The ActiveTrail jobs you can stop doing yourself
You stay in charge of what goes out. Flann does the reading, the drafting and the chasing.
Trackable links for every campaign
Today
Every flyer, post and email needs its own short link so you can tell which one worked. Making and naming them in ActiveTrail is fiddly, and the names are never consistent.
With Flann
“Make short links in ActiveTrail for the menu page, one each for Instagram, flyer and email.”
For each channel, Flann prepares a short link in ActiveTrail with a clear name and the right tracking tags, and shows you the list. A small job, done properly.
What you stop doing: Nobody has to remember the tracking tags or the naming rules.
Gaps in the marketing calendar
Today
On Monday you rarely know what is already scheduled in ActiveTrail and what has quietly run out. Gaps appear right before the busy dates.
With Flann
“Anything scheduled in ActiveTrail for the next fortnight? Where are the gaps?”
Instantly, because it is only a look-up, Flann lists every scheduled email and post in ActiveTrail by date and points out the empty stretches before the dates that matter to you. It can suggest something for each gap.
What you stop doing: Quiet weeks stop catching you by surprise.
