New Facebook Newsroom App Available

One of our most popular premium features just received a major upgrade! The PitchEngine Newsroom for Facebook App has been rebuilt to suite new Facebook requirements and provide a sleeker look with smoother integration. Note: If you are using the older Facebook Newsroom App you may want to upgrade it. Facebook could possibly stop supporting that app format after the first of the year.

If you are a premium subscriber, simply add the new app —> http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=319658771397626 <— to your brand’s Facebook page. You’ll be able to activate the app once installed by simply logging in with your PitchEngine credentials.

If you haven’t upgraded your account to take advantage of our newsroom features send us an email to support@pitchengine.com or give us a call 307-855-4011.

Connect Your Social Networks

We’ve recently added a new feature called Social Connect to your Brand Profiles. The feature will remain free while in beta and currently supports Twitter (and very soon, Facebook).

What does this do?
Users will be able to “auto-publish” to various social networks each time they publish a pitch. When you click the publish button on a specific pitch, we will post it to your brand’s Twitter followers and on the Facebook Page for a particular brand.

For those of you that subscribe to our Newsroom, Premium or Agency plans , you’ll see additional functionality. Once you connect a social network to your brand, we will add a tab to the streams (gray box) on your brand’s newsroom. This will enable readers to not only read your latest posts, but also connect with you on various networks.

How do I activate?
Simply login to your account and click on the brand you wish to connect. Choose “edit brand profile” and then click the “sharing” or “social connect” button from the menu at the right. Once connected, you can choose whether to auto-publish every pitch or not.

We’ll soon be adding other social networks too. And, with this new integration we’ll be able to serve up all sorts of data and analytics related to your pitches and their performance on your networks. Lots to look forward to in the coming weeks!
