Easily Manage Your Facebook Groups With Post Notifications
It’s no secret Facebook is prioritizing page content over group content these days, especially stories and reels. So posting to your Facebook business page should be your business’s #1 priority. But for direct sellers, network marketers, affiliate marketers, and small business owners who want to continue posting to their Facebook groups while transitioning to a page, we have the perfect solution…
The next best option to auto-posting in Facebook groups is manually posting to groups with post notifications!
Wait, slow down. What’s the scoop with groups?
On April 22nd, Meta’s making a big change by saying goodbye to 3rd party app access to Facebook groups.
What does this mean? Facebook Group admins will no longer be able to use any 3rd party tools or apps to help manage their Facebook Groups.😭 Scheduling natively using the Facebook scheduler is the ONLY approved way to automate posts to Facebook groups.
We understand this will be a challenge. We schedule all our posts so we feel your pain. And if the thought of having to remember to post manually or spend your precious time searching for your content to copy/paste over and over has you worried. You aren’t alone. That’s why we have a great time saving solution- Post Notifications!
Post Notifications are a Game-Changer for Facebook Groups
This feature is our response to Meta’s big change. It’s designed to make your transition smoother and more manageable while you transition from groups to pages.
Post notifications work by giving you a nudge when it’s time to post in your group. You can schedule your posts ahead of time, just like you would with auto-posting. But instead of the post going live on its own, you’ll receive a notification on your mobile device.
When you get the notification, all you have to do is click on it. The CinchShare app will automatically open up Facebook with your post ready to be published. No need to search for your content or copy/paste anything. It’s all pre-loaded and ready to go. Talk about time saver!
All you have to do is select your group, paste your message, and hit post. It’s as simple as that.
With post notifications, you can continue to maintain an active and engaging Facebook group without the stress of searching for content when manually posting. Everything’s at your fingertips ready to go! And the best part? You can focus more on creating engaging content and building your community.
So exactly how do Post Notifications Work?
Facebook Post notifications work differently than auto-posts to Facebook as they require an additional action to publish. Once you schedule your Facebook Notification post, you’ll get a notification on your mobile device at its scheduled time.
It’s Easy- just follow these steps:
- When you click the notification, CinchShare will open to display a preview of your scheduled post. Click the “Post Now” button.
- Choose to publish your post to your Facebook profile, stories or to your Facebook groups.
- Facebook will open with the image loaded and your caption already pre-saved on your clipboard!
- To add your caption to your post, click the message area and click paste. And that’s it!
Ready to Get Started?
As you embrace this change and pivot to your Facebook page, you can continue to easily manage your Facebook groups with post notifications.
Remember to stay safe online and only utilize Facebook-approved tools for auto-posting. Facebook scheduler is the only way to auto-post to Facebook groups after April 22nd. If a tool/app/Chrome Extension offers auto-posting to Facebook Groups, know they are not accessing Facebook via their official API, and are clearly violating Facebook’s policies and you are too if you use them. Don’t cheat Facebook!
If you’re ready to start taking advantage of post notifications for your Facebook group, we’re here to help. Our team at CinchShare is committed to providing you with the tools and support you need to effectively manage your group while complying with Meta’s new policy changes.
