Employee advocacy software enables companies to empower their workforce to share branded content and information via their personal social media channels. With these tools, brands can build pre-approved content libraries for their employees, making it easy to share branded content via mobile, email, or social media channels. These tools help broaden a company’s social presence and reach by engaging its employees internally and increasing employee engagement and brand loyalty by encouraging employees to become loyal ambassadors of the brand. Additionally, this software allows brand teams and social media managers to control the company's voice and message across social channels.
Employee advocacy tools often play a part in companies’ social selling strategies, enabling sales reps to effectively communicate with prospects and customers on social channels while maintaining a consistent brand image and voice. Many of these tools offer gamification features to promote a higher volume of sharing amongst employees and analytical capabilities to measure employee activity.
