Facebook’s organic reach has drastically declined. That’s a fact. When reach declines, it often feels impossible to get your fans to engage with you on your Facebook Page. It’s really a Catch 22: Low engagement means less people see your posts (this lowers your reach), but you can’t increase your your reach if you don’t increase your engagement. It’s maddening!

You can track it all, and you can track it for free: all you need are Google Analytics and a little bit of UTM link codes.
I’d love to share with you how that’s done. 🙂
