Lead Gen


Tip of the Week from Bri Martin

In this video, Bri from TeamRouse City shares her updated, Facebook-friendly strategy for generating quality leads using Real Geeks, Canva, and simple tools you already have.

Key Takeaways:

Avoid Facebook rejections: Stay away from “promotional” phrases and long links
Use editorial-style Canva carousels: Clean, minimal designs keep the focus on the home
Shorten links with Bitly: Looks polished and less spammy
Write personal captions: Use mini-stories or questions to engage viewers—avoid buzzwords
Organize in Apple Notes: Keep graphics, captions, and links ready to post
Post via Meta Business Suite: Upload carousels, use link in bio for IG, and boost lightly
Delay forced sign-in on Real Geeks site: Allow 5-property preview to warm up leads
Auto-assign leads: Round-robin distribution ensures fast follow-up

This human-first approach builds trust, gets better engagement, and still supports your systems behind the scenes.
