Here’s a video we came across one day scouring the annals of the internets. It makes a clear case as to why you shouldn’t be buying Facebook likes. With every fake like added to your page, every real person liking your page

will see less and less of your content. Basically, if you artificially inflate your your Facebook likes, you’re hurting yourself in the long run.

Many people can’t do it and Facebook isn’t for everyone. Brandon and I have agreed that Facebook isn’t something we want nor should be focusing on right now. Hence we don’t have an undated Facebook page. If you can’t put the time in, it isn’ worth it.I think this is a brilliant lesson for any situation in life where you have the choice to either a)work hard for something or b) take the easy way out and pay for it. The former is always the harder choice but it comes with a larger reward as well. It’s hard to come up with current and consistent content for Facebook. But if you do it for a long time you get faster and more efficient at it and over time you get a name for yourself. The keywords there are “over time” nothing on social happens over night.

On the other hand, if you do put in the time, you’re going to create a following and inspire a lot of people (COR does a great job of this on Facebook). COR doesn’t pay for likes on Facebook, they acquired them organically from people who love what they share. (that’s why I liked their page, go check out the images they share)

Anytime there’s a choice of the hard way or the easy way, take the hard way. You’ll be happier in the long run. And for crying out loud stop trying to buy influence on Social Media sites, be that Twitter, Facebook, Instagram or Pinterest. Buying influence never works.

What do you think? Can you buy influence?

We have worked with Strategy Lab for over ten plus years. Brandon has always been a true pleasure to deal with. He is very creative and made the design process very easy. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a New Design or Revamp of an old Website.

Fantastic experience with this company. They made things very easy and at a very affordable price. Will definitely continue to use this company in the future.

I honestly don't even know where to start with this crew over at Strategy Lab! We went to them on a whim from recommendations by a few other entrepreneurs in our city. We went to them over the big name companies who specialize in what Strategy Lab does because of the love that was being shown from people they'd worked with. To say we were blown away is an understatement!!! Jeph, David, Carter and Brandon took our social media and marketing to a whole new level and not just that but helped develop us into managing it ourselves in the end. They helped us create awesome content for our website and social media game as well as our advertising campaigns. Content the grabbed our audience and increased all of our viewing and impressions on everything we posted. Thank you doesn't cover the feelings of gratitude we have for the team at Strategy Lab. We cannot wait to see what they can help us do in the next year!! PS, we've only been working with them for 5 months!

Brandon and Jeph worked with Astonished! Inc. to create a beautiful website that reflects Astonished! and they are right there for any technical support we need. Thanks Strategy Lab

The Strategy Lab Crew will always be my GO TO for Marketing business and help. They did a (Real Estate) Business Video for me about 5 years ago and I am still proud to share it around the on-line world today. They are innovative thinking, creative minded, professional, approachable & a fun group of people. I have went to their past Social Media courses and have learned a lot. I have and will continue to refer anyone and everyone to them as I think very highly of them and their work!

Not all heroes wear capes. We wanted to make a difference in our community by undertaking an ambitious charity event. These things tend to be a lot more wok than anticipated and it was obvious the event would need a strong web presence to grow. That is where Strategy Lab became not a vendor, but a partner. Very quickly in our engagement with their passionate team, the vision of a website transferred from our shoulders to theirs. They took the ball and ran with it and the resulting website is incredible and much better than anything we could have envisioned. Thanks to their efforts, our plans for an annual charity event have grown quickly, and the impact in our community is significant. If you want an innovative and energetic team to make your online presence shine; look no further.
