- 01/18/17 03:35 PM
~ Facebook Marketing Tips ~ It was a quiet week for me on Facebook. Other than interaction in a couple of closed groups, I did not do much promoting or interacting on my biz page. While I do not recommend that as a normal week, sometimes there are more important tasks that require our attention. If we have already built a solid Facebook foundation we can pick back up quickly and not miss a beat. If you made a resolution or set goals to be more active on your Facebook biz page in 2017 are you still going strong? If you have stopped … (30 comments)

- 10/26/16 08:22 AM
~ Facebook Marketing Tips ~ Now that the weather has started to get cooler and with daylight savings time about to end it could be a great time to ramp up our Facebook marketing efforts. Consumers may have more "downtime" which could work to our benefit if we are providing a steady stream of real estate related information sprinkled in with a periodic ad or article boost. More consumer time online means more opportunities for us to get our content seen! Have you done anything special on FB this year because of Halloween? Perhaps a change of cover photo or a special promotion? … (18 comments)

- 10/19/16 08:02 AM
~ Facebook Marketing Tips ~ I have done a few $20 FB ads the past couple of months trying to find the right blend to get some of my listings more exposure. What has been working well for me is drilling down to a specific local audience, in fact, one of my FB ad listings is contracted as a result of buyers seeing the ad and following the link to see the home. It does not always work that easily but it can be a successful form of marketing, especially if you are willing to invest a little time determining what works … (30 comments)
