Do you find it challenging to keep up the level of consistency you'd like in posting to social?

I personally find that sometimes I'm in a flow and I'll be posting several times a week. And then other times, I can get pulled in other directions and go dark for weeks.

This struggle is why I'm personally so excited about what we've added to Buffer today.

Introducing Streaks! Post at least once a week to build up a streak. Miss a week and your streak resets.

It's a gentle nudge to help you keep your consistency on social, which is key to hitting your growth goals.

When you achieve consistent posting, you start to benefit from compounding. Not only does it get easier over time, but you'll be getting more consistently into the conversation, building your community, and staying top of people's minds.

We looked at the data and it's fascinating to see that it reflects this compounding. We found that if you achieve a 10 week streak of posting, you'll see up to 5x more likes, comments and reposts on your content than if you remain inconsistent.

Head into your Buffer account to see your current streak (they're counted from the beginning of the year). Coming to mobile apps soon!

Happy consistent posting!
