Facebook is one of the most powerful marketing platforms today. It is not at all surprising that most businesses today take advantage of this widespread reach to promote their businesses. However, we all know that simply creating a Facebook page for your business is not enough to get people in the door. You need to get people to like your posts and keep them engaged with your activities. How then, do you increase your Facebook likes and engage your social media audience? 1. Share Fun Facts Directly Related to Your Brand Crazy, fun facts sell much better over the same boring posts. Facebook users just cannot help but clicking on posts and topics that are completely out of the ordinary. Keep in mind, though; even crazy and fun facts should have a connection to the brand image you are promoting. You should choose and post fun facts that relate to your service, products, or employees. 2. People Just Love Tips If you have something worth sharing, definitely do it, but be generous with what you know. Whether it is your knack for scoring the best travel deals or finding the best car insurance providers, Facebook users just cannot resist reading about tips. Post photos and tips that will be helpful to your Facebook audience and friends. If you have a photography business, for example, post great photos you have taken and write a few tips on how your audience can capture fantastic photos using their cell phone cameras. The important thing to remember is to keep these posts interesting, useful, and empowering. A clear understanding of what your Facebook audience is interested in will help you identify posts that many people will like and share. 3. Ask and Encourage Questions The surest way you can get your Facebook audience to engage is to just ask! Again, it is important to know your audience well and asking relevant questions will capture the attention you are wanting. Encouraging your audience to ask questions by adding a personal twist to your posts will keep the comments and discussions coming. 4. Feedback Does Not Hurt If there is one true thing about Facebook and other social media platforms, it is that people just love sharing their opinions. If your Facebook audience loves to give feedback and make their opinions heard, who are you to stop them? One tip is to post two different photos that you plan to use for a promotional event. Post these photos side by side and ask your Facebook followers which one they like best. In addition, encourage them to share the post to their friends to get more involvement. Ask them for feedback about a recently launched product line. Ask them what they did and did not like about it. Ask them if they would recommend the product to friends; and if not, why. Feedback is your audience getting involved.
