Then you must have a Facebook page to grow it. Where you will tell your audience about your services and product. This is the only way you can communicate & retain your customers.

Once your account is created, make sure you are updating essential business information on your page and using brand keywords, which make it look professional and help customers know they found the right business page.

Your business hours, location and logos are in sync with other marketing material otherwise it can create confusion for the customer.

Nowadays people want to connect to a brand more on the personal level. So your goal should be to create a community where people can learn, engage and share your brand. Don't be too corporate and sales, otherwise, they will find you boring and disconnect.

Think before posting, Are you posting quality content or are you posting content for the sake of numbers? Prefer quality over quantity. The main reason for fans to unlike a brand’s page is because they post uninteresting and too much content. So make sure your content is interesting, informative and shareable because when people engage with quality content,  then Facebook comes to know that your content is more valuable and will be seen more likely by more people on Facebook

If you are busy and don't have much time to post on the page then need not to worry, Facebook provides the feature where you just need to schedule your post by setting the date and time and your post will be automatically republished on that Time & Date.

Keep one thing in your mind choose the correct time to share your content, Before posting you need to find the correct time when your targeted audience will be more active.

Don't forget to reply and comment on customers' questions and posts. As fast you will reply to their question and messages that much Facebook finds you active and can help to boost your post.

So keep updating quality content and interact with your customers with a positive attitude.

  • Facebook Games:-

Do you want to increase the visibility of your Facebook page posts?

Looking for a fresh idea to create engagement on your Facebook page?

By moderating page and interaction with the customer is still not making that fun and you may be missing out on getting to know your fans on a deeper level.

Then the good news is that by initiating simple social games on your page’s timeline gives your page a boost. This can help you in encourage comments, shares, and likes, and build a sense of community around your brand. Plus point is …. they are also a lot of fun for you and your fans and brings them back to your page over and over again, giving them more opportunities to get to know you and your brand.

Social games are the best way as compare to Facebook ads because it improves your visibility without spending lots of money.

Creating engagement for your Facebook page need not be time-intensive, complicated or cost you a lot of money.

  • Facebook Events:- 

Facebook game is not worth as much you were expecting?

Don't worry, We have another way I meant by “ Facebook Events”

Facebook events are the perfect way to get users' attention and keep it. Most of the people having their Facebook events connected to their smartphones with the help of Facebook's calendar connection. By this, you can keep long your audience without doing the legwork.

Creating a great Facebook event is not enough. You need to add more effort like how to plan coordinate and spread awareness of your brand.

Here I am sharing some tips and tricks on how your brand can get the most out Facebook events and get people to attend.

  1. First and most, your Facebook event should have an Official name. Let's take the example of a Food restaurant, For this use some interesting name like “ Frappy Hour” at “Name of your restaurant.” You also can use “Open House”, “Food Truck Night”.Good naming events not only help in stand out events it helps people to remember to tell their friends.
  2. Now let's come up with the description, it is where you will give detail of your events such as pricing, special guest and schedule, exact location.
  3. You have done with the detail of the event now you need to add a good eye-catching and relevant photo for the event. Sometimes the common issue brand face while scheduling an event is what size photo to use. You need an image that will look great when customization is done. Facebook recommends using the dimensions 1920 X 1080 pixel image or a 16:9 aspect ratio.
  4. The next step is keywords for tags, during event creation Facebook will ask you to add keywords, for that you need to add some relevant keywords in the tag section but keep brand keywords in the limit. Adding tags allow people to find a similar event they are looking for.
  5. After done all, now you are looking for the way how you will let the people know about the event. Most of people start with their inner circle but that's not enough. Instead of waiting. You can run Facebook ads for promoting the event. By this, you can boost your ads as you are done before your posts. Don't forget to tell about the event outside the Facebook like you can share events detail on other social media.
  • Facebook Campaigns:-

Still not able to increase your company’s brand awareness and not getting much traffic?

Don't worry I am here to tell you. Now its time to try the new brand awareness ad campaigns on Facebook.

By using these you can evaluate how much people more likely to watch and recall your ad and optimize the campaign as well. The main goal of brand awareness adds to recall your targeted audience, it won't bring sales immediately.

The most interesting thing is that you can even have more control over the frequency and can choose not to display the ads to the same person for anything from 1 to 90 days.

By doing this you can run your ad much longer time without overwhelming.

You also have the option of adding to your direct response campaigns (ex. website clicks, website conversions, mobile app installs and all.

I can surely say that these campaigns not even beneficial to Big brands but for small businesses.
