When I got started marketing online, back in 2012 I didn’t know what I was learning. I was all over the place, jumping from here to there, doing this and that, and not making anything stick. I did this for a couple of years and then I figured out my place in this whole internet marketing arena. I did learn quite a bit however, and it’s been a fun adventure. More about that in future podcasts.

The answer is found in yesterdays podcast, that is that people aren’t seeing your posts as much as they could be. According to a 2013 salesforce article 25 Mind Blowing Email Marketing Stats

roughly half of an email list will be active. This is opening or clicking on links. That’s substantially up from the 2-6% on Facebook a year later then that article was published, and even more then the 16% in 2012. This is also even better then the 1-3% impressions on twitter.

So, in short, you should build an email list over a Facebook page. That being said you shouldn’t neglect Facebook either. Want to chat more about strategy for your business? Get in contact with me.
