SocialOomph, a long-standing, low-cost publishing tool, has shut down. Willow is an alternative — it drafts content in your voice, tags anyone on LinkedIn, and adds analytics and a dedicated coach.
Willow drops a personalised, quarter-long content calendar straight into your platform — drafted in your voice, ready to review.
The same criteria, side by side. Willow leans done-for-you content and coaching; SocialOomph leans publishing & automation.
