FIVE Ways to Increase Your Facebook Audience TODAY!
1. Newsletter Links Every newsletter must have at least one Facebook link. If you have an e-newsletter, add in as many links as you can that lead back to your Facebook page. “Click here for pictures of our JV Football Championship!” If you have a physical newsletter, you can still entice parents to go to the page. “Go to our Facebook page to see the adorable pictures of the Pre- K kids dressed as their favorite saints!” 11
2. Enlist Your Parents Invite your parents to post OFTEN. Be intentional and honest. Tell them straight out, “if you love this school, we need to hear about it on Facebook!” Ask them to post their feelings and tag their friends. Pictures are even better! 12
3a. “Sharing” Contest: Faith Encourage your audience to share. These pictures tell our story and spread the faith. Remind them: Every Share is a Prayer! 13
3b. “Sharing” Contest: Fun Consider a door decorating contest. The classroom door that gets the most shares wins a pizza party! 14
4. Throwback Thursday Your alumni will find you. Post some old photos, tag your current Legacy (alumni) parents, and encourage them to tag their friends. Sit back and watch the new audience members pour in! 15
5. Teacher Birthdays This is a great way to generate meaningful comments. Ask your users to post their favorite memories of this teacher and to share this post with any friends who might remember him. 16
