Social sets

1. 1

   1. Press the set's name at the left of the top bar.

2. 2

   2. Press Create a social set.

3. 3

   3. Enter a Name and pick a Type: Personal or Business. Press Create.

4. 4

   4. Connect the set's first account. The new set opens on Accounts, and its other sections open once one account is connected.

Your plan sets how many sets you can have (Plans and usage). A set that writes as your personal Hive doesn't count toward it. An account can belong to several sets, so a shared account connects once. See Connect your accounts.

Business: Buzz writes as the company, in its voice. Personal: Buzz writes as you, in your own voice, about the company you run.

A Business set writes as your company's Hive profile. A Personal set writes as your personal Hive, which Buzzmark makes the first time you create one. Personal Hives explains what Buzz takes from you and what from the company.

You can switch the Type later in the set's General. Buzzmark then offers to move the set to the other Hive, and nothing moves until you switch that on and press Save.

1. 1

   1. Press the set's name in the top bar, then Manage social sets.

2. 2

   2. Pick the set. Its settings open on four sections: Accounts, General, Scheduling and New drafts.

General holds the set's name, its type and its connected accounts. The name shows in the switcher at the top of every page.

Picture is the image beside the set's name everywhere, the switcher included. Pick a Colour and Initials or icon, or press Upload photo for a PNG, JPEG or WEBP image up to 4 MB. Every pick saves at once. A photo shows instead of the colour until you remove it.

Writes as is the Hive profile Buzz writes the set's posts in: its voice, products and what it knows. Change it here, or under Social sets on your Hive page, where every set is listed with its Hive. The set's next Buzz uses the new voice. To write one Buzz as another Hive, change it in the composer instead.

Every set schedules on its own clock. A Buzz scheduled for 09:00 goes out at 09:00 in the set's time zone, wherever you are when you schedule it. Buzzmark takes the zone from your browser when the set is made.

1. 1

   1. Open the set's Scheduling.

2. 2

   2. Pick another Time zone, or press Detect to take your browser's zone again.

Change it when your audience lives somewhere else. Posting slots and natural times live in the same section: see Posting slots and best times.

New drafts decides which accounts a new Buzz from the set starts with. Every account switched on there is ticked in a new Buzz, and an account you connect later is switched on by default.

1. 1

   1. Open the set's New drafts.

2. 2

   2. Switch each account on or off.

3. 3

   3. Press Write for this first on the account a new Buzz is written for. It moves to the top and reads Written first.

Each switch saves at once. The other accounts use the first account's text until you change theirs (A version per platform), and any single Buzz can change its accounts in the row above the text (The composer).
