The New Facebook Newsfeed, How Will It Affect Pages & What Your Business Can Do About It. I'm sure by now, you've all heard the buzz on Social Media about the BIG Facebook Newsfeed changes coming in 2018. Here is the post from Mr. Zuckerberg himself, explaining his vision for Facebook this year.
FACEBOOK NEWSFEED VISION Basically what Mr. Zuckerberg is saying is that Facebook is going to start catering your newsfeeds to mostly show post from your family and friends and that's a good thing if you love using Facebook on a personal level. But for businesses that use Facebook for marketing and advertising purposes, it's not such good news. As we have seen over the years, changes with the Facebook Algorithm Formula has caused Page Post Reach to be drastically reduced on the organic level and the only way to really ensure that your post reaches the masses is to create exceptional, mind blowing content, paid advertising or both. Now, from what I can tell, even with paid advertising, post reach is still going to be very low since post from Business Pages, Advertisers, Brands and Media is no longer the focus and goal for Facebook. Do I think you should ditch Facebook Marketing? NO WAY. Why? Facebook is still the #1 Social Media Marketing platform in the World and there are still ways to reach the masses using Facebook but what this really means to you is that you are now going to have to adapt to the new Facebook changes and shift your mindset on different ways to market your business on Facebook. Below is some suggestions I think will help you out with that.
In conclusion, don't rule out Facebook just yet. I think what Mr. Zuckerber is trying to do is a good thing and I know that they have some Big Plans for Facebook overall. Try my suggestions, I'm pretty sure you will see that there are ways to still increase audience engagement and bring awareness to your brand without just relying on Facebook.

1. Social Media should never be used to sell your product or service. 2. Once you start social media, it becomes a commitment. 3. If you are not using your analytics, why even be on social media. 4.
