Find an audience<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finding your audience might take some time, but the faster you can narrow your <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sotrender.com\/blog\/2020\/06\/get-to-know-target-audience\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">target audience<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the faster your posts will start seeing higher conversion rates.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first way to make sure you find your audience is making sure you use a voice or tone that fits with the audience you\u2019re targeting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are selling computer hardware and software, you might be able to write a bit more technical and formal, whereas if you\u2019re selling clothing, you still want some specifications and details across, but you might be better off with a lighter tone.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also, check your ads and posts for engagement and click-through rates so you can focus on ads and posts that did the best and copy their success.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re still trying to reach out to an audience, you could make use of hashtags.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes! Hashtags are a thing on Facebook, although not as widely used, they work the same as on Instagram. Adding a relevant, but high-rated hashtag to your post will allow more people to see it when they search for your hashtag. If you\u2019re not sure what hashtag to use, you can easily find a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/shanebarker.com\/blog\/hashtag-generator-tools\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">hashtag generator<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to help you.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>3. Consider boosting your posts<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Facebook offers a way to boost posts so that a much larger audience is reached, as well as users who might have high engagement.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Boosts can vary in quality, depending on the settings you choose, how long you want it boosted, and how much you pay for the boost.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Boosting a post for $50, running for seven days, should get around 3000 people looking at your post. Whether they engage with it, is another story.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The best way to boost the right post is by testing. After you\u2019ve boosted a few posts, look at which boosted posts got the most engagement and try to create a formula with it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-45707\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sotrender.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Facebook-boost-price.png\" alt=\"Facebook boost price\" width=\"1920\" height=\"803\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sotrender.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Facebook-boost-price.png 1920w, https:\/\/www.sotrender.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Facebook-boost-price-475x199.png 475w, https:\/\/www.sotrender.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Facebook-boost-price-768x321.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>4. Boost your ads<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The best part about boosting though is boosting an ad. But before you can do that, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sotrender.com\/blog\/2022\/02\/how-to-run-facebook-ads\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">you need to know how to post an ad first.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A well-written ad should get some engagement and hopefully drive traffic down your sales funnel, but imagine if you could get that ad out to a wider audience, while still targeting an audience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Boosting your initial ad should help get it some engagement during the first few days, which should help drive up organic traffic towards it as well.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019d like to do a cheap test, you could create two ads, both advertising the same thing, and give them a boost each. Nothing too expensive, around $50.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From there, you should get enough data to compare the two advertisements and how well they performed. If one ad had a lot more impressions and engagement, then you can use that same ad again as a template on Facebook for any old ads that aren\u2019t doing well, or new ones.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><!--HubSpot Call-to-Action Code --><span id=\"hs-cta-wrapper-611cc1e5-7857-48c3-87a0-6d13b7cd9195\" class=\"hs-cta-wrapper\"><span id=\"hs-cta-611cc1e5-7857-48c3-87a0-6d13b7cd9195\" class=\"hs-cta-node hs-cta-611cc1e5-7857-48c3-87a0-6d13b7cd9195\"><!-- [if lte IE 8]><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<div id=\"hs-cta-ie-element\"><\/div>\n\n\n<![endif]--><a href=\"https:\/\/cta-redirect.hubspot.com\/cta\/redirect\/3842881\/611cc1e5-7857-48c3-87a0-6d13b7cd9195\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"hs-cta-img-611cc1e5-7857-48c3-87a0-6d13b7cd9195\" class=\"hs-cta-img aligncenter\" style=\"border-width: 0px;\" src=\"https:\/\/no-cache.hubspot.com\/cta\/default\/3842881\/611cc1e5-7857-48c3-87a0-6d13b7cd9195.png\" alt=\"Analyze your ads in Sotrender\" \/><\/a><\/span><script charset=\"utf-8\" src=\"https:\/\/js.hscta.net\/cta\/current.js\"><\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\"> hbspt.cta.load(3842881, '611cc1e5-7857-48c3-87a0-6d13b7cd9195', {\"useNewLoader\":\"true\",\"region\":\"na1\"}); <\/script><\/span><!-- end HubSpot Call-to-Action Code --><\/p>\n<h2>5. Write engaging advertisements<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sotrender.com\/blog\/2022\/04\/17-best-practices-facebook-ad-designs\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Have trouble writing a good advertisement for Facebook?<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Writing an advertisement is easier said than done. Anyone can write the information and price down, but are you actually selling it?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whilst writing an advertisement you need to sell the idea of your product to the user, not the actual product.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This means you need to use powerful words and a great call to action that gets the user over the finish line.