If you operate a business, you will know \u2013 or you should know \u2013 that social media<\/a> is a fantastic way to do at least some of your marketing. Or rather, it can be when you do it right. However, even when you think you\u2019re doing all the things you\u2019re meant to be doing, there might be times when your reach starts to drop, or perhaps it was never that high, to begin with. This can be problematic when you want to use social media, and specifically, Facebook, to find new customers and remind former ones that you still exist.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re having trouble with your Facebook reach and you are sure there is more you can do, the answer is there is. There is always more you can do. The only issue is working out what those things are. Understanding why your Facebook reach is so low is a great start; once you know the problems, you can move towards fixing them. Here are some reasons it might be happening.<\/p>\n

You Don\u2019t Focus Enough On Engagement<\/h2>\n

Posting once a day might be great in terms of how many people start to see your information, but it\u2019s not enough. You also need to ensure you are engaging enough with the people who are seeing what you\u2019re posting. If you simply \u2018post and run\u2019 and never answer questions, look for feedback, or comment on what other people are saying, you\u2019ll never find the reach you\u2019re looking for, no matter what the algorithms say should be happening.<\/p>\n

The more you engage with your customers, the further reach you\u2019ll have because you\u2019ll be shared more and seen in more newsfeeds, even if it\u2019s as a byproduct of someone commenting on a post of yours. All of this is going to help raise awareness and increase your visibility.<\/p>\n

Some of the best posts to encourage more engagement are giveaways and competitions. Have a Macys coupon<\/a> as a prize and ask people to share your post or comment on something funny, for example. Make sure you always pick a winner, or people will soon stop bothering to join in.<\/p>\n

The Rate At Which You Post<\/h3>\n

Did you know that the rate you post on Facebook really does have a big impact on your reach? It\u2019s true, and it\u2019s all to do with algorithms<\/a> which means that if you don\u2019t post enough or post too often (this latter idea is the one that surprises business owners the most), Facebook will stop showing what you post to post your followers. This will have a negative impact on your reach and, therefore, on your sales and visibility.<\/p>\n

There are some basic figures to keep in your mind that will help you get the balance just right. If you are using Facebook to publicize your brand<\/a>, then you should aim to post just once a day. This might not seem like much, but in the eyes of Facebook, it\u2019s ideal, and that\u2019s what you need to think about. At the end of each month, create a Facebook upload spreadsheet<\/a> detailing what you will post about every day, so you are prepared and won\u2019t spend hours trying to think of one post. You can even post them all at once but schedule them, so only one is seen per day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
