12 Businesses that Appear Human When Marketing on Facebook

Posted 11 July, 2014

12_Businesses_that_Appear_Human_When_Marketing_on_Facebook-lsmarketing with FacebookI love the idea of using stories & photos from REAL people when marketing on Facebook!

Remember: authenticity is key to standing out in an ever more crowded news feed.

Most businesses are battling to catch the attention of their fans -- and some companies have resisted showing a more human face.

The concerns I hear are that it's risky & that no one else is using posts that seem human.

So what?! It doesn't matter that nobody else is posting great content like that.

Be the first company in your industry who REALLY does it right!

There are businesses doing a great job humanizing their voice & tone on social media -- and these companies are some of my favorites.

To inspire you, I found posts from 12 pages that show strong examples of how YOU can apply these concepts when marketing on Facebook.

Don’t try to do it all at once. Change takes time -- especially since the voice & tone of your posts might evolve.
