Animoto: Video Maker & Editor

Animoto is a “drag and drop” video maker and editor complete with a licensed music library and stock images. There are customizable video templates, cropping and trimming features, and a voice-over tool. Animoto even keeps all your video content on brand by uploading custom fonts and adding your logo as a watermark. Get all your content post-ready, on your time, without losing it in the drafts folder!

A free account allows you to create simple videos with Animoto branding, and there are three paid account options, starting at $8 per month for the Basic plan.

Feedly newsfeed dashboard and content search

Feedly

Feedly is a customizable news feed that collects news articles, blogs, social media posts, and other online sources that are relevant to your custom search. Sharing local news and real estate industry updates is part of a great agent’s social media strategy. Feedly does the searching for you, with the ability to share articles directly to your social media accounts or schedule them for posting through your preferred content planner. 

Feedly offers a free account with limited feeds and organizing tools. Pro accounts start at $6 per month with more features and sharing abilities.

Social media is meant to be a place for authentic engagement with your audience, to build their trust in you as a reliable source for their real estate needs. Managing that presence can sometimes feel like another job. These tools are free and affordable options to help you spend your time more meaningfully. Plan to sit down once a month or once a week to plan and schedule everything in advance. Then you’ll have more time for your other daily activities and to focus on your clients!

We may not be an app, but our photo editing services will definitely help your social media pages look stunning! Book Square Foot Productions for all your real estate photo editing needs and your feed will always be consistent and on brand.
