WHY ADD IMAGES TO YOUR FACEBOOK BUSINESS PAGE?
It has been noted in marketing circles that people tend to view businesses as more trustworthy when they see images on business social media pages. Some tips:
- Profile photo: Use a simple visual representation of your business, such as a logo. Use a square image.
- Cover photo or video: Show a recognisable part of your business that will attract people. Use a rectangle, landscape image.
ENCOURAGE PEOPLE TO FOLLOW YOUR PAGE:
Remind new and existing customers why they should follow your Page. You might post regular updates, new products or services, easy communication and exclusive offers.
People who follow or like your Page are more likely to see your content in their Feed, which helps them remember you. This creates exposure for your brand.
