The Friend Share Deal Reveal tool builds upon the successful Friend Share app and is designed to help social marketers empower their fans to share with their friend networks in order to access a deal.

The App engages the fan to take action to get the deal offer, incorporates a unique friend list tool for easy access to friend sharing, and allows the fan to post a message direct to a friend’s News Feed. The clicks and actions by those shared with tend to be higher since the messages comes from the trusted friend.

Friend Share, Share DealNovember 12, 2012

The premise is simple: BOOST Facebook Page Engagement by fan sharing in order to access a Deal.

Offer a deal such as a coupon or discount code. In order to “unlock” your Facebook Page deal, the fan must share the deal with others! After the share, the fan gets access to your offer. It all happens on your Fan Page custom tab!

The new “Share Deal” App from TabSite is a great tool for offering a special discount, an e-book download, a savings code, or other promo on your Facebook Page that spreads easily and quickly to reach others because fans need to share the deal in order to get access themselves.

This App is available at the Platinum Plan level and includes the Promotional Tool feature enabling you to build a call-out to add to your website/blog to drive traffic to the tab!

The ‘Share Deal’ app for Pages offers quick setup with tools including:

• Ability to add a branded header image

• A main body image that outlines the deal offer

• Social sharing buttons on the Tab including the Share button, Pinterest Pin button, Google’s +1 and also the Tweet button that can have customized text

• Ability to add a Like Gate image for fan gating to boost your Facebook Page Like count

• Promotional Tools including a Smart URL for posting that detects mobile devices and displays a mobile friendly version of the Facebook Tab

• Integrated ability to create a website/blog call-out image so that Admins can use the provided embed code to add to blog and websites to drive traffic to the Facebook Page tab. This image call-out will link to the Facebook Page Tab wherever it is added. Note that due to Facebook terms of service, we have to offer a “skip” button on the share. This is a Facebook Terms of Service mandate as someone cannot be forced to Share as the only means to access a promotion.
