Facebook just came up with the new update for its Facebook story's platform
which allows you to share events with your friends did you know about it if
not stay tuned for this video we're going to cover it in this episode
all right welcome back everybody and thank you for joining me on today's
segment of digital marketing news today my name is Jourdan Steen and I am your
host here at Cereal Entrepreneur and at this channel we talk all about starting
on marketing agency building a personal brand or really just starting any kind
of online business so if you're interested in any of those topics make
sure that you subscribe to our channel by clicking that button and the
notification bell on the bottom right hand corner of this video oh and before
we get into today's update about Facebook stories make sure that you stay
tuned to the end of this video because if you do we'll make sure to walk you
through the step-by-step process of how to actually incorporate these events
into your stories stay tuned now Facebook has struggled over the past
couple of months releasing its platform for Facebook stories and actually
getting its user base involved what's really cool about this new event option
is it's going to target more of that younger demographic because more of the
younger demographic is involved with events on Facebook and sharing them with
their friends on social platforms like Facebook or Instagram things like that
now luckily for you if you didn't know it already is active on Facebook and all
you have to do is go over to any event click the share icon and then share that
event to your stories and then people on your stories or people who follow your
story will be able to update you and let you know if they're going or they're
interested as well so that way everybody can kind of coordinate things together
speaking of challenges though Facebook has had quite a few challenges from a
marketing perspective with all of the new platforms or really not new
platforms but platforms that are coming in as marketing platforms in the
industry you know they're really starting to take some of that share away
from Facebook and so not too long ago we put together this video on whether
Facebook will even be relevant in 2020 so if you're interested in that topic
and the conversation happening around that check out that video in the top
right hand corner what's really cool as we asked a bunch of other influencers
like ron marino maxwell finn and jeremy adams and several others what they
thought about facebook marketing and where it would be in 2020 so if you want
to see their opinions as well we incorporated them into that video also a
cool thing about this is that for marketers you'll actually have the
stickers option right so what will be really cool is if marketers can find a
way to incorporate custom stickers into these stories that go along with their
events so not only are you creating an event but you're creating an experience
and even custom stickers to go along with that that allow users to
engage even more with whatever it is that you're putting on so let me ask you
something could you see yourself using stickers on your facebook stories if so
what kind of stickers do you think would be relevant for an event I would like to
see you guys as ideas below because this is gonna be something that we're gonna
be able to do here very soon let me know what you guys think oh and also if this
is a really cool topic for you and you're really liking that we're putting
together these digital marketing news today videos please do me a favor leave
a thumbs up that lets me know that you really like these news segments if you
do we really want to keep putting them together for you so let us know by
liking the video and giving it a thumbs up below but that's it for the update
and since you stayed till the end we're gonna walk you through how to set one of
these up very quickly if you don't like to see it on video and you'd like to see
it documented you can also go right below this video and go in the
description look for the blog article link and we have it written out
step-by-step over there as well at Cereal Entrepreneur Academy alright guys
so to share an event all you have to do or at least to share it to your stories
because you could always share it this is a boleyn enabling you to share it to
your stories and allow your friends to engage all you have to do is click share
on your screen which in case you couldn't see that because I use my
finger it's right here sure you're just gonna click that and you'll see share to
your story then it's going to pull it up right here and you can see this little
interested button people who see this on your story and also want to go also just
have to click this little button and it will take them directly to the event
page and let them you know determine whether they're gonna go and buy tickets
or you know whatever else they need to do to take part in that event but it
even gives them the date other people are going what it is and just you know
the title of that actual event so you can see we were very very unique in how
we put you know how we wanted people to join we knew there would be a button
down here so we put some context right there what it was a youtube live event
and when it was Thursday January 31st right so we could promote this across
YouTube and actually have other people sharing this event as well so this is a
really really cool thing to incorporate make sure you guys incorporate this into
your strategies for 2019 and forever on so that's how to use it guys and that's
what the new update on Facebook stories is all about if you have any questions
please feel free to leave them below right below this video also make sure to
go back and check out that question I asked you guys earlier
