Facebook Guidelines & Strategies<br />

1. Post regularly<br />

2. Almost always include a picture or video<br />

3. When posting pictures of events, tag <strong>the</strong> people in <strong>the</strong>m to spread <strong>the</strong> word to <strong>the</strong>ir networks<br />

4. Try to tell a story<br />

5. Ask your Facebook friends to “suggest” <strong>the</strong> EBCH: a way <strong>for</strong> current supporters to promote <strong>the</strong> EBCH to <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

friends and family.<br />

6. Post to stimulate conversations: ask a question, pose a dilemma<br />

7. Create links to <strong>the</strong> EBCH website when appropriate<br />

8. Peak time <strong>for</strong> Facebook traffic is Wednesday at 3p.m.<br />

Good to Know<br />

Asking a question on Facebook is beneficial because<br />

it creates posts in response. Here are some examples.<br />

“Who is excited <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> Bike-a-Thon this weekend<br />

“We are looking <strong>for</strong> new fundraising approaches.<br />

Any ideas”<br />

“Please tell your friends to like us!”<br />
