Promotions

Promotions tracks where your content goes and how it gets there. (Previously called "Distribution" — the product now uses "Promotions" everywhere.)

What is a promotion?

A promotion connects a piece of content to a destination:

• An article linked to a social post
• Content scheduled for multiple platforms
• Tracking of what's been published where

Creating a promotion

From the header Create menu

1. Open the Create menu in the workspace header
2. Select Promotions
3. Select:
   • Content: Which article or brief
   • Channel: Where it's going (social accounts)
   • Schedule: When to publish
4. Click Create

From the sidebar

1. Go to Publish → Promotions in the sidebar
2. Click Create promotion
3. Select:
   • Content: Which article or brief
   • Channel: Where it's going (social accounts)
   • Schedule: When to publish
4. Click Create

Choosing a brief: The brief picker lists your most recent briefs first, with a load-more option at the bottom. Type at least two characters to search across all your briefs. The list scrolls normally on touch devices.

Default access: New promotions are shared with your team (Team access) by default, however you create them. If you need different visibility, choose it explicitly.
