Discovering good content about your topics you can re-use to grow your thought leadership and increase traffic to your content can be a tough task. There are quite a few tasks to do:

– researching the content across the web,

– filtering through it to find the most relevant articles,

– adding value to the original post to make it your own curated post,

– publishing it on your topic or on your blog, and

– distributing the content across all of your channels,

– scheduling other social media messages to promote the post over time.

Scoop.it aims to give you that precious time back by easily surfacing quality content that is relevant to your audience by just entering a few keywords and allowing you to easily add your own insight, publish to your topic or blog and share wherever you would like with a few other mouse clicks. You can also generate leads right from the content you share and create and send newsletters to your readers in minutes.

Why integrations matter for content curation and content marketing software.

To make that content valuable, it needs to be published wherever your audience can find it and that’s why we’ve built integrations to many platforms ever since we started to work on Scoop.it: of course all the major social networks but also blogging platforms such as WordPress or Tumblr so you can publish curated blog posts, email services such as MailChimp so you can create content newsletters easily and send Scoop.it-collected leads to your email lists, social media apps such as Buffer or Hootsuite, etc… All these integrations bring a lot of value to the Scoop.it experience and mean that as a user, you can save time not only discovering great content but also publishing it wherever it will have a meaningful impact on your audience.

But as our user base kept on growing, so did the requests for new integrations. We now have millions of users and even though we’re committed to support the main platforms out there and we’ll keep on adding new ones, we haven’t unfortunately been able to support all your requests…

Until now!

Connect Scoop.it to your favorite apps with Zapier.

Today, we are making Scoop.it even more flexible by adding Zapier. Starting today, you’re able to connect Scoop.it with hundreds of apps via the Zapier integration, including the ones you already use daily. Your content discovery and sharing is even easier. Send leads you gather to your CRM, email marketing platform, or even post to Scoop.it from any other Zapier connected app.

Here are just a few examples:

If you’re not familiar with Zapier, it’s a platform that connects hundreds of Apps together through their APIs. The idea is simple: if something happens in one App (defined as a “trigger” in Zapier’s terminology), an action can automatically be taken in another App. A “Zap” is a combination of a trigger in one App and an action in another App. That means that if your favorite App connects with Zapier, it now connects with Scoop.it too! To get started, all you need is a Scoop.it account (note: some Zaps will require a Scoop.it Content Director account) and a Zapier account. You can then use any of the above examples or start building your own.
