Episode 51: Managing a Facebook Group for Your Business

Episode 51: Managing a Facebook Group for Your Business

Have you ever considered running a Facebook group for your business? Mindy breaks it all down for you today: why it is a great idea, who you can serve and how it can benefit your business, and how running a group can position you (or train you!) to step out as a leader in your online community. Let’s be real: Everyone is on Facebook – and that’s not changing anytime soon – so why not capitalize on the mindless scrolling you do every day? Let’s get to it, Rockstars!

Key Takeaways:

  • Starting a Facebook group can position you as a Leader in your community.
  • Facebook groups can be business to business or business to client, depending on your biz and your niche.
  • Posting “conversation starters” is a great way to keep your group engaged and active.
  • Recruit loyal group members as group admins to lighten the load of the workflow. Or you can hire a VA (virtual assistant) for this as well.
  • Respond to all the posts! It’s one of the primary struggles of group owners, but also your biggest responsibility as a group owner.
