One of the many things we do day to day in radio is maintain social media accounts. There isn't some robot replying to comments, adding posts, and more... it is one of us humans behind the screen, making sure you are seen AND heard.

Technology Doesn't Always Just "Click"

As Paul from the Breakfast Flakes highlighted this morning in his article (below), we forget that some people "just don't know how" to do things when WE already know how to do it... and it seems "just so easy".

He went on to explain that statement about e-signing because Paul isn't the most tech-savvy guy around, but when it comes to changing a tire or hooking up jumper cables... he's your man.

Today's lesson in Boomer Tips involves a semi-hidden Facebook feature, which allows you to CUSTOMIZE YOUR FEED. I know, amazing, right? If only Facebook would let people KNOW you can do this, rather than expect you to find it. Oh well.

So, Smarty Pants Millennial Radio Guy... How Do We Fix It?

Note: We're doing this from a computer, as it is the easiest to do. However, most of the steps remain the same when using the Facebook app. If you run into issues, send us a message on the Station Facebook Page, and we can help you out.

Step 1: Navigate To The Brand Page

First, you need to pick the brand you wish to edit. We're using Cat Country 102.9 for this example, but it is IDENTICAL for all other brands (Not just Townsquare Media Station Pages).

Step 2: Click "Liked" On The Brand Page

Though, if it says "Like", it means you need to "Like" the page first. Then click "Liked".

Step 3: Edit your Brand-Specific News Feed Settings

Now that you clicked "Liked", the settings window appears and now allows you to modify the content you see from the brand itself. If you want to see MORE, set the brand as one of your "Favorites" as shown. Just click "Favorites".

You can also adjust notifications on Content, Videos, Live Streams, and any offers that come through Facebook from us at Townsquare Media.

Step 4: Click "Update", and you're done!

Don't see "Update"? You may need to slightly scroll in the window to make it appear.

But... you did it! Now you can adjust your Facebook feed to be how YOU want it, and not how the Zuck wants it.
