The Esputnik jobs you can stop doing yourself
You stay in charge of what goes out. Flann does the reading, the drafting and the chasing.
A week of social posts planned
Today
Posting happens when you remember, usually late at night and one platform at a time. Some weeks Esputnik sits empty.
With Flann
“Plan next week’s posts in Esputnik: two on the new range, one behind the scenes, one customer favourite.”
Turning your outline into captions sized for each network, Flann suggests times when your audience tends to be active and drafts the full week in Esputnik. Nothing is published or scheduled by default.
What you stop doing: Your feed stops going quiet in the busy weeks.
One offer, several languages
Today
Your customers read in more than one language, but the campaign in Esputnik goes out in one. Translating it properly means another tool, another copy and another check.
With Flann
“Translate the Ramadan offer email in Esputnik into Arabic and French.”
Writing each version as a native speaker would, Flann keeps your offer, links and layout intact and prepares a separate draft in Esputnik for each language list. Different language, same promise.
What you stop doing: Customers who read in another language finally get the same offer.
