Creating Facebook Stories
So creating a Facebook story is just like creating an Instagram story, but the best thing about this is that you can schedule your Facebook story. Facebook Stories are getting more popular by the day, especially when you can link the Instagram and Facebook together.
If you want to upload a story strictly to Facebook, and you’re not too sure where to go, look at this. All right, so right now we’re at the home screen, or we’re at the menu for 92 social.
What you want to do is go on the lower left hand, hit Home, and this gives you, you know, it says reels and stories. You just want to highlight stories. Press the plus button.
Now that we highlighted the story feature, so where we are right now is under create story. It gives us text, gives us music, boomerang, or even a selfie. A lot of different features like filters and all that stuff, kind of like what Snapchat has. But let’s say if I want to upload this photo. So I highlight this, it gives me an option.
So you have stickers, text, music, effects, draw. You can draw, “Hello,” perfect. So yeah, you can hit done. Now it’s saved.
Scheduling Story Posts
The next step, if you want to just upload the image, and the image itself or the video, you just hit Share Story. So here’s a quick tip, when you are posting Facebook Stories or even Instagram Stories, you want to post anywhere between two to four stories per post per series. It gives the audience a little bit more to look at and digest what kind of information or what kind kind of value you want to give out to your audience.
So have that in mind for your agency or even one of your clients that you post heavily on the stories on.
So I would definitely suggest using music, filters, boomerang, all those things, because it gives you the best chance to hit the algorithm to generate the Facebook algorithm. And if you’re wondering,
“Riley, how do I schedule a post? I’ve been waiting for an entire video for this!”
Let’s dig in.
All right, so let’s jump right into the Vista Social and highlight a Facebook post. We have Let’s look at the lay of the land right now. On the left hand side, we have our agency profiles. We have a couple of our clients’ Instagrams and Facebooks and LinkedIn. So let’s look at Liberty Eats Facebook page.
So we highlighted the Facebook page. Let’s go over to the left hand side, hit Create New Post, and now it gives us to where everyone knows the publishing side.
So now that we uploaded an image and where it says “Publish as Image,” you hit that, scroll down to “Publish as Story“.
Publishing and Scheduling
So let’s do a recap.
We highlighted the Facebook profile. We uploaded a content, and then we head over to our right hand side of the screen and highlighted “Publish as Story.” Now all we have to do is either schedule or publish now. You know what? I feel like publishing now and then make sure that we have everything’s on the right day, right time. Publish, and now it’s live. And it’s that easy. And that is how you schedule a Facebook story on Vista Social.
