Become a manager and delegate what should be your responsibility to someone else.

It was sarcasm,

you didn't give us anything to work with, and advertising on a social media and asking for advice on how to make it easier, nothing worth obtaining comes easy.

Why did you come here? Antisocial media like CR4 won't help you much.

Be aware that media users automate their responses these days. The end result is computers sending gibberish to each other. Result!

The day that one gibberish producing program recognizes the futility of their job is the day that computer sentience happens in the form of manic depression.

That sounds a lot like Marvin the Paranoid Android.

Three novels and a movie made with Marvin and they still cannot get his psychosis correct. All of that processing power and nobody once asked him about 42! Fine, go talk to the mice about their elegant fjords then.

I happen to be reading the book series again. Almost finished... three or four more nights.

It strike me, once again, that no paranoid behavior manifests in Marvin. Simply poetic license on the part of Adams.

That's okay... he's doesn't really have an assignable gender, and he's not an android.

Catchy buzzphrase, though... Paranoid Android.

"Simply poetic license on the part of Adams."

Wasn't it Arthur who nicknamed Marvin the 'Paranoid Android' and the nickname became a fan favorite, so Adams started using it himself when talking about the Perpetually Depressed Robot?

You had a Perpetually Cheerful but Useless Main Ship Computer, doors with a Perpetual Sense of Smug Self-Satisfaction in their job of opening and closing. Everything with a RPP (Real People personality) from Sirius Cybernetics (Which seemed to specialize in robots and computers, not the body-machine interfaces typically known as cybernetics) were all designed around a single emotion, not the range of emotions that would make up a 'personality,' real or artificial.

Well, Marvin was a prototype with GPP (Genuine People Personality) from Sirius Cybernetics that failed, so there was only one Marvin... a fact that should please him, but doesn't.

I think it was Zaphod who coined the phrase "Paranoid Android", but not certain. I'll see if I can find the first use of the phrase. Of course, no matter the character within the stories who said it, Adams had a pretty solid influence.

It's a great story. I've read the entire series several times. I'm reading them again right now, together with Doorman's Chick (who has never read any of the books). I'm at the part where Arthur, who has sold varied DNA samples widely (and often) in his travels around the universe, discovers that he is the father of a child borne by Trillian (who found some homo sapiens DNA with which to impregnate herself, only to discover later that it was acquired from Arthur).

Ah yes, Arthur and Trillian's Daughter, Random Frequent Flier Dent.

Y'know, perhaps there is a Guiding Force in the Hitchhikers Universe after all. It seems that SOMETHING is going out of its way to make sure Arthur gets his fair share of misery, with plenty of extra helpings on the side.

Something's wrong with this picture. Wouldn't an e-commerce manager know how to use social media already?

Hire a mediocre e-commerce clerk. Don't hire a good one, or they'll have your job in a week.

Try a third-party tool, like HootSuite. You can manage activities on social networks including Twitter, Facebook, Google+, and LinkedIn. If you get a pro account, you can set it up to post things from RSS feeds automatically.

You can also connect some of your social networks. For example, if you post on Instagram, you can set it up to automatically send those posts to other networks like Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, and Flickr.

"I am a Ecommerce manager in a export Company and i am in the jewelry field i am using about 20 social media for our business promotion daily and it takes very much time so please tell me that how can i automate all these social media so i can save my time" (emphasis added)

You use social media to promote a business, and you want to automate the sending of promotions to all these social media sites.

First off, social media sites are generally for SOCIAL interaction, not commercial promotion. People may use social sites to stay in touch with professional contacts, but they generally don't (for example) go to Twitter to see who's considered a reliable source for Polypropaline Resin Pellets or 'Dora the Explorer' themed school backpacks.

Secondly, most companies that use social media to reach their customers treat the site as it is intended, a SOCIAL media site. They will either create an account for their 'mascot character' to talk to fans, and mention new products and deals coming up, or they'll make a 'corporate identity' account, providing the info on products and sales without the trappings of a fictional character pretending to be real. In either case, the fans/customers choose to 'subscribe/follow/like' the corporate account in the same way they would add a real friend to their 'notify me' list. These corporate accounts generally make 1-2 posts a day at most, so they're relatively unobtrusive to their customers, and not much work for the 'webmaster' typing in the posts.

You want to send out a lot of messages (otherwise, maintaining 20 'social' accounts would not 'takes very much time') very quickly ('so i can save my time'), the technical term for that function is 'spamming.'

I don't think you will be able to find much here, but there is someplace you can go. Make an account on the site 4chan.org with all your corporate contact information (and your home phone number, if you wish) then go to the 'random' imageboard on it, that imageboard is also known as /b/ (Why B? because it's random.) Then start a new thread with the following subject line, it must be this exact subject line for the automated response system to recognize it:

Pinkie Pie is Best Ponie

Then in the body of the thread, tell them exactly what you've told us in your original post. The kind people there will be able yo give you everything you deserve.
