  • If you do Facebook marketing to promote your craft products, you might be making these common mistakes and missing out on potential sales. Facebook engagement is not hard to get, you just need to know how to post, what kinds of content to post, what to say in your posts and when to post (hint: check your Facebook page insights and follow the data!)

    I took your advice and posted a necklace on a white background with a simple question, "What's your favourite flower?" And had double the reaction of any post in the last 2 months. Looking at analytics I can see that posts where I post simple questions have much more reaction! Thank you :) Implementing your strategies bit by bit ^_^

    You're correct about posting other's work. I sell weekly at our area farmers market. When I combine one of my food products with something from another vendor's products and tag the market, I get the bonus of them sharing on their pages. This has gotten me so many new followers and customers.

      What if we tagged other pages, but they didn't react about our business too? So seems like we just gave them some followers without benefits

I am feeling a little intimidated about my launch - so much to learn about websites and marketing aside from creating my digitized designs. Thank you for doing these videos they have helped me a lot. I will look into your website and your courses on marketing as that is my weak point.

    I love the way you only put simple questions. You show your product without making it an ad or asking people to buy anything, but you get engagement. Is there any way to figure out if the post generate sales?

    • @CreativeHiveCo

    • @CreativeHiveCo

      It's the same thing!

    • @annitagalvan9049
      @annitagalvan9049 Před 2 lety

      Thank you for your response, but in another comment of this video, I read that boosting a post is like a "dead end" ad, though you recommend to invest at a Facebook ad.
      It seems that there is a difference, but thank you for your time to respond.

    • @CreativeHiveCo
      @CreativeHiveCo  Před 2 lety

      Ah, I see what you mean. I was referring to the fact that for both you are paying for views. This article explains the boosting: www.agorapulse.com/blog/boost-post-facebook-advertising/ but I do personally prefer and use FB ads.

    Hi Mei, can I use my personal page for my business instead of starting a new page for the business.. Like I will change my name to the business name and all that stuff..

    • @CreativeHiveCo
      @CreativeHiveCo  Před 4 lety +2

      I wouldn't. The business page is a more formal format. You can post your business location and contact info, and you can link to your products or email list. It's really best to keep business and personal separate, and personal FB pages don't do the work the business page will. Here's a video on setting up your business page: czcams.com/video/m8cEtiatTn0/video.html

    • @CreativeHiveCo
      @CreativeHiveCo  Před 4 lety +1

      The best thing to do is test a few posts and look at the engagement you get. Look at your stats and insights for the post. See the times people are responding to it. Then test another one at what seems to be your best time and compare.

    • @CreativeHiveCo
      @CreativeHiveCo  Před 4 lety +2

      You could follow accounts that you feel are in your niche and start interacting with them. This could bring them over to your account. You can use hashtags to get your content noticed, and you can post teaser photos ahead of the product - maybe supplies, tools, in-progress - just to give a little peek.

    I've shared your videos with my friends and family who, like me are interested in starting their own handmade products business, so I told them, start here and watch EVERYTHING! That's what I'm doing and I feel so much more prepared to take the necessary steps to get my business off on the right foot, and using your advice and learning from your experience, I believe I'm ready to take the first steps toward a lucrative and rewarding business doing what I love...and working smarter, thanks to YOU! BTW, my life's passion is miniatures, but that's not what I'll be selling, unless, as per your advice I might make it a small, occasional part of my business, cause as you know handcrafting something like 40-50 teeny-tiny cherries to top my Graham-cracker crust cheesecake for the dollhouse I have been building since dinosaurs roamed the earth...so yeah, point taken, as much as I love every second making my teeny tiny cherries and Graham cracker crust cheese cake, is definitely not be the best use of my time!
