Tip #1: Optimize your Facebook Page

Being a user is not the same as being a business owner on Facebook, it takes an entirely different skill set. One of the most important action steps to take when it comes to Facebook marketing for travel agents is to set up a business Facebook page.

To get started, first decide whether you are an individual agent or a travel agency. If you are a travel agency, a Facebook business page is an absolute MUST. A Facebook page gives your company credibility, allows people to leave reviews, and has options for you to enter business information like business hours, links for where to reach out, and so much more. Be sure to provide as much information as possible to your page visitors and use high quality images complimented by engaging posts.

Tip #2: Create a Facebook Group with Exclusive Content

Now that you’ve set up and optimized your Facebook page, consider hosting a travel themed group. Facebook groups have a completely different algorithm than a business page and allow you to reach more people. You can even list your group under your business page, showing page visitors you are able provide even more value and expertise.

To get started with your Facebook group, think about the following questions:

• What is you niche?
• What are you most passionate about when it comes to travel?
• How can you provide valuable content in interesting and engaging ways?
• How can you host the group and be a storyteller?

When creating a Facebook group, don’t forget to be the leader. Spark conversations in creative ways that keep group members active and chatting.
