Episode 8 – Facebook and Instagram For Your Business
Share the goodness!
Hey Everyone! Welcome to another episode of the Digital Marketing Dive Podcast. I’m Seth Goldstein from Goldstein Media, with me is the self-proclaimed king of the Internet, Shawn Swaim, of Shawn Swaim Consulting.
We have a great episode for you today.
Today we’re going to talk about using Facebook and Instagram for your business.
Business Page vs. Personal Page used for Business
Reach is a major concern: Facebook put up a lot of roadblocks for organic reach for business pages. (Promoting paying for ads… hoooowwww convenient…)
Boosting posts
“Boost” vs. A Straight Up Ad
Likely a rant here… lol… I (Shawn) HATE boosted posts
Shhhh don’t tell him Seth boosted the episode 5 post.
FB and IG stories
Sponsored Posts on IG
Done in same platform as Facebook ads, however, the audience on FB is different from audience on IG, and the ad content should be treated as such
Great video from social media pro Sunny Lenarduzzi on her Instagram tricks. Some really good ideas: https://youtu.be/anPgxACGPLE
This week we’re going to try something different. Instead of our WordPress plugin picks. We’re doing general apps and sites that intrigue us.
Shawn: Workflowy – Powerful AF for helping keep Sh*t organized
Seth: Planoly – Has a free basic plan with some limitations, but a neat way to plan out your Instagram account.
