Facebook Marketing Tips

All I can say is...it is about time! Facebook is about to ramp up its efforts to rid our news feeds of click bait content with changes to the feed in the coming weeks. Information that attempts to trick, misrepresent, or mislead readers should begin to disappear. I am not sure how their algorithms will be able to tell good from bad but a cleanup is definitely needed (IMHO).

I am in the middle of a $20 week long listing boost that is netting good results thus far including several new showings as a result of getting the information out via Facebook to my targeted local audience. The extra exposure is great and time will tell if the future buyer ends up coming because of the boost.

Time to get busy visiting Rainers! ;-)

PLEASE stop by the 5 Rainer Facebook Fan Pages below, LIKE their page, and leave a comment. It is always nice to reciprocate, so if you are visited, please take a minute and return LIKE those that stopped by your Facebook Fan Page.

Helping each other helps us all so please take a few minutes to share and comment via social media. As always, enjoy Rainers!

Hi Anita, I am interested to see if you snag the buyer from your boost campaign. But if you snag a buyer at all it would be worth it.

Anita, I love your title - so clever! I hope you end up generating a buyer from your boost, you'll have to report back! Facebook leads were really up for us this week, tweaked a few keywords in the ads and I've been pleased with the results. Thank you for always sharing your tips, you're such an asset for all of us who work Facebook ads!

Good morning Anita, I've heard some changes are in the works with FB, can't wait. I will be running another ad starting this Sunday, advertising on FB is money well spend.

Thank you Dorie. This is always a fun article to put together.

Agreed Debbie. I will provide more details if a buyer comes from this boost. It has happened before so we shall see.

I hope you see plenty of new activity, Ari. Thank you.

That is awesome Amanda. Perfect timing for your new group!

Just recently I started using FB ads and it's interesting to see where and how the clicks are coming.  The nice part is you can put a limit on the spending, and dial in a very select audience.

Thank you for encouraging the Ad Boosts, I was skeptical of them. How do you decide your target audience, is it strictly geographical or more involved? As per usual, I did go LIKE the Rainers below (some I had already LIKED) and I can be found at https://www.facebook.com/ThomasJNelsonRealtor/

Thomas: Some are geographical (listings and specific target audiences in a particular subdivision) and others are to a broader audience for more brand exposure, guest blog opportunities, etc.
