Free class: Engage Your People with Facebook
What's that you say?
You already have a Facebook page?
Well, here's the thing:
If your fans and their friends aren’t interacting with you -- 'liking' your updates or posting their own comments on your wall, for instance -- you effectively become invisible to them.
They simply don’t see your updates.
And isn't that why your organization's on Facebook in the first place? To hang out where your people gather, and develop your relationships?
You can't do that if they can't see you.
So we've got a a free class that can help.
The class will be recorded, so if the time's not convenient for you, you can always listen to the mp3.
- Find out how Facebook decides what your fans get to see.
- Learn the best way to get your fans and their friends' attention and enthusiasm.
- Hear why Facebook contests aren't just for arts groups with big budgets and a tech staff.
- Get jargon-free,clear answers to your most annoying Facebook questions.
P.S. Even if you can't make the class, be sure to sign up for the free recording.
