CREATION AND POST MANAGEMENT
Building a social media presence is essential for any business wanting to succeed. Facebook is the most important marketing tool for organizations, so garden centers need to make sure they have a strong presence on the platform. Without it, you miss out on many potential customers!
Taking advantage of Facebook’s free reach is a no-brainer. You’re spending valuable time and money on marketing to get your message across – time that could be better used to grow your business.
Free yourself from an endless cycle of posts, save time and money on social media team expenses and increase traffic to your store.

Post Management, Frequency and Constancy
It isn’t a secret anymore, the success
of your Facebook page is directly related
to the frequency and constancy
of your posting activities.
As we look back on past experiences, it is clear how crucial it is to remain published throughout the year. Consistency is key in order to keep the momentum going from the peak season and stay relevant until next spring!
By subscribing to our service, your Facebook page will be updated with new content every day of the week. We will post regularly from spring to mid-fall, and three times a week from mid-fall to late winter. This way, you can stay top of mind for your customers and subscribers, even when you’re busy in your garden center or closed for a few months in the winter.

Newsletter Subscription
To avoid missing an opportunity to build your email list, our team of experts have developed two strategies for your Facebook page to encourage subscription to your newsletter.
Firstly, we will integrate a “Subscribe” button at the top of your Facebook page. The button will be web-linked to a subscription form.
Secondly, we will create posts to promote subscription to your newsletter. The posts will also be web-linked to a subscription form.
Another effective way to boost the number of subscriptions is to organize a prize draw of gift certificates among the new subscribers. If you decide to go ahead with a prize draw, the results of this will be promoted on your Facebook page.
Plus, the winners will be posted on your Facebook page. This will generate interest among your Facebook community and help increase the reach of your content and support your brand awareness.
Cover Photo
Throughout the year, the cover photo
of your Facebook page will be changed twice
per month, in accordance with special holidays
or seasons: conifers with snow, Valentine’s day,
tulips, annuals, roses, palm trees, hydrangeas, Thanksgiving, Christmas, etc
Statistics
Every month, we will provide you with some Facebook statistics such as the number of visitors and likes
of your page, your most shared posts, the number
of additional newsletter subscribers,
the number of clicks on your Retail Flyer
Promotions and your Digital Flyer, etc.
Winter Program
During the winter, you might think that your team
will have more time to manage your Facebook page, but what if your staff numbers have dropped?
What if your staff don’t have the expertise and skills
to write content as great as Horticulture Marketing
can produce?
Our past experience shows us how important it is
to post all year round and to be consistent.
The idea is to capitalize on the high season momentum and stay “top of mind” until next spring!
If you subscribe to our service, your Facebook page will post new content every day of the week from spring to mid-fall, and three times a week from mid-fall through to the end of winter. No matter if you are busy in your garden center or if you are closed for a few months during winter, you will stay in your customers’ minds.
