How to Boost Posts on Facebook

What is a Boosted Post?

A Boosted Post is simply taking a regular Facebook post and spending a bit of money to promote it to people who may not have seen it organically. It is the fastest and easiest way to get your content in front of more people!

Why should I boost posts?

Organic reach on Facebook has dropped. The average post will only reach a small fraction of the people who follow your Facebook page. Boosting a post helps you:

• Target based on age, interests and geography

• Turn a post into an ad within minutes, without having to get into Facebook Ads Manager

• Quickly see what type of content is working, and what isn’t

Once you have an ad account created for your Facebook Page, you can follow this video tutorial to get your posted content in front of the right people: 

How to Boost a Post on Facebook

Here’s what we recommend for the ideal post:

Make a post that includes:

• A nice building image

• A brief description of the building and its possible uses

• A link to the building design

• A call to action that encourages them to design their own building

Here’s an example:

"Check out this 30' x 40' gable building. With 12' sidewalls and a 10' x 10' roll up door, this building is perfect for storing your car, bike or ATV. Click the link below to customize your own design!

Boosted posts are great for targeting people within your surrounding area. We generally boost our posts for a week or so at anywhere from $7 - $10 per day!
