Facebook Posting Service: Schedule and Drip Posts for Your FB Page

[PampChefJoy]

So I've seen some discussion around this and it seems like there might be a demand for something like this that is PC-based, not generic.... If so, what kind of information/posting would you want to "drip" on your page, and how much would you be willing to pay for something like that?

The ability to schedule posts on FB pages now has got me thinking this might be something I can offer as a service...

Pictures catch people's attention. Everyone loves recipes. But we of course want to communicate the specials to our customers, too.As far as payment... I may not be the best person to say right now, because I'm really not spending much of anything on my business, as it's not very active. At one point, when I was thinking about it more, the number I was tossing around in my head was around $0.25-0.50 per post, with 2-3 posts per weekday. That would range from $10 - $30 per month, depending on the frequency and the per post price.

I'm interested, Joy. I wouldn't want as many posts as Noora does. I think one a day at most. Of course, I still need to set-up a biz page on FB. I wouldn't do one a day on my personal page even if it was just a recipe. I'd be willing to pay $5/month for 20 posts (5/week). I see posts from my PC friends on FB with recipes, tips, and specials and I just don't get around to doing that many posts and don't have the technical ability sometimes to get some of those things on FB without it being a "share."

Interesting about the frequency... see, as a consumer, I don't think I would want to see daily posts. I subscribe to alot of business feeds and I tend to dislike those that post daily. I realize you want to post frequently enough to catch people's attention - especially if they have alot of friends and news tends to get buried on their walls... but too frequently is a turnoff too, I think.

That was my thought behind the 2-3 per day. Because of FB's settings for "Top Posts" and such, a single post per day might never get seen by some people. By doing a couple per day, spaced throughout, you can catch most people regardless of what time of day is their FB time.
