Event description

Although most people use Facebook as a way to share personal news with friends, it can also be very effective in promoting businesses, books, services offered, etc. That’s what I’m doing with my new book “A Fuller View, Buckminster Fuller’s Vision of Hope and Abundance for All,” and my unique strategy is working extremely well.

Since I began publicizing my book on Facebook, one of my pages (listed below) has improved its weekly reach (the number of unique people seeing content on the page during one week) by as 3,292%. The exact number of people for that week was 12,110.

Although that is my most effective FB page, my others have also done quite well even though most of the content posted on one page was the same or similar to that posted on the others.

There is a method to my FB madness, and I would like to share it with others. I’d also like to put together a group that regularly shares FB posts to increase traffic to all our sites and events.

Here are the current Facebook pages that support my books as well as my speaking presentations …

    Steven, I am very sorry not to have made your event today. The 520 was closed and the drive around wasn't a good option. I hope you repeat the event.

    Thanks to everyone for coming and sharing what you know and what you want to know so openly. Special thanks to Gregor who knows more about this than I do, so I learned even more.

    Hello all,

    it was great to see old friends and make some new ones! I was happy to share some insights, but I don't claim to know more than Steven; I just know different things.

    If you want some more Social Media help, advice, thoughts, and inspiration feel free to visit http://www.studio5creative.com/resources.html You can also find all kinds of other resources there as well. And if you get stuck or still have questions feel free to email me at gregor@studio5creative.com and I will do my best to help you out.

    You can also find Studio 5 Creative on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/studio5creative

    It looks like Steven and I will start a Facebook / Social Media support group to provide ongoing support and resources, so we will let you know how that comes along.

    It was great to meet all of you; I learned some new things, and had a lot of fun. Now go and start a conversation with someone and see where it leads you!
