Facebook Marketing, the Inbound Way
Before we dive in, let’s get one thing out of the way. There are many ways to approach marketing on Facebook, but we’ll stick to the one we love most: inbound.
An inbound strategy is about being helpful and relatable to your audience. It involves understanding the goals of your customer and partnering with them to overcome challenges. One of the best ways to do this is to be available where they already spend their time — that means you need to be present on Facebook.
Facebook’s tools cater to the business that wants to form an authentic relationship with their audience. It allows marketers to create and distribute quality content that’s helpful for users. And it allows sales and customer services reps to connect with consumers interested in a brand.
It’s not about being spammy, annoying, or deceiving.
If you’re building a Facebook Page just to check one more thing off the branding to-do list, think again. True Facebook marketing requires a consistent, long-term commitment. But we promise, the awareness and demand will be worth it.
Ready? Let’s go.
