Share a funnel landing page on Facebook to capture prospects
If you used to post about a class on Facebook with a trigger word people would text you, you can do the same thing in Simple Downline. And for product info you want to promote, a funnel is usually the better fit.
Option 1: a keyword campaign
This is the trigger-word setup you're used to.
- Create a custom campaign with the class or product message you want to send.
- Set a keyword on the campaign.
- Post that keyword on Facebook along with your Simple Downline number.
When someone texts the keyword to your number, the connected campaign can start for that contact. Sending depends on the contact being eligible and the account having the required setup and credits, so the message may not arrive immediately. An email campaign also needs the contact's email address.
Option 2: a funnel
For product info you want to promote, a funnel gives you a landing page you can share on Facebook. Submitting the form adds or matches the contact in your account. Follow-up depends on what you set up on that funnel.
If you fill in both the email subject and body, an eligible signup can receive a follow-up email. To include a selected resource, put {{resourceLink}} in the email body. You can also connect a Custom or Drip campaign to start a sequence. The funnel does not send a separate automatic text reply on its own.
If the person who fills out the form is new to you, they get added as a prospect in your account. If their email or phone number matches an existing contact who already has a member ID, they aren't added as a prospect. Instead, that contact just gets tagged with the funnel.
If you set a funnel tag, it is added to the new or matched contact so you can follow up later through a Custom campaign.
Posting a funnel landing page link is probably the best way to get more interest on Facebook and pull those people into Simple Downline on their own.
