With more than 2.8 billion users on Facebook, potential customers are looking for brands like you! By using a great Facebook marketing strategy you can broaden your reach, develop your brand identity and make sure your customers are informed.
With that being said the next question is where to start? Firstly, if you don’t have a Facebook Business Page for your brand, go ahead and make one. A Facebook Business Page is a free tool that allows brands to connect with their potential customers and build a community. Go to Facebook Businessto get started and make sure you fill in all the important information required.
Facebook has many sections that cater to your needs as a brand and can be added to your page to increase engagement. For example; your home page is the first thing that your customer will see, so make sure you use it to your advantage and make it as simple yet as attractive as you can.
Other sections like about; community; events; info and ads; offers and posts are equally important. So consider which sections best suit your business and complete as many of them as you can to keep your customers engaged and informed.
I would like to introduce some of Facebook’s Best practices that if applied, your brand can create a very engaging platform to be on.
