# Marketing tools

Your marketing tools have their own entries in the **Dashboard** sidebar. On a phone, tap **Tools** to open the same menu.

- **Ads**: use **Connect ad accounts** or **Manage connections** to open one panel for all ad platforms. The same compact account card stays available on every **Ad network** tab. Choose a network to manage campaigns. Ad spend is billed by the network.
- **Social Media**: create and schedule posts. **Needs review** holds social drafts for approval. Use **Calendar** to see scheduled posts and **Connect accounts** or **Manage connections** to open the platform list. Choose a platform to manage its accounts.
- **Blog**: create and manage articles.
- **SEO & AI Search**: manage search visibility.
- **Images & Video**: create and reuse media. Documents and audio remain in **Files**.
- **Email & Text Broadcasts**: send a one-time message to contacts or a segment.

These marketing tools keep their existing plan requirements. Start with [Edit your business info](/docs/marketing/business-profile) under **AI Receptionist > Business profile**. Ads also has an **Edit business profile** shortcut to the same guide.

Ask Buildy to [analyze your ads and social posts](/docs/marketing/analyze-marketing-performance) from your connected accounts, including content made outside Buildy.

Automated sequences are in **AI Receptionist > Follow-ups**. The **Automated follow-ups** links in **Ads** and **Email & Text Broadcasts** open that same list. See [Follow-ups](/docs/agents/follow-ups). Your number for calls and texts is in **AI Receptionist > Business Phone Number**.
