(at the lowest cost per entry)

FACEBOOK Marketing: Lowest Cost Per Attention1) Get to know the people who matter to your business, so you can understand what

matters to them. Learn about their locations, interests and behaviors, so you can create messages that will help your business grow.

2) Cost Per Consumer Attention (Social Media is 1000x more efficient than radio; 2000x more efficient than TV)

SPRING HILLHOMEPAGE

The Facebook Algorithm:“The more engagement a user has with a piece of content, the stronger EdgeRank believes that the users interest will be in similar content and it filters that person’s content accordingly”

“EdgeRank makes sure that a user who often likes or comments on a friends photos, but who ignores that friend’s plain status updates, will see more of that friends photos but fewer of his status updates. Every engagement, whether between friends or between users and brands, strengthens their connection and the likelihood that EdgeRank will push appropriate content from those friends and brands to the top of a user’s newsfeed.”

Entertain: Videos

1) Take video of interviews - they’re visual, personal,could tease your story, or could re-post your story without actually reposting it

2) Facebook Live - anything!!

*If you want to talk to people while they consume their entertainment - you need to BE

their entertainment*

Hashtags on FBHow many is too many?

- Posts with 1 or 2 hashtags averaged 593 interactions - Posts with 3 to 5 hashtags averaged 416 interactions - Posts with 6 to 10 hashtags averaged 307 interactions - Posts with more than 10 hashtags averaged 188 interactions

Please don’t #dothis it’s annoying and hard #toread. Put hashtags at the end. #yourwelcome #likethis

When appropriately used they can only help break through “EdgeRank” and extend your content reach.

www.datadriven.design

Hashtags on FBYou can’t go wrong by using a hashtag:

If your audience isn't socially savvy they just skip over them (unless you use too many), but by using them, someone who is deep into social may find your post as they search and scroll through hashtags.

Cross-promotion and Branding:

Hashtags will allow your pages to be easily linked and makes monitoring social conversations seamless and trackable. Moreover, you are creating a HomePage brand and feel with: #REALnewsBrentwood #REALnewsTN (always capitalizing REAL)

www.datadriven.design

In short:- Facebook cares about the user experience - not the marketers.

- Think like a user AND a journalist. Market your article.

- If no one interacts with you - no one will see your content.

www.datadriven.design

Provide Value to Readers: Beyond quality news, are you?

Entertaining (visually entertaining, posting fun content)

Educational

Interesting

Personal (engaging your readers, commenting, asking questions, tagging

readers)

Why should you post something that’s not directly about business? Because it

can’t be all about YOU - it has to keep your audience in mind and engaged.

Long form blogging within Facebook posts:

One average, it drives 3x more engagement and it’s visually cleaner.

When you copy and paste your link. - the engagement is often weaker and the aesthetic appears dated.
