Here's why:
New and frequent posts show your fans and followers that you are active, legitimate, and care about them. Old or expired posts could imply your business is closed or isn't invested in its customers.
Use post scheduling to create posts in advance so your Page(s) remains fresh, even when you're away.
Engage your followers with relatable content: Relevant content will help you connect with your audience. Potential customers who see content that matters to them will be more likely to become fans of your Pag(s)e and trust your business.
Here's a few more tips:
-Share more about your business.
-Show customers how you do what you doโeven the boring stuff.
-Avoid jargon.
-Use simple language that your customers can easily understand.
-Donโt use overly industry-specific jargon or phrases that may confuse customers.

A good 'rule of thumb' is to post the same number of times/days each week.
Choose the days you have the largest audience and make those days/times when you want to get your message out.
Consistency is HUGE in so many areas of our lives and it's no different when it comes to posting on social media.
If this is an area that you struggle in, ('cause you're busy running a business) please reach out.
