As we continue our series of social media guidelines, you will discover many benefits that Facebook can add to your Business. There are, however, some activities that you should try to avoid. Sure, it’s your own personal page; but we want to make sure you are set up for success. We even included the reasons.
1. Don’t regularly post your corporate link
If you post your Company link too often, it can backfire and actually turn people off. Be confident that your related conversations will be interesting enough to draw others’ attention.
2. Don’t name your Facebook page with any FreeLife trademarks
Your Facebook page should be what it is intended to be. Yours. Stay away from using Corporate Trademarks such as GoChi®, FreeLife®, or TAIslim® in your title. Instead, go with something more personal.
3. Don’t let every post on your wall be about the Business Opportunity
You want people to learn more about you and what you do, but let them see that you are a real person. Share some tips, training, or just some things about yourself.
4. Don’t list FreeLife as your employer
Remember that you don’t work for us – rather, we work together. Be proud that you are a self-employed FreeLife Independent Marketing Executive.
5. Don’t make over-the-top claims
Personal testimonials cannot be made that include any claim that FreeLife products are useful in the cure, treatment, diagnosis, mitigation, or prevention of any diseases.
6. Resist the temptation to post the Business Opportunity or Corporate link on others’ walls (unless by request)
You know what you have to offer is great. And, so do we! But those who have not yet witnessed the FreeLife Mission in action may view such unrequested posts as pushy.
7. Stay away from “sales-pitch style” language
Avoid claims that you “have the greatest this,” or “will save your life,” or “literally sells itself.” Stay in reality, and be straightforward. It will separate you from the pack.
8. Don’t post negative things about you, another person, or competitor
Nice attracts nice. If you speak negatively, you will attract naysayers. Remember our mission: “To serve each other by promoting good health, well-being, and the opportunity for an abundant life.”