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Entice the reader and make them feel like they truly need whatever you\u2019re selling them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can pay for an ad and boost it as much as you want, but if your ad isn\u2019t well written and presented no one is buying it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>6. Post with a small budget in mind<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re on a tight budget as a small business already, you might be thinking that it\u2019s a waste of time to even have a budget for something like Facebook marketing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It only causes more harm than good when you don\u2019t plan your Facebook ads and boosts your budget.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Facebook has plenty of great tools as well like its A\/B testing software to help you get the most out of your ad spending.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s important to set a budget so that you can effectively maximize your ad reach within the means of your budget. When trying to maximize your ad spending, look at things like the time of day you\u2019re posting, the images you\u2019re using, and what the content is about.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>7. Structure your pixels strategically<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pixel is a piece of code that you can use on your website to help collect valuable data about the users on your website.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pixel can measure engagement, help you optimize the website, as well as gauge and identify an audience that will be interested in your ads.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pixel can help you target visitors who have similar interests and online habits that your current followers and customers. This sort of targeting will help you drive engagement and new leads much better than without.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-45709 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sotrender.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/FB-Pixel.png\" alt=\"facebook pixel\" width=\"1920\" height=\"902\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sotrender.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/FB-Pixel.png 1920w, https:\/\/www.sotrender.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/FB-Pixel-475x223.png 475w, https:\/\/www.sotrender.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/FB-Pixel-768x361.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>8. Be strategic about your group name<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the easiest, yet most important Facebook marketing tips is getting the name of your Facebook group right.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Creating a group name can be difficult. If you choose something too obscure, people won\u2019t find it. Instead, you should choose a name that people are likely to be searching on Facebook already. This increases the chance of people organically finding your group and possibly joining it.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>9. Create a Facebook group<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Creating a Facebook group and growing it by focusing on your customer\u2019s interests is important. Not only is a Facebook group a great way to keep your customers in the loop on all new news from your business, but it is also a community of sorts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The larger and more tight-knit your community becomes, the more likely they are to trust you, your brand, and your products or services. They\u2019ll also be more likely to recommend your brand to other people like friends and family. They might even invite them to your Facebook group.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The biggest issue with a Facebook group is starting it, and getting people to join at first. You\u2019ll have to think of ways to reward your customers for following your page. You could offer promotions that are only posted on the Facebook group as a reward and a way to get more people to join your group.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another recommendation is not to forget to set\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.groupboss.io\/how-to-set-question-in-facebook-group-from-pc-and-mobile\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Facebook group membership questions<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in order to screen the new members and build the community with like-minded people, while reducing spam posts and messages.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>10. Follow the lead<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Blending in, within a marketing context, doesn\u2019t mean being blind, or just going with the flow. Instead, blending in, within a marketing context, means following trends, being unique, and trying to be creative.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The internet is littered with unique, creative, and out-of-the-box memes, ads, and videos. Large companies like PepsiCo and even Specsavers have made some funny and creative ads.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-45713 \" src=\"https:\/\/www.sotrender.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Specsavers-campaign.jpg\" alt=\"Specsavers campaign\" width=\"401\" height=\"567\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sotrender.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Specsavers-campaign.jpg 1131w, https:\/\/www.sotrender.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Specsavers-campaign-475x672.jpg 475w, https:\/\/www.sotrender.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Specsavers-campaign-768x1086.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 401px) 100vw, 401px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Their \u201cshould\u2019ve gone to Specsavers\u201d campaign is funny, short, and to the point. Their video advertisements can be found everywhere, including on Facebook.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ads should capture the spirit of the brand, whilst giving the audience enough information to know what you\u2019re selling and why the audience needs your product.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Capturing a feeling of nostalgia is another great way to tug on the audience\u2019s heartstrings.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>11. Optimize your profile page<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your profile page should be easy to read, all information about your business should be available, as well as your contact info and if you have a physical store, an up-to-date address. Create a great-looking cover photo and banner as well.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The profile picture is usually the company logo, but the banner can be ever-changing. Use the banner as a way to promote new products, ads, or other interesting things related to your business.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you\u2019ve gained some followers, it\u2019s important to link your website to your Facebook page as well.

