Build Your Tribe: How to Get Your Stuff Seen In the Newsfeed with advanced techniques guaranteed to boost engagement

Facebook newsfeedIn this episode, I share some of my best tips for using Facebook to grow your business.

In 2012, I picked up my toys and stormed off the Facebook playground, and off to Instagram I went. I was frustrated that I was no longer getting any engagement from my fans on Facebook, and my following wasn’t growing or helping to grow my business either.

So I proclaimed Facebook as dead and shifted my focus to Instagram. I did not want to figure out ads or have to pay for engagement. But after learning from experts in the industry, I soon realized that Facebook was NOT dead, and I needed to give it another look. Within just a few months or experimenting with new practices and ridiculously cheap ads, my engagement and growth has skyrocketed! Let me share with you what I’ve learned!

  • Organic Reach = the number of people who see your post in their newsfeed; this does not track whether or not they’ve read it; this means they saw it in their newsfeed, and you did not pay for it
  • Engagement = the number of ikes, shares, comments, and comments on other people’s comments under your posts
  • You are 65% more likely to get engagement when you ask fans to like/share your posts
  • Post something people have a strong opinion about, spark a debate (see examples in links below)
