Creating Posts for Socials

Learn how to post photos and videos to social media directly from a Project or the Social Posts page using Marketing Suite.

Marketing Suite lets you post photos and videos to Facebook, Instagram, X, TikTok, LinkedIn, Google Business Profile, and YouTube directly from CompanyCam. Post now or schedule for later, as many times as you want.

This feature is part of the Marketing Suite Add-on and is only available on the web app.

FAQs

Can I connect a social account to each location if we have more than 1 location?

You can connect social media accounts to each location. Every location keeps its own set of connected social channels, so a post goes out from the accounts tied to the location you're posting from.

Can I schedule posts for different times per platform?

Scheduled posts go out at the same date and time across every connected platform. You can't stagger them by channel right now. They post all at once.
