Is your company lagging behind the competition? Are they using social media to its fullest extent? Do you need to catch up and overtake them? If so, this article will give you details on the many strategies you need to implement to use Facebook marketing to make your company come out on top.
Update your Facebook page regularly. Do not hesitate to post a new update every morning if you find that your subscribers check Facebook at least once a day. If your subscribers are not likely to check Facebook very often, share a weekly update to avoid flooding them with too many updates.
You can build value for your Facebook campaign by using this platform to share exclusive content. Give some specific examples of the kind of exclusive content your subscribers have access to. You could for instance use Facebook to share some coupon codes or let your subscribers know about the new products you have not released yet.
Do not hesitate to share links to other sites on Facebook. If you come across an article or a video your audience will be interested in, think about sharing it on Facebook. It is best to avoid sharing links to website you are in competition against or you could lose customers.
Know when to post about your business outside of your own Facebook page. Posting your opinion on Facebook profiles that you don't run can get your page some attention. Be sure it is positive attention, though. Only post on another person's profile page if you're sharing something valuable. Don't spam others.
Be careful of any images you post as ads, as only 20% of the image can be actual text. If you end up submitting an image which has more than 20% text, it will be rejected and you've wasted your time. Be creative and create an image which captures your audience's attention.
Keep your posts relevant. If you make kitchen appliances, everything you post about should have something to do with the kitchen. If you post too much about irrelevant things, the theme of your page will get lost and your bottom line could be affected as a result. It is important to stay on topic.
The whole point of Facebook marketing is to boost sales. You should set monthly goals to reach in sales. You need to actually get some earnings from all those Facebook likes or they don't really mean much. If you are disappointed in your sales, it might be time to make changes in your business strategy.
Share other content from other platforms on your Facebook page. Does your business have a website? A blog? A YouTube channel? Any time you upload new content related to your business, make sure it shows up on your Facebook Page as well. People are much more likely to be visiting Facebook the day you upload a new video than they are to be visiting your business's YouTube channel.
Don't post updates that are dull and boring. For personal posts, use your personal Facebook page. Your customers may not be interested in personal updates if they are not related to your business. If you must talk about other stuff, do it on your personal page.
Your page can "like" and post on other Facebook pages. However, tread carefully here. You do not want to simply spam other walls or post meaningless content. Look for opportunities to add value and interject your opinion. Doing so in the right way could help you be seen as a leader in your field.
Make sure that you don't allow your page to become a ghost town. If you don't have anything to post, go to your page and reply to come of your users' comments. This will give people the idea that you actually care about then as individuals and their loyalty is important to you.
If you are going to share links with your customers on Facebook, make sure that they are accompanied by some type of text. This will be looked at more positively than you randomly posting link after link. Posting text will also encourage users to comment, which is a great way to start a discussion.
Have the design of the Facebook page be like the one on your website. You should match your webpage colors to those on the wall of your facebook site. This will keep your brand uniform in all areas. If you make it too different then people may start to get confused about it.
Post pictures along with your text. It will make your post stand out in the newsfeed, and it gives it a little extra edge. Make sure, however, that you either use your own pictures or you use royalty-free images when posting. This is important because you do not want to essentially take someone else's property without asking.
Sharing posts about discounts or promotional events is a good way to provide valuable content for your audience but keep in mind that your subscribers will lose interest in your campaign if you only share this kind of content. Limit yourself to one promotional post a week and look for educational content you can share the rest of the time.
Always remember that it's sometimes impossible to correctly read the intended tone of a post. If your messages are sent out and they look robotic, people may not wish to be your fan any longer.
Don't only talk about your company on Facebook. That's the biggest problem most companies have when posting. They tend to just talk about themselves. Know that most of Facebook finds that rather boring. You won't build an audience that way. Find other things that fit your brand that you can talk about too.
