We Need Your Help!

October 12, 2012

Ever heard of a little thing called Facebook?

Almost all artists have a presence on Facebook, whether it’s private, related to your business, or both. Did you know Greeting Card Universe has its very own Facebook page? And we need your help.

GCU is making a new post every day on Facebook and have started a real effort to gain “edgerank.” What’s that, you ask? Put simply, Facebook uses an algorithm to determine how many “fans” see your posts. Here’s a neat little infographic that explains a lot if you want to get into it further. Look at it sort of like getting pagerank on a search engine. Not exactly the same, but the idea is more exposure.

Anyway, of course GCU wants to get as many fans and followers to see their posts as possible because that’s good business. The more people who see the posts on their timelines, the more potential shoppers are created, the more GCU’s business grows … and the more YOUR business grows. More shoppers = more sales.

So it makes sense for you to “like,” “share,” and comment on GCU’s Facebook posts once in a while. Doing this will increase GCU’s visibility, which ultimately  increases the visibility of your cards.

If you haven’t become a “fan” of GCU’s Fzcebook page already, please do so, and drop a little love now and then by liking, sharing, and commenting on a post.

It helps them, it helps you, and every time you share a post, a kitten giggles. 🙂
