👹 Algorithms Facebook wants you to pay for ads. It deploys trolls 👺 (Algorithms) under bridges to scan and question your post. They read images, detect keywords, and evaluate the intention of your post. If they think you’re selling, the troll puts a ball-and-chain on your post to reduce it’s speed. Expat Groups Get 100s of members from expat groups into your Mundo Lingo City Group 1 · Find groups with your city name - Join all that are vaguely relevant. Searching "London" 2 · Carefully select 4 - 6 beautiful photos. Take your time, pick warm shots. → Not eye contact shots - They’re cheesy and lame 🤮 So lame omg 3 · Write a short and punchy text, like this About 200 people from all over the world every week. They’re all friendly, everyone is welcome and it’s free. 🔼 Native flag at the top ⏬ Other flags follow 🚻 Stand to mingle, sit to dwindle! 4 · People ask ‘where is it?’, ‘When?’, ‘more info!’… FB sees people find your post interesting, so shows it to yet more and more users (virality). Wait 1hr before you slowly begin to reply. Tag your City Group 100’s of reactions with no hashtags, no links, no buzz words like “Join” or “Free” 👇 169 reactions, 60+ comments, 100s of Member requests in our City Group 🌱 Your City Group With expats now pouring into your City Group we must foster a community feeling. This is their space to talk to each other, ask questions, help eachother. It’s not about Mundo Lingo, it’s about them! Personal vs Mundo Lingo Profile Posts as your personal profile make the group feel active and friendly. Official announcements are done with the Mundo Lingo profile and in accordance with Online Representation Feed the cow … 🐄 This happens frequently (milking the cow without feeding it), is when you suffocate the Group with Mundo Lingo Spam, photos, event schedules hoping to squeeze a few more participants into your event this week, without feeding the community so that it lasts until next week. Eventually you will be talking alone, rookie moo’ve! 🐮 Delete old promo posts. Ask friends to engage with questions and memes, get the feeling going! If you wrote the last 3 posts, let’s breath, take a break. 🧘‍♀️ Tell all participants at the Reception Table about your FB group Tell all expat groups about your group via the 5 Photo Post No Group Entry Questions Making new members answer tedius questions puts them off (they’re busy). If you insist on asking something to check they’re human, keep it simple, like “Where do you live?”, but best to have no questions at all. Member Requests Catch those spam accounts. Pay attention to accounts created recently or have no profile photo. If you let any slip through, they’re quite easy to remove later. Ask Moderators to help you. What’s Spam? If they ask for money, it’s spam. If they offer money (job listing) it’s okay. If it’s culture or city-integration related and free, then we can let it pass. Welcome message Boost group activity with weekly welcome posts Open your City Group → People → "Write New Post" Keep it simple + fast to read Survey Engagement Make your community feel like part of the project with a post like this: What do you think of Mundo Lingo's venues, our team's welcome, event atmosphere and event times? We want to hear your comments, ideas and generally if you consider that we live up to your expectations. Thank you!
