Countdown timers, forms, and social media management

Empower Your Aura
Will there be the possibility, in the future, to:
- Add countdown timers in emails to promote an event, new product launch, or a short-term discount.
- Include forms in product landing pages or emails for small inquiries/feedback or to better understand the audience, such as in a coaching situation or to improve engagement.
- Manage social media and schedule posts.
Thank you for your time, and keep up the amazing work!

Hey Empower Your Aura, thanks for your feedback! I have a few more questions for you:
- Could you provide more details on how you envision the countdown timers functioning in emails? For example, would you like them to be customizable or have specific features?
- What kind of information would you like to gather with the forms on product landing pages or emails? Could you provide an example of a situation where you would use these forms?
- Could you elaborate on the features you would like to see in the social media management and scheduling tool? Are there specific social media platforms you are interested in?

Hey Jacob Choi-Durham, sure :)
- I like a minimalistic look, but yes, customizable would be amazing. (here is the link to an image of a timer I got via email from another creator where he used a timer - https://www.jonhillstead.com/countdowns.gif?token=3k4bj3 ).
- In my case, for my coaching sessions that I'm planning to launch soon, I would like to prepare the session in advance. For that, I would need the client to answer a few questions. I once applied to a session with a creator who used Calendly to book her appointments, and this is one of the features they have as "pre-meeting questions" (providing the link to Calendly for education: https://calendly.com/features )
I know Beehiiv also uses this feature embedded in the newsletter but on their paid plan - so I can't help much with getting the images to this part.
But it would be great to have some feedback from my audience, for example, when I share insights, resources, did they like what they just received? Did they think it was boring? Did they get to the bottom of the newsletter and took the opportunity to respond to the survey/poll? Have an open box so they can suggest content/topics for the emails? Do they have questions? and so on...
- To be completely honest - I know this takes a buuuunch of work, as everything else I just proposed - you could become the most direct competitor of Metricool on this one. Having a platform where I can schedule, manage, analyze, add comments, schedule stories, and everything in all social media platforms, is incredible. And, to be even more honest, I would rather pay to do everything in one place (in this case, Beacons.ai), rather than be jumping between apps or tabs to have all done. But this can also be kind of bitter-sweet to creators. For example, Metricool is a partner of Google, Meta, and X, but if you use Metricool to schedule your posts on TikTok, your posts don't perform well (I speak from my own experience).
PS. I've tried to add screenshots to this reply, just to help better understand what I meant, but for some reason, it doesn't allow me to do.
Hope this helps :)
Feel free to reach out if you need anything else from my end.
Thank you.
