How to Drive Engagement Organically with Facebook Marketing

7 November 2018

3 mins read

If you own a smartphone or have any mode of access to the Internet, chances are you have a Facebook account. And so do billions worldwide! Last we checked Facebook has an average of 1.45 billion active daily users. Sounds insane?

For marketers, while those numbers mean for potential, they come with a downside: everybody wants their post to be seen, and there are a lot of posts (an estimated 4:1 ratio of posts to people, in fact). If you don’t already know, organic reaches have steadily gone down through the years although Facebook’s not acknowledging it.

Why this happens isn’t just because of the metaphorical mountain that is the 4-billion-posts-per-day-on-Facebook burying your own post – it’s also due to Facebook’s Newsfeed Algorithm, which filters posts and does quality control to ‘optimise the user experience’ by showing them what’s relevant and interesting to them.

That algorithm doesn’t necessarily help the marketers struggling to get their fan-base to see their recent posts, however – and the less engagement you get the less likely Facebook will let your posts be featured on people’s News Feeds.

Sounds scary, but there are ways to outsmart artificial intelligence:

Know When to Post

Depending on your targeted audience, the demographics and psychographics of your audience are prominent factors to timing your posts perfectly.

Why? Because no one really scrolls through Facebook during office hours.

And according to Hootsuite, the best times for them to post on Facebook are 12 p.m. – 3 p.m. during the weekdays excluding Tuesdays (the slowest day for them) and 12 p.m. – 1 p.m. during the weekends.

Posting at the right times increases your chances of increasing audience engagement (likes, comments, shares and website click-throughs); so to achieve that, your Facebook Page Insights can be used to track and analyse your engagement data.

Don’t Spam, Be Realistic in Your Frequency

No one likes a pusher. Never mind an audience that scrolls through hundreds of posts every day. Depending on your followers and your content, you can post more than the recommended 1 – 3/day if:

  • You have an international following; posting at different times depending on their time zones covers more ground.
  • You have high-quality content that has variety. People are more likely to be attracted by posts that are humorous, inspirational and informative. Post at different timings with different types of content.
Utilise Facebook Video Formats

Facebook videos are an integral part of the average user’s routine to using Facebook – from tutorial videos to informational ones, we scroll through our video feed without pause; making this format as versatile as it is engaging with over 8 billion average daily views and 100 million hours devoted to videos each day.

And based on Sproutsocial’s analysis, here are some key things in creating video content on Facebook:

  • 85% of Facebook’s users watch videos with no sound; with 80% of them responding negatively towards videos with auto-play sound.
  • Captioned video ads have an increased video time of 12%
  • 20% of Facebook Videos watched are Live; with an engagement rate 3 times higher than a non-live video.
Set Your Preferred Page Audience

Specifying the location, demographics, language and interests of your intended audience on Preferred Page Audience increases the organic reach of your page. And while it’s not the end-all to all solutions, every step counts.

Create Shareable, High-quality Content with Purpose

Content is key in keeping your audience interested and engaged. Humour,

inspirational and educational posts that resonate with your audience are what

prompts them to click into your content because it’s

relevant and useful to them.

To further boost the quality and relevancy of your posts, ask yourself these questions:

  • Is it helpful to the intended audience?
  • Does it fulfil its promise (purpose)?
  • Are there interesting visuals (images, videos) unique only to my brand on the page?
  • Are there Call to Action prompts in my posts to get my audience to take the desired action? (‘Sign Up Now’, ‘Learn More’, ‘Like’, ‘Share’, et cetera)

Facebook Revolutionising Digital Marketing With AI

The digital marketing industry has seen massive changes over recent years and Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a rising factor. Because of the expansion of AI, we are able to study and identify consumer trends when crafting marketing strategies. This is vital, as an effective partnership between AI and digital marketing results in a boost for performance and revenue.

In line with the AI rave, Facebook has acquired the genius startup, GrokStyle. Yes, the social media goliath has acquired the entire team behind the savvy invention. By emerging with a one-of-a-kind invention, Grokstyle has helped multinational corporations communicate with its consumers effectively. Their point-and-search functionality earned recognition when it was added to Ikea’s mobile application, Place.

Beyond enhancing its AI inventions, the social media platform is on a roll to get new technology to contribute to their AI capabilities. Brands and companies can continually adopt new technology to always be ahead in engaging its audience while exploring and tapping into new territories for digital marketing in the near future.

To fully maximise the use of existing social media features, speak to professionals who can craft a thorough strategy just for you.

So how should I utilise AI in my marketing strategies?

AI has evolved to be beneficial to many industries, as seen by Facebook expanding on AI’s creative abilities to enhance their consumers’ experience. How about you?

In-App Purchasing To Transform Instagram Marketing

The once photo-and-video-sharing application has turned into more than just a platform for you to share your selfies or stalk your favourite brands or celebrities. Now, you can look to purchase your desired items straight off Instagram, changing Instagram marketing forever.

Last year, Instagram introduced shoppable tags, where brands could tag up to 5 products in a photo. The feature was then developed to be included in stories and videos. This allows users to access their favourite products by viewing a short description and its price with a single tap.
