If this then that Put the internet to work for you by
creating tasks that fit this simple structure: if this then that. Think of all the things you could do if you were able to define any task as: when something happens (this) then do something else (that). For example: If I'm tagged in a photo
on Facebook or I tweet on Twitter then send me a text message or create a status message on Facebook.
How this can help your business: It essentially allows you to create
recipes for actions. For example, if someone mentions you on Twitter, you can automatically reply with a "Thanks for the mention on Twitter." People may know you're using an automated tool, but it builds a bit more engagement.
