This week Facebook introduced the new online event feature so that with COVID-19 we can create online events and share them through Facebook. In this episode of Ask Linda, I walk you through how you can create an online event on your Facebook Page.
The Marketing Circle is my inner circle where Marketing is our focus.
We have a Facebook group, Marketing Courses you can take at your own pace.
We meet twice a month online for Marketing How To and Q&A sessions
Education Marketing is one of the most powerful ways to you can attract people to your business and it goes hand in hand with content marketing which is great for small businesses.
I remember those start-up days of each of our businesses fondly as the idea grew from a seed and came to life and each time we launch a new venture I am reminded what it is like to Market a Business with Little or no Budget.
Starting in business is a very exciting time, especially if it is your venture into entrepreneurship.
Along with starting your business comes costs, and while we would all love to have the marketing budget of a Fortune 500 company, sadly that is rarely the case and most of us begin to Market a Business with Little or no Budget.
Do I have to put my face out there and be the face of my business? is a question that most business owners will ask themselves and one that I get asked as a marketing and ideas strategist regularly.
The Answer is YES and let me explain WHY.
Being the face of your brand allows you to build that connection with your audience; it makes your brand more familiar, approachable, and authentic. If you are able to control your brand’s image and the narrative around your story, that puts you in an incredibly powerful position to connect and attract the right people you want to work with.
We have are great at coming up with plenty of reasons not to: your hair isn’t looking great, you’ve had a bad night, it’s a stressful time, but it is these things that connect you to your audience.
Hi Linda,
I was wanting to create an online event for my Facebook page, as my country (Denmark) has entered another lockdown. But it simply does not seem to be an option – I can only create “normal” events. On one of the other Facebook pages I am administrating there is no problem creating an online event. Do you have a guess as to what the problem is? Thanks a lot for your help,
Best wishes, Senia (from the organisation, Studerende og Sorg)
Senia Facebook can be a bit funny like that one page has a feature and the others don’t. I can’t really provide a tip other than to say maybe try using a tool like Eventbrite and adding the event that way
