Facebook Apps for Marketers: What You Need To Know

As you may know, Facebook has 1.59 Billion active users. But, did you know? A whopping 90% of users access the platform via their mobile devices.

This means businesses have to stay nimble with fast-loading content a la Instant Articles (coming to everyone on April 12th). And, this means you need to be able to manage your Facebook business activity on the fly. Be sure to tap into the power of the various Facebook mobile apps, as I wrote about in my latest post for Social Media Examiner.

Every Facebook Page Admin should be using the Pages Manager app for prompt access to messages, as well as scheduling content, and responding to comments and posts by your audience. Plus, the Facebook Ads Manager is super helpful for monitoring your ad campaigns and/or creating quick ads while away from your desk.

On another note, for a quick summary of the new Facebook Pixel, check out the latest #MariMinute video on Business.com.

We’ve heard a lot about Instagram recently because of the new ‘Facebookification’ change to the feed (posts are no longer in chronological order). As expected, Instagram users are a bit upset. However, Instagram is here for the long haul and is still an important network to use. Read on to learn ways to grow your community. And regarding the feed changes, this post from WeRSM explains what they will mean for businesses. That’s all for this week’s issue of The Social Scoop! Here’s wishing you a glorious Easter weekend and a lovely week ahead! I love my peeps! I heart my peeps! On a personal note, I’m delighted to be at home this weekend ready to enjoy a very special, quiet and meaningful Easter break with my partner. Wow, looks like we’re in for sunshine and 80 degree weather. By the way, I had another quick trip to Salt Lake City, Utah this week (Sun-Tues) – working with one of my top clients (a startup in the beauty industry!). Although some days are warmer and springlike in SLC, they also still get snow just now… and I did a fun Facebook Live video as the snow was falling, sharing Facebook Live tips! 😉
