Instagram Reels are fantastic. But why stop there? 🤔 You can now publish Facebook Reels directly from Sendible's dashboard! 🤩
Meta has been doubling down on Reels for some time now. And there's a good reason for it - short-form videos are the most consumed social media content!
For you, as a marketer, this format offers a plethora of additional ways to promote your or your client's business by:
- Doing quick Q&A
- Debunking myths
- Hopping on viral trends
- Creating how-to tutorials
- Introducing team-members
- Showing your audience how the product is made
- Promoting website content in an entertaining way
And oh so much more.
Until now, one of the two limits was logging into each Facebook account to share your creativity. And that left room for mistakes.
But since you can now rely on Sendible to 📅 schedule and publish your Facebook Reels at the best time possible, the only limit is your imagination! ✨
And if you have any doubts about whether it's worth your time, here's an undeniable fact why Facebook Reels are a piece of the puzzle you've been missing:
Unlike Instagram Reels and TikTok videos, Facebook allows you to include a clickable link in the caption.
And this is a major win for all marketers struggling to improve traffic flow to their website, capture leads, and increase sales.
So, without further ado, check out our detailed walkthrough video and how this feature benefits you. 👇
