No.7 Are the social media buttons
to encourage sharing of your stall. Facebook, Google+ and Twitter
all use protocols to maximise the shareability of your page. See
part 7 of the
set-up instructions.
No.8 This is the album
description in the facebook album on your Facebook page. The
description should be easy to read, welcoming and indicate the
broad collection of services represented by each of the pictures
in the album, each of which also have descriptions that tell the
potential customer what it is you do. It's a good idea for each
description in each picture to have a link to an additional album
representing a broader collection of pictures illustrating the
service or product.
No.9 Is the article stack found
on each article page, of which there are about 700 as of May 2016.
When we publicise an article on our pages we can call the article
forcing your stall's thumbnail to be displayed at the top of the
stack. This is another of the earned rewards for your support to
the network in our groups.
No.10 Is your profile picture. If
you are a company you could use a team photo. Because we run a
people based social network this picture must be of a person or
team of people.
No.11 Above the profile picture
at No.10 is a caption with your name, the date you joined the
market and 3 dots. The dots are a link to your post in the market
place group used to manage your stall. This group is currently
public but will become private after the transition to the new
market from the old is complete.
No.12 This is the collection of
pictures in your Facebook or Pinterest portfolio of products
and/or services. If you are using a Pinterest portfolio the
description at No.8 is not offered. A visitor to your stall does
NOT need to be a Facebook or Pinterest user to be able to see and
read the pictures in the album. It is advisable to include a link
to your website and your contact details in each picture
description.
No.13 This is a short bio about
you which can end in a 'More...' (at
No.14) link to a more complete
bio on your website or social media account like LinkedIn or the
'About' in Facebook..
No.15 These are the collection of
services, one for each picture in your portfolio at No.12. These
are used in the drop-down lists in the
market place so readers can find you as a provider for a
particular service. Where possible links are made from the service
list to any articles on your website that discuss aspects of the
service.
No.16 Is a link to an article
library on your website or other notable publications like a news
article about your work by a 3rd party publisher.
No.17 These are links to your knowledge
posts in our Facebook groups. These are another mechanism by which
you can earn additional exposure in the network. Collectively
these posts demonstrate your broad experience and help potential
customers choose you are a service provider.
No.18 These are video or audio links to
more of your work e.g. if you are a builder a tour of one of your
homes or a local radio interview etc. |