Post Facebook stories regularly<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Posting 100 posts a day won\u2019t only annoy your followers, but will also create an information overload on your Facebook page.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instead, use Facebook stories for less important posts and videos.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Facebook stories are much less intrusive, but also feel casual, so don\u2019t post anything important on there.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Facebook stories can be used to create fun polls, video posts about your day, or links that might interest your audience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Essentially, Facebook stories can be used to engage with your audience throughout the day, without being serious or promotional at all.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-45711 \" src=\"https:\/\/www.sotrender.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Local-restuarant-FB-story.jpg\" alt=\"Local restaurant FB story\" width=\"301\" height=\"635\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sotrender.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Local-restuarant-FB-story.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/www.sotrender.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Local-restuarant-FB-story-475x1003.jpg 475w, https:\/\/www.sotrender.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Local-restuarant-FB-story-768x1621.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sotrender.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Local-restuarant-FB-story-947x2000.jpg 947w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 301px) 100vw, 301px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here is a Facebook story from a local restaurant, showing how one of their dishes is put together.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>13. Use testimonials<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another excellent Facebook marketing tip is testimonials.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Testimonials and reviews, which can both be utilized on Facebook, offer you the chance to show other customers your value, and why your current customers appreciate your brand.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Testimonials are a sort-of word of mouth that adds value to your brand, as well as shows that your brand can be trusted.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.verizon.com\/business\/small-business-essentials\/resources\/we-both-know-youre-great-whatever-youre-selling-is\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Verizon<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, word-of-mouth marketing is the primary factor of 20% &#8211; 50% of sales.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Testimonials and word of mouth are especially important when your business is just starting. A bad reputation from the get-go means your business is dead before it even started.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-45705\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sotrender.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Corner-Bistro-Word-of-Mouth.png\" alt=\"facebook Word of Mouth\" width=\"1920\" height=\"896\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sotrender.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Corner-Bistro-Word-of-Mouth.png 1920w, https:\/\/www.sotrender.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Corner-Bistro-Word-of-Mouth-475x222.png 475w, https:\/\/www.sotrender.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Corner-Bistro-Word-of-Mouth-768x358.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is a local Bistro\u2019s Facebook page, with reviews from customers. The review page acts as testimonials from customers who have visited your shop or bought your product.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>14. Use Facebook&#8217;s product catalog ads<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Facebook has a product catalog option on the Commerce Manager. Here you can create plenty of catalogs for the things you are selling.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Catalogs can be managed easily. Things like the name of the catalog, images in it, the description, and the prices. Don\u2019t worry that things are set in stone after creating a catalog, you can change anything at any time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you want, you can also select certain items or catalogs to feature in your ads.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure to add your language and country info, this will help Facebook correct the data for users in other countries, so the product prices and information is correct.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Catalogs make it easier for users to find what they\u2019re looking for, as well as give your page a more professional feel, which helps build trust.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>15. Target your audience<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It might sound counterintuitive, but reducing your audience has plenty of benefits and should be a goal for any business.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sure, casting a wide net at the start of your funnel is a good idea, but you should quickly weed out the time-wasters from the genuinely interested.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The faster and more effectively you do that, the faster you\u2019ll end up with truly interested customers who are willing to pay for your product. These targeted users will have a much higher conversion rate than those who aren\u2019t.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Small businesses with lower budgets shouldn\u2019t be wasting money on testing ads too much, every cent spent on advertising should yield results.