“When you change one thing, you have the ability to change EVERYTHING.”
In order to keep up with the competition, you want to make sure that your business is utilizing all of the newest features on social media.
Facebook has included the “stories” feature on the app and it is a fantastic way to humanize your business and your brand. Stories allow for consumers and followers to see behind the scenes of your business and connect with you on a more genuine level than traditional marketing and timeline posts. 73% of people in the US agreed that stories pursued them to interact with new businesses outside of things in their everyday lives, 65% of people in the US say that stories help them feel more connected and closer to brands that they follow on social media, and 57% of people in the US said that stories make them feel included in a much larger community than the Facebook timeline.
Facebook’s sister site, Instagram, has included the “reels” feature that is changing the way of the Instagram game and now Facebook! Reels consist of short videos that intrigue consumers at a higher level compared to your basic “picture post”. Reels can include music or handcrafted audio of your choosing and brings a more complex experience to your viewers! Reels allow you to showcase your brand in a new way and express yourself genuinely while allowing users to engage with your content in a fun way.
The newest way to engage in videoconferencing has now been brought to Facebook through “rooms”. These Messenger Rooms allow you to connect with and video chat with up to 50 people at one time, in one room – that’s insane! Forget Zoom meetings, Facebook rooms allow easy access to anyone that you are already connected and friends with on Facebook. The best part is that there is no time limit to the conference call, you have screen share capabilities and it is formatted specifically for business meetings!

2. Tap Create Story
3. Select a photo or video from your camera roll or take a current photo by pressing the Camera Icon
