By now, you may have heard about all the brouhaha in regard to Facebook limiting which pages you see in your newsfeed.
The truth is that Facebook wants me to pay in order to reach all of my Facebook fans:
I love you guys to pieces, but unfortunately $50 a post just isn’t in my budget. Therefore, a majority of you will be in the dark if we continue to rely on Facebook as our main method of delivering deals.
I don’t want to give up Facebook entirely since it still remains the best way to send out time sensitive deals (unless you are a Twitter user). But I can’t guarantee those deals will reach your newsfeed. That’s why I often encourage you to ‘like’ a post. {I promise it’s not because I just want to feel warm fuzzies.} The more you interact with a page, the more likely you will see that page’s posts. But even then, you may not see them all.
I’ve scratched my head countless times trying to figure out how to overcome this obstacle. I’ve finally come to this conclusion:
Let’s be friends somewhere else.
That’s why I’m giving away an Omaha Steaks Prize Pack (valued at $178) to one lucky reader who signs up for my email newsletter. It’s my fun little gift to you all packaged in one daily email…and email doesn’t leave anybody out!
Should you still follow me on Facebook? Sure. Some of the deals I post go quickly and may be expired by the time the newsletter reaches you. (Honestly? Checking Cha-Ching on a Shoestring throughout the day might be an even better option!)
But did I mention that I’m giving away an Omaha Steaks Perfect Dinner Package (valued at $178!!) to one lucky reader just for signing up for my email newsletter?
It includes: (2) top sirloins, (1) 3 lb. package of oven-fried chicken tenders, (6) Omaha Steaks burgers, (1) 16 oz. package of Omaha Steakhouse® Fries, (1) 18 oz. tray of chicken fettuccine alfredo and (4) caramel apple tartlets.
{Anyone else’s mouth watering?}
