Using Storytelling to Sell Your Deal

Big Sale March 2015 1

How to optimize your Facebook posts has been on the top of our minds lately. So we’re passing along some tips for how to post your deals without Facebook penalizing your Business Page for too many promotional posts. And we know that this will work… because the advice came right from Facebook!

The key to not pushing a promotion is to tell a story instead.

While you may be inclined to use phrases like “BUY NOW” or “BIG DISCOUNTS,” try using more subtle language (without all caps). Keep in mind that your Facebook followers sift through posts hoping to find a story that compels them, not to be sold on what may be a great deal. Luckily, you can accomplish both objectives: keeping customers informed and creating posts that interest them.

Let’s turn some of your deals into stories!
