Facebook Tips for WordPress, Cover Images that Convert and More: The Social Scoop 10/14/16
Greetings from the skies!
Wowee, I’m jet setting big time this month. Today is the start of many weeks on the road. It’s exciting; at the same time, I really need to *pace* myself! 🙂
First, I’m keynoting my beauty client’s official UK launch in London this weekend, then I head up to Scotland for a week with my family. I’m super excited to spend quality time with my three sisters and our dad – our first time in 15 years. Woa!
InFacebook news this week — Facebook began testing ads in Groups, its “next potential cash cow,” says Techcrunch. This nugget is eye-opening: “Facebook says it will reach maximumNews Feed ad load in mid-2017, which means it needs new revenue streams to continue its revenue growth momentum that’s been going strong for years.”
So, along with looking at monetizing Groups, there’s also Messenger ads coming… and the new standalone Events app likely has potential for ads. Plus, Facebook is currently testing mid-roll ads in Live videos. And, there’s the new dedicated video News Feed. Oh, and the new pay-per-user enterprise collaboration tool, Facebook Workplace. Amazing!
This week, I lead a free Facebook Marketing webinar hosted by Infusionsoft.
