~ Facebook Marketing Tips ~

The title is tongue-in-cheek so do not think I have let my modest FB success go to my head. In fact, I am always looking for new ways to improve my brand exposure and generate new prospects and you should be as well. We do it here in the Rain and on our own sites and it should be an actionable task we maximize on the social media platforms we use as well. 

When Is the "ideal" day/time to post on Facebook? According to Bit.ly blog it is the middle of the week between 1p.m. and 3p.m. Try it out & see if you agree!

Is it likely FB will pass 2 billion monthly active users later this year? According to their 2016 Q4 earnings report they are currently at 1.86B users. Facebook has been going strong for a decade+ with no signs of letting up. If anything it is getting stronger, partly because it often purchases the competition (most recent grab is Instagram). At some point this platform has to plateau but when?

PLEASE stop by the 5 Facebook Business Pages below, LIKE their page, and leave a comment. It is always nice to reciprocate, so if you are visited, please return the favor.

As always, enjoy Rainers!

A busy weekend Roy. Showed homes all day yesterday to 3 buyers and back at it in about 30 minutes for the rest of today. Busy is good!

It could make a big difference, Joan.

Anita Clark - the World's population is at 7 Billion - so FB can still grow....lol!

Did not know that between 1 PM and 3 PM is the best time to post - sounds logical when people take a midday break. Will try.

Had a revelation this week - I tried boosting post for my open house and also ran the ad - only 2 engagement from the ad (cost $19.04) and 328 from boosting the post (cost $15)! Go figure!

Anita- I don't know what any of us would do with Facebook without your weekly Facebook Friday's posts. Each year I continue to be amazed at the way in which Facebook reads or even forecasts what it is we want and tweaks the site just enough to make it so.

I just saw a report last week that talked about the best times to post on different social media platforms.  Interesting how they track this stuff.  Also, I learned that FB is going 100% video in 2021.

Praful: Sounds like you might have been too narrow with your focus on the ad.

Kathy: They have some smart programmers that is for sure.

Mick: I have not heard about the exclusivity to video in 2021. Who was the source?

A lot of trial and error, Debbie. ;-)
