Facebook

With your direct sales business, you may have a Facebook business page and Facebook groups serving different communities. It’s sometimes easier to think about a months worth of posts by looking at each week individually and breaking it down day by day from there.

Theme days like #MotivationMonday or #ThirstyThursday also help to inspire your Facebook posts. Take it day by day, and be sure to utilize the Scheduled Posts Feature on your Facebook business page. Schedule your posts for the month and watch your follower count rise!
