Your brand,
ready to post.
Social studio turns SmartSource's post templates into finished graphics for your credit union — set in your colors, filled with your photos, and checked by your team before anything goes out.
A picture of Social studio: four sample posts with their approval status, and the panel for editing the selected post.
From idea to post in four steps.
SmartSource usually does steps one and two for you. You can always jump in and edit yourself.
- Live
Pick a template
Rates, member stories, events, tips and more — each already set in your credit union's colors and fonts.
- Live
Fill it in
Type the headline, choose a photo from your library and watch the post update as you go.
- Coming soon
Send for approval
Your approvers see the final post exactly as it will publish, and sign off or ask for changes.
- Coming soon
Schedule and post
Connect Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn and set a time. Until then, download a ready JPEG.
Thirteen templates. One brand.
Designed by SmartSource for the posts credit unions actually make. Every one is checked to fit your headline before it's saved.
- rate promo
- member story
- event
- financial tip
- holiday hours
- community
A picture of the shared photo library: photos with their alt text, one still needing it, and a space to drop new photos.
Your photos, finally in one place.
Upload branch shots, member photos and event pictures once. Your team and SmartSource pull from the same library.
Alt text on every photo
A photo can't go into a post until it's described, so every post is accessible by default.
Tags that make sense
Find "branch", "mortgage" or "community" in seconds.
Archive, never lose
Retire a photo without breaking the posts that already use it — and restore it any time.
Nothing posts without a yes.

Questions credit unions ask.
Do we need a designer?+
No. The templates are designed for you, and SmartSource sets them up in your brand. If you can type a headline, you can make a post.
Can we use our own photos?+
Yes — upload them to your library. JPEG and PNG work today; iPhone HEIC photos need converting first.
Who decides what gets posted?+
You do. Your Lobby admin chooses who on your team can approve posts. SmartSource never publishes without that approval.
Which networks will it post to?+
Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn are planned. Until scheduling arrives, download the finished JPEG and post it as you do today.
Is Social studio an extra cost?+
Lobby starts at $250 a month per credit union. See pricing or get your price.

We'll set Social studio up in your brand and walk your team through it.
