Cover Photo
As we mentioned previously, 100% of people view your cover photo. It is taking up the prime real-estate on your page, make the most of it and remember that the cover photo is the first impression people will have of your brand. Utilize the cover photo to give fans a glimpse of the culture and essence of your brand.
Profile Picture
Since the profile picture is nestled inside the cover photo, visitors to your page will also view this before any other content on your page. Leave the bold and detailed images for the cover photo and stick to your company logo in this space. Since the profile picture accompanies posts from your brand account, the logo will visually remind people who you are.
Facebook Insights
Insights provide valuable analytics for your brand page, and should be leveraged to your advantage. The insight that is provided can give reassurance to your content strategy.
Highlighting/Pinning Posts
The
ability to highlight and pin posts to the top is an invaluable tool for
marketers. With highlighting, the highlighted post spans the width of
both columns – this would be a great space to point out a specific post
you want visitors to interact with, think photos or videos. Maybe you
just put in an amazing new pool, or you offer a new excursion.Pinning a post to the top on the other hand, helps extend the life of a post and keeps said post in the top spot for a week (Note: you can only pin one post at a time). This could be the spot to highlight a recent contest winner, or blog post.
Use images in your posts
Posts with images grab more attention than those lacking an image. Since they generally garner more likes and engage visitors more, you should consider making images a present in your posts if they aren’t already. Using images can be as easy as showing off a picture of food from your on-site restaurant or room-service. After all, everyone loves to look at pictures of appetizing and well plated food.
Highlight Fans
The new brand pages turned communication into a one-way street from you – if fans are interacting and posting on your page, or mention you it’s minimized on your timeline. Combat this by highlighting fans on your timeline if you see they’ve posted a picture or video and tagged you in it. This also could be where you grab photos from Facebook or even Pinterest. It’s a great way to integrate social strategies and engage fans on both platforms – you can highlight guest photos on Facebook through a post or Pinterest through a board.
Milestones
If you haven’t already, now would be the perfect time to add in your company milestones, like when you first opened your doors to guests. Filling in your milestones will help with telling the story of your brand. If you run a historic hotel, this would be a great spot to add in the details or fun facts (maybe a president frequented your location). Also, milestones can be used to highlight awards your hotel, restaurant or destination may have won. There are so many great uses for this tool, curious and engaged fans will enjoy any and all information you want to provide.
New Ad Tools
Facebook has provided new advertising tools for you to take advantage of. Reach generator is a tool that puts your content in front of fans that may not have seen it originally for greater reach (who would have thought from the name?). Additionally, I’m sure that you’ve seen ads when you log out. These ads are more viable for large corporations (ex. Ford, Coca-Cola, etc.). Unless you’ve already been heavily advertising on Facebook with success, these tools aren’t going to be something you want to consider investing in, since the ROI won’t balance out.
