Four Strategies for Getting More Fans and Leads From Facebook
What’s happening to “Like Gates?”
On August 7th, Facebook announced the following: “You must not incentivize people to use social plugins or to like a Page. This includes offering rewards, or gating apps or app content based on whether or not a person has liked a Page. It remains acceptable to incentivize people to login to your app, checkin at a place or enter a promotion on your app’s Page. To ensure quality connections and help businesses reach the people who matter to them, we want people to like Pages because they want to connect and hear from the business, not because of artificial incentives. We believe this update will benefit people and advertisers alike.” Further clarified by Facebook “…like-gating is now prohibited by policy. Apps created from today onwards won't get the 'liked' boolean in the signed_request object on pages, and in 90 days time, for existing apps, this value will always be set to true.”
Strategy 1: Write Great Content
• Content is the backbone of your Facebook strategy
• Generates shares and visibility inside and outside your fanbase
• The first place consumers go when they log in is to Newsfeed
• Need to be part of the conversation
• Use a few tricks to increase exposure
• Ask questions (gets more responses) • Use relevant #hashtags • Mention other brands/businesses
• Promote your posts to get even more exposure
Strategy 2: Run a Social Contest
• Social “event” that creates a lot of buzz
• Convert more fans to leads (sweepstakes/giveaway converts as high as 70%)
• Turns your fans into a marketing force
• You can still ask for a “like!” • Collect high quality email leads
