One of the most time-consuming tasks that comes with being a social media manager is find relevant, interesting, and valuable content to share with your audience. Many spend many hours every week seeking out content that they can share.After all, who wouldn't want to stay on top of your industry’s latest trends?

The truth is that for many social media managers, there just isn't enough time to dedicate to this task when there are some excellent tools already out there. Successful content curation is all about knowing your audience.

Once you've nailed your audience, you then need the right tool. Here are some of the best I've personally used to curate content.

Tool #1: Curata

Curata is an enterprise content curation system that is powered by the INSPIRE discovery and recommendation engine. Curata is amazing at finding content that is relevant to your audience once you fill out your profile and customize the categories that it pulls from.

Additionally, Curata has publishing and promotional modules that allows you to repurpose curated content across channels that include your blog, social profiles and newsletters.

However, Curata is a bit on the pricey side. At a starting price point of $499/month, it's safe to say that Curata is only going to be suitable for large teams with a hefty need for curated content across many social accounts.
