Information

Where and what are the administrator settings?

As an Administrator, you have access to a variety of settings that can be adjusted to manage your platform effectively. These settings are accessible from the navigation bar on the left-hand side of your screen.

Within the navigation bar, you can explore the different settings available to you.

Personal

Your Personal settings are account settings specific to your own user account.

Company

Company settings allow you to change the name of your platform or update your logo.

URL Shortener

If you have a custom bit.ly account that you would like to integrate into PostBeyond, you can do so in the URL Shortener section.

Why use bitly? It is not required since your company has access to all of the PostBeyond URLs through UTM parameters. However, if your company uses bitly for other marketing materials, you may choose to do the same here to remain consistent.

Remember: Bitly tracks clicks but doesn't provide any website visit data.

Earned Media Value (EMV)

Earned Media Value allows you to set your definitions of the value of each type of interaction.

Notifications

Here you can select which notifications you would like to receive as an Admin.

Integrations

In Integrations, you can link external platforms to your PostBeyond account, including:

• Slack and Microsoft Teams to push newly created content directly to these channels to maximize user visibility.

Personalization

This is where you can add placeholder text for Twitter and Facebook captions.

Compliance

Compliance is where you can update prohibited words and phrases to ensure that users do not say anything that may be contrary to your company's brand.
