How to: Make your Facebook Timeline Work Link to Facebook Page

facebook pagesIn your workday I bet you come across many Facebook profiles and pages. Awesome ones at that!

I do too…but most are missing one important thing..The link in their work history to their Facebook page. This usually goes to one of those generic suitcase company pages. Wouldn’t you rather link to your Facebook Business page? Yes? Is that what you want? No! Let’s learn how:

1st…Copy your Facebook Business Page Link

Then do these steps:

  • Go to your your FB profile
  • Go to edit your page
  • Find your work history
  • Go to your present work

Now—facebook timeline work history

Paste that Facebook page link here and ta-da!

 

 

You have your page connected to your current work! And people will find your page easily now and it will be clickable.

Isn’t this awesome???

 

Making Your Facebook Pages Timeline Work For You

New changes seem to be always in line at Facebook. Once you really understand how the changes work, they really begin to make sense!

On March 31st you will not be able to opt out of using the new design, so here are a few tips to make the best of it.

Make your Cover Art BOLD! A  picture is worth a thousand words so creating a strong cover image that connects your readers to what your brand is all about is essential. A single, powerful, bold l photograph can have a lot of impact here! BUT– it cannot have promotions, discounts or graphics that encourage people to “like” your page. Th best image size is 851 x 315 pixels, but smaller images will work also, smallest being 399 pixel wide. You can also use a free photo editor tool like Pixlr to help in the process

Square up your profile picture Instead of being longer as it is currently, it will be positioned in a square over your cover art image. It will need be at least 180 pixels square.

Put your most important applications first. With the new layout, Facebook apps are your photo albums, events and the number of people who like your page. Only the first four will display when your Facebook Page first loads but you can have 12 max.

Put a good consistent content post plan in place. This new timeline really shows your inactivity so make in minimal.

Organize create love in your posts. Highlight them by clicking on the star and pencil  includes the ability to hide items, delete items and mark items as spam.

New to Facebook Pages is the admin panel for private messages. Be on top of that monitoring. People like to chat!

RSS Feed feature is New! Use it to bring tons of new people in!

I am loving the new changes, how about you?

 

Are You Ready to Stop Wasting Time on Social Media Sites and Finally PROFIT From Your Efforts??

Sharing with you some great info from a friend of mine:

Here are some common mistakes I see people making on their social profiles and websites:

  1. You’ve been told that you want to automate everything you can and only spend 15-30 minutes a day on your social media marketing
  2. You’re using Hootsuite, or a similar platform, to update pretty much everything on all the sites your participating on
  3. You’re not mixing your business pages and posts with your personal pages and posts
  4. You’re sending more than 2-3 mass update emails to your friends or fans per month
  5. You have profiles up on many different sites but you hardly ever go on them or interact
  6. You are listening to social media experts out there who are telling you to do things a certain way but they aren’t even making money from the strategies they suggest.

Are you making any of these? If so, you may want to pay attention.

As a very successful business and marketing coach who has been on these sites pretty much since their popularity became mainstream, I teach a very different approach to social media marketing than many of the so-called experts out there.

And let me preface this by saying that my Social Media Messaging System brings in new clients for me and for almost every client who uses it every month.

 What you want to do on your social media sites and how I teach it is to treat your social sites like a real networking event. (hence the term social networking!)

You wouldn’t walk into a room full of friends or strangers at a networking event and just throw them a flyer in their face of your upcoming event or teleclass, would you?

Yet that’s what so many people are doing online – throwing info at people.

What you want to do is spark up a conversation online with someone just like you would in person at a networking event.

At a networking event you would ask them questions, find out what they do and dig a little deeper to find out if or how the two of you could connect right? (At least I hope that’s what you’d do!)

You want to do the same thing online as well….BUT that takes a ton of time right?

Yes it does. But if it gets new clients just as easy as networking – wouldn’t it make sense that you’d want to spend MORE time doing it, not less? And it’s FREE!

 The key is though to have templates and systems to make this easier and quicker to accomplish.

You need to know how to reach the number of people you really need to reach out to online however in order to make the numbers work and you to actually get a good amount of people to have a conversation with. I recommend interacting with 250 NEW potential prospects every week – YES, every week!

This is why it’s important that you have a pre-written template of what to say, a system on how to connect with that many and even delegate this initial task so that you can concentrate only on the responses when they come.
