processing parts in our brain activated, but our
brain tries to experience the events as well,
therefore making it more memorable than just
stating stats or facts.

Become an expert at SHOWING your products
instead of PROMOTING them. Show your fans
real results, how you use your products, happy
fans experiencing what you offer. Add value for
your readers in each post (even if it’s just giving
them some eye candy).
Be a show-er

Schedule your content
One mistake businesses make on Facebook is heavily posting content
for a few weeks, then disappearing for a few weeks. That’s like going
to the gym for a week, taking a month off and wondering why you

weeks. You’ll never reach your goals with that kind of inconsistency.

If you don’t have a proper Facebook cover photo

impression, post with your fans in mind, not
strictly promotional, it’s about them, not you.
