2. 2. Engage to your audience

Being present is not enough to succeed. You need to actually be active and interact with you current and potential customers. Remember, it is not just to create content without previous plan. Content Creation is an essential strategy for community growth.

Also, it is very helpful to add activities and deals to keep your audience alert to most of your post.

3. 3. Create paid campaigns

If you are having troubles attracting users organically, try using Facebook ads. Promoted Facebook posts look like regular posts, but are highly targeted and can attract more people or can help you know your current audience.

Facebook’s tools are very effective and can easily target specific audiences. You can target users who like your page or target them by location, age, gender, and interests. Because Facebook collects user data, it can target your ads to users who are most likely to be interested in your products or services.

The platform also has analytical tools to help you understand which ads can generate interest and sales.

Facebook ads are a great way to attract more people. With the help of data decision-making, you can quickly display your Facebook page directly in front of your target audience.

4. 4. Create a Facebook group.

Building a community around your product, service, or brand can be a great way to connect with customers one-on-one. These groups can be directly related to your business, can be adjacent to your business, or can help organize people related to your business. For example, a marketing agency may want to create a Facebook group centered on answering small business marketing questions, or a female-owned company may want to create a group designed to share content with other female founders.

5. 5. Use all Facebook features, not just Pages.

New Facebook features will be launched regularly. Starting in 2020, consider using the following tools to promote your business development:

Lives: Live broadcast and interact with the audience in real time. Your followers will receive a notification that you will be online and available to watch. The recording can be played back so that followers can watch it later when they are not available. You can interview guests, demonstrate how the product is used, or show off activities you might participate in.

Videos: Video consumption, especially mobile video consumption, is on the rise. Use it to display video content in front of audience. With 85% of businesses using video content as a marketing tool, you are not only catching up with the trend, but also using a growing number of on-demand media.

Stories: Use the story function to publish content that will be displayed in user feeds for 24 hours. (The story will expire after 24 hours.) This tool is very useful and can help you expand the organic coverage of your business. With the continuous development of the platform, it becomes more and more difficult to achieve this on Facebook.