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is why it\u2019s important to get the right audience, even if it means fewer people seeing the ad.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>16. Post with intent<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Posting for the sake of posting is a horrible idea! If your posts contain no information or something interesting for your audience, they will eventually get bored, stop reading your posts, or even stop following your brand completely.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The best practice when posting content is to relate to your audience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ask yourself whether what you\u2019re posting will bring any sort of value to your followers\u2019 day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the answer is no, then you should rethink what you\u2019re posting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You should also make sure if you are trying to sell something on your post, that you add a call to action. There should be something to entice your followers to go through with the purchase. Remember to add your website\u2019s link, or possibly an incentive landing page that is set up for conversion.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>17. Create a private community page<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Similar to starting a Facebook group, but this time we\u2019re keeping things private.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Setting your page to private and invite-only creates a sense of exclusivity. This exclusivity will make your customers feel special and like they are part of the business.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019ve got a physical shop, you can invite regulars to the page, where you could post specials and promotions first before other customers know.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This could entice them to join your page, where you could post the promos, as well as ads and website links.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>18. Don&#8217;t post without a content calendar<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Content calendars are standard practice in marketing teams and content creators. It\u2019s beneficial when working in larger groups since a content calendar allows people to track what needs to be done and what they should be working on at all times.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your marketing team is going to get anything done by their deadlines, you should be using a content calendar.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are plenty of excellent apps that you can use to schedule your calendar with employees and colleagues.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>19. Go Live on Facebook<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Going Live on Facebook is still an underrated marketing tool that should be reconsidered by businesses. When it comes to Facebook marketing tips, keep this one in your back pocket at all times.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Just look how well TikTok stars can sell products through live streams and videos.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s a great way to connect with your audience, possibly showcase some products or services and answer questions followers have.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not only are you advertising your stuff for free, but you\u2019re getting a chance to show the audience who you are, what the brand is and stands for, and what you\u2019re selling.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Going live on Facebook is criminally undervalued by marketing teams, but it should start taking off in the next few years, which is why now is a great time to start!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>20. Don&#8217;t obsess over vanity metrics<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It can be easy to fall trap of vanity metrics like the number of likes your post got or how many people commented on it. These aren\u2019t that important for marketing on Facebook.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With a small budget, a company cannot afford to have things like this bother them. A limited marketing budget should push your team to be more creative and use your resources to their fullest.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure to focus on things that count: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.clicdata.com\/blog\/vanity-vs-actionable-metrics-marketing\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">actionable metrics<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, like post engagement and how many users, clicked through the ad, and then how many went through all the way to purchase the product.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Likes and comments aren\u2019t usually related to these important factors, so don\u2019t worry too much.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><!--HubSpot Call-to-Action Code --><span id=\"hs-cta-wrapper-8ca28bdc-765d-4c32-8d16-b74fcc831d7a\" class=\"hs-cta-wrapper\"><span id=\"hs-cta-8ca28bdc-765d-4c32-8d16-b74fcc831d7a\" class=\"hs-cta-node hs-cta-8ca28bdc-765d-4c32-8d16-b74fcc831d7a\"><!-- [if lte IE 8]><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<div id=\"hs-cta-ie-element\"><\/div>\n\n\n<![endif]--><a href=\"https:\/\/cta-redirect.hubspot.com\/cta\/redirect\/3842881\/8ca28bdc-765d-4c32-8d16-b74fcc831d7a\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"hs-cta-img-8ca28bdc-765d-4c32-8d16-b74fcc831d7a\" class=\"hs-cta-img aligncenter\" style=\"border-width: 0px;\" src=\"https:\/\/no-cache.hubspot.com\/cta\/default\/3842881\/8ca28bdc-765d-4c32-8d16-b74fcc831d7a.png\" alt=\"Start analyzing your Facebook performance\" \/><\/a><\/span><script charset=\"utf-8\" src=\"https:\/\/js.hscta.net\/cta\/current.js\"><\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\"> hbspt.cta.load(3842881, '8ca28bdc-765d-4c32-8d16-b74fcc831d7a', {\"useNewLoader\":\"true\",\"region\":\"na1\"}); <\/script><\/span><!-- end HubSpot Call-to-Action Code --><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Start using these Facebook marketing tips today!<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you follow these 20 Facebook marketing tips, you\u2019ll be on your way to getting more followers and converting them on Facebook.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don\u2019t miss out on the nearly three billion users out of fear.
