A creative way to get them onto your list is to have a Facebook Event, invite all of them to it and create a registration form that will act as an opt-in.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"img756\" class=\"size-medium sq_image aligncenter\" title=\"facebook events\" src=\"https:\/\/ask8.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/AAEAAQAAAAAAAAfFAAAAJDZjNzBmMmE3LTA0NzQtNDYwOC1iYmUzLTA1NWE2ZjdmZTA2ZA.jpg\" alt=\"facebook events\" width=\"500\" \/><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Here is how to create your first Facebook Event:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>1.

Create your facebook event at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/events\/upcoming\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/events\/upcoming<\/a>\u00a0Perform this step at least two weeks before your event to give you time to market it well. You will input information about the date, name, and details of the event plus the destination URL. You can then send invitations to all your friends and fans.<\/p>\n<p>4. Publicize your event.<\/p>\n<p>Write status updates about your event at least once a day for the next two weeks. This will show up in the newsfeed of all your friends and fans. If you have a Facebook Group you can send a direct message to all of them. Encourage your followers to spread the word about your event to their social network and to \u2018like\u2019 your event tab. As the date approaches for the event, increase your updates to 2 or 3 times a day.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>If you\u2019re looking to gain new customers, save money <\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">reach a larger target audience,<\/span> <\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">NOW is the TIME to get STARTED<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ask8.com\/social-media-optimization-branding\/\"><strong>CONTACT US TODAY!<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Get a FREE Consultation <\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Join our FB Group :<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/ask8now\/\">Ask8 About Digital Marketing<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>or CALL 516-699-ask8 (2758)<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; #Ask8now \u2013 #Building Your #List With #FacebookEvents A creative way to get a large #Facebook friend and #fan following to be on your #localbusiness #emaillist via #registration #form that will act as an opt-in.
