Adding users to your account (Simple) will help you add multiple users to your HubSpot account. The HubSpot dashboard is extensive.

Most companies set up additional user accounts and assign responsibilities accordingly in order to make the process easier.

Using the social media publishing tool (Intermediate) will not only help you publish your blog posts to different channels, but also to understand the effectiveness of publishing your posts in each and every channel.
