Here are just a few Facebook marketing tools below.
5 Hidden Facebook Marketing Tools
1. Facebook Messenger
Let’s start with something obvious and often overlooked by many, including some marketers—Facebook Messenger.
Even though Facebook Messenger is the second most popular mobile messaging app, not many marketers take advantage of its use. Some find it troublesome to use, while others do not see its value for marketing. Thus, if you also think the same, let this list of statistics change your mind.
- Reach 50% to 80% more users than organic Facebook marketing campaigns.
- Receive 20% clickthrough rates, especially when using chat blasting.
- Get 4 to 5 times conversion rates than Facebook desktop ads.
- 30% to 50% cheaper than Facebook ad campaigns.
With these numbers, where else do you think you can get this kind of Facebook engagement for free? Only on Facebook Messenger, which is why you should consider using it as part of your Facebook marketing strategy today!
2. Comment Guard
Have you ever not heard of “comment guard” before? If not, then you should know that it is a feature on Facebook Messenger for marketing purposes. With this, you can automatically add new contacts to your contact list when someone leaves a comment on one of your Facebook marketing campaign posts.
To help you understand how comment guard works, take a look at the picture below.

3. Click-To Messenger Ads
Click-to-Messenger ads are like any regular Facebook ad but with a twist. Users can see it anywhere around Facebook, such as News Feeds and Stories, and when someone is on it, they get redirected to Facebook Messenger.
Take this picture as an example.
