How to Share a Post using Purple Leaf

Purple leaf offers multiple functionalities to plan and publish posts on different platforms. This article covers functionalities that can be used to publish posts on the go. Users have the choice to publish customized content for different platforms one at a time. The two functionalities we are going to cover now are 

  1. Share Button
  2. Copy button 

Both buttons are available on the post dashboard as well as the pages list. While most users prefer to use the pages list to review and publish posts, some like to view the page dashboard to compare posts across platforms. The screenshots for both tabs are shown below.

While both approaches have their benefits, we will be covering the pages dashboard approach in more detail.

The benefit of using the share button is that it automatically opens the requisite platform in a new tab and copies the post to the clipboard.

Step 1

Pro Tip: If you are not sure of which page to start with, share the post for the page which you think your customers would spend the most time on. A product deep dive would be great. A page highlighting why your product is better than the competitor is also great!
