Step-by-Step Guide to Connect Your Facebook Page

First, you need to connect your Facebook page to HighLevel:

1. Navigate to Marketing:
   • Go to the Marketing section in your HighLevel dashboard.
   • Click on Social Planner at the top.
2. Connect Your Facebook Page:
   • Click on Add Account and select the Facebook icon.
   • Continue as yourself, and authorize HighLevel to access your Facebook pages.
   • Select the page where you are an admin, click Add, and you’re connected!

Creating and Scheduling Your Facebook Reel

Now that your Facebook page is connected, let’s create and schedule a Reel:

1. Create a New Post:
   • Go to the top right corner and click Create New Post.
   • In the social scheduler, select your connected Facebook page from the drop-down menu.
   • Choose Reel at the top.
2. Compose Your Reel:
   • Type your content in the text box. For example, “This is a demo reel.”
   • Click on the video icon to upload your Reel. Select Upload File and choose your video.
   • Wait for the progress bar to show the upload is complete.

Final Touches and Scheduling the Post

To optimize your Reel, you can add a follow-up comment and more:

1. Add a Follow-Up Comment:
   • Utilize the follow-up comment feature to include a link. This improves visibility and reach by avoiding links in the description.
   • For example, add a link like example.com in the follow-up comment section.
2. Customize Your Post:
   • You can choose to apply a watermark, select a category, and add tags. For this demo, we’ll leave these options empty.
3. Schedule Your Post:
   • Click on Schedule Post, select the date and time, and hit Schedule Post.

Viewing Your Scheduled Post on Facebook

Once scheduled, you can view your post on your Facebook page:

1. Check Your Facebook Page:
   • Go to your Facebook page to see how the post appears.
   • Click on the comments to see the follow-up comment with your link.

Important Notes and Conclusion

Keep in mind that this feature is currently available only for Facebook pages. If you select a Facebook group instead, your post will appear as a regular post in the group feed.
