How to Get Painting Leads Seamlessly Using a Facebook Messenger Bot

Facebook data shows that 53% of people are more likely to interact with a business they can message directly.

…the less likely they’ll want to do business with you.

In fact, with everyone and their mom on social media,
they’re able to contact another painter who can respond much quicker.

Yet it is perfectly understandable that you, as a painting business owner,
aren’t going to be able to sit around 24/7 waiting for someone to contact you.

That’s where Facebook Messenger bots come in!

What Are Facebook Messenger Bots?

Facebook Messenger bots are automated scripts that communicate with users on your behalf.

They’re able to answer a lot of repetitive questions you get on a daily basis.

They’re also able to gather useful information from a user and hold onto it for you to personally respond to on your own time.

Check out how you can prequalify a prospect before they book a painting estimate:

Facebook Growth Tip #1 for Painting Contractors: Post Quality Content

Posting quality content does not mean that you have to create it yourself.
It’s okay to share other people’s content on Facebook but when doing so be sure to copy and paste the content & photo then give credit to the original poster versus just sharing.

One thing I’ve noticed is that many Facebook Business Pages are strictly posting things about their business only.

However, a large percentage of your content doesn’t have to be about painting at all!

Here are 5 types of Facebook posts that drive engagement like crazy…
