allows you to write your post, update your status to announce the post, and upload any photos contained within your post to flickr. Postling turns 20 minute tasks into 2 minute tasks, and I’ll demo it for you right now.
<Demo time!>
- Create a blog post that includes images of tasty cupcakes. Check off which blogs to publish to.
- Write a status update that announces the post. Drop in a bit.ly link. Publish to twitter, facebook, and a facebook fan page.
- Upload the images to Flickr and Facebook.
</Demo time!>
You can also schedule when you want your post to be published. When it publishes, the status update you wrote will also be published, along with any photo uploads you’ve scheduled.
We offer Postling for $9/month or $90/year, and there is a 30 day free trial (no credit card necessary), so I encourage you to sign up and give it a whirl. We also are interested in reselling partnerships, so if your company or a company you know has relationships with lots of businesses, I’d love to chat.
Speaking of which, I should say who we are. Postling is founded by Chris Maguire, Haim Schoppik, and myself. Chris and Haim are two of the three founders of Etsy.com, and I did software development and product management at Amazon.com before being hired to run Etsy’s Product team. We got the idea for Postling in mid-June, launched it August 1st, and here we are today.
Thanks so much for your attention. I’m @dlifson on twitter and my email is dave@postling.com. Thanks again, and have a good night.
