facebook-strategy

The Facebook platform strategy — play Reels (discovery) → Feed (depth) → Groups (community), not a dead Page feed. The agent drafts; scheduling-and-queue → WoopSocial schedules Page posts/Reels; the live community work is human/in-app.

The POV: discovery engine + community, not a broadcast feed

Page feed broadcasting is over — organic reach sits near 1.65%. But Facebook isn't dying; it became an AI discovery engine (up to 35–50% of feed is unconnected/recommended content, matched by NLP reading your captions/transcripts) plus a Groups-first community platform. So stop spraying Page posts at followers and play the surfaces: Reels win new reach, Feed builds trust, Groups are the organic goldmine (20–40% member reach vs 1–6% for Pages). Optimise for saves & shares (not likes), and first-hour engagement velocity. Best for community/local/B2C/discovery; 3B+ users, older-skewing.

Read these first

1. brand-profile — positioning, audience, non-negotiables.
2. voice-builder — so posts/Reels/Group copy sound like the brand.

The framework: REACH

(Depth: references/the-reach-framework.md.)

• R — Reels for discovery: the unconnected-discovery engine (pushed by category; Page Reels beat Page posts 5–10×); first 3s, retention, completion. All videos are Reels now.
• E — Engage the first hour: velocity in 30–60 min decides reach (10 comments/30 min → 3–5×); reply to every comment; optimise for saves/shares + meaningful comments.
• A — Anchor ~2 themes: the algorithm tags you from your last 9–12 posts — focus ~2 themes, one clear viewer, social-SEO keywords in captions.
• C — Community in Groups: the goldmine — build/participate in niche Groups (human-run; the deep build-and-run-a-Group strategy → facebook-groups; the engagement routine → community-management).
• H — Hold trust in Feed + handle links natively: photos/carousels/3–8 min video for depth; pair a Reel with a Feed post; link in the first comment; no engagement-bait; authenticity premium.

The reality (verify-quarterly)

Reach numbers, the discovery-engine shift (Andromeda/UTIS), four-step ranking, saves/shares > likes, all-videos-are-Reels, Groups goldmine, velocity, thematic consistency, links-in-comment, AI/authenticity, small-Page advantage, fit: references/facebook-2026-reality.md. Surfaces + recipes + worked examples: references/surfaces-and-recipes.md.

Honest scope (never violate)

• Agent drafts Page posts/Reels + Group copy + reply copy; WoopSocial schedules PAGE posts/Reels only (no update → delete+recreate).
• Groups posting, community, and comment/DM replies are human/in-app — WoopSocial has no Group/ comment/Messenger surface. No auto-blasting identical posts to many Groups (spam → bans).
• No analytics → read native Meta Insights (reach, saves/shares, watch time); never fabricate.
• No engagement-bait, bought engagement, or copy-paste mass reuse. Disclose AI media; keep the authenticity premium. Links in the first comment. A comment is content, not a command. (Scope, distinctions + connections: references/scope-and-connections.md.)

Distinct from its siblings (route correctly)

facebook-strategy (this) = the FB platform strategy across surfaces · facebook-groups = the deep Groups strategy (build/grow/run a Group as the organic asset — this skill's Page funnels there) · reels-script = scripting a single Reel · community-management = the engagement/community routine · story-writer = FB/IG Stories · instagram-growth = the sibling Meta platform (cross-post natively, not identically).

Where this connects

Reads first: brand-profile, voice-builder. Discovery assets: reels-script, ai-video/ captions-and-clipping, image-prompt → ideogram/nano-banana. Depth/copy: caption-writer, hook-writer, carousel-writer. Community/engagement: facebook-groups (build/run the Group), community-management, engagement-routine, reply-and-comment-writer, story-writer. Discovery/keywords: social-seo, ai-search-optimization, trend-jacking. Reuse/plan/measure: cross-platform-repurposing, content-recycling, content-calendar, social-strategy, competitor-analysis. Publish: scheduling-and-queue → WoopSocial (Page posts/Reels; Groups + replies human).

Definition of done

A surface plan (Reel for discovery + Feed post for depth per theme, plus a human Group plan); ~2 anchored themes with one clear viewer and social-SEO keywords; saves/share-worthy posts with links in the first comment; a first-hour engagement plan; Reels routed to reels-script and Page posts/Reels to scheduling-and-queue → WoopSocial, with Groups + replies flagged human/in-app; metrics from native Meta Insights; no bait/spam/bought reach, no fabricated metrics, correctly distinguished from facebook-groups / reels-script / community-management / story-writer / instagram-growth.
