Aug 22, 2019

Do you ever feel all out of ideas for your Facebook group?

Or maybe you’re just tired of posting the same old stuff and/or looking for ideas to boost engagement in your group.

This list of go-to posts will you keep you going...even when you’re feeling at your most uninspired.

1. Opinions please

Got a new product/service to launch? Ask your members to help you decide on the name/title, which logo design you should use and/or which colour you should stock it in.

2. Win of the week

Ask your members to share their biggest ‘win’ of the week. Great for a Friday morning post.

3. The big promotion

Invite your members to share something they want to shout about. This could be anything from a new product or service they’re launching to an achievement they are proud of. To avoid people spamming your group with sales pitches, this is best restricted to a specific day/date.

4. Your week in emojis

Ask your members to describe their day/week in three emojis.

5. Shout out

‘Shout out’ member successes. For best results, shout out several members at a time and tag them into your post.

6. Honesty time

Invite your members to share one thing they are struggling with right now - something they might feel awkward about sharing outside of the group.

7. In the news

Is there a news story everyone is talking about right now? Ask your members what they think about it. Bonus tip: don’t share a link to an article someone else has written about it - explain it in your own words (or on video).

8. Emoji review

Invite your members to review your latest blog post, podcast episode, Youtube video - or your latest Facebook Live video in the group - using just three emojis.

9. The winning shot

Just had a new set of headshots taken for your business? Share your favourites and ask your followers to vote on their winning shot. You can do the same with product photography.

10. Home sweet home

Ask your members to post the name of the town/city where they live (or a photo/video).

11. My favourite place

Invite your members to share a photo or video of their favourite spot in their home/office.

12. Sneak peek

Give a sneak peek of a new product/service you’re working on.

13. Quick tutorial

Shoot a quick ‘how to’ video tutorial showing for your members on a specific topic e.g. how to light their smartphone videos (without any fancy equipment), how to wrap an awkward shaped gift or how to knock up a nativity costume for your child in 30 mins.

14. Oops I did it again

Share the outtakes from your latest social media video or podcast recording. Or share the pictures that didn’t make it to your feed (e.g. the cat walking across your Instagram flatlay).

15. Can you guess what it is?

Share a tool/resource you use in your work and get your members to guess what you use it for.
