As you know, at RebelMouse we are obsessed with sharing. We believe in the power of reciprocity on social -- meaning that the more you share + give back to the social ecosystem, the moreshares (aka engagement!) you will get in return.
Facebook has a really cool feature to help share videos with other pages. Think: Do you share content from the same pages a few times a week? Or, do you have your eye on pages that align with your brand that you could have a great sharing relationship with? Either way, experiment with Facebook crossposting.
Here's how it works.
You can find the “crossposting" option in the Settings tab of your Facebook page.
