Invite a Facebook user to Like a Company Page

[Brando16]

Hi All,

Was looking at our Facebook company page last night and was going through our recent posts and noticed that the individuals that liked our posts had an "Invite" button next to their name.

I've been testing this and is it true that I can only send an Invite to like my company page if I'm actually friends with the user? The "Invite" button is there for every individual that has liked a post on our page, but I've only had success sending the invite to people I'm connected with.

The frustrating thing about this is that the button changes to "Invited" regardless of whether or not they have actually received the invite.

Hi Brandon!

I've been using and loving this feature on Facebook.

From my experience, you're able to invite any and every person who reacts to your content on Facebook. I've seen great success with it since launch, and it has certainly given us a huge boost to our followers. These are not people that are friends with the admin on Facebook; these are just engaged users.

As for the "invited" issue, I have sent people an invite, but they may not have clicked the notification. I've had my team test it out for me, and it seems that it gives a notification for the user to like the page. Whether or not they click that notification and follow-through is on them. If they haven't received the invite, I would have them update the app. If that doesn't work, I'd check their business support forum for further help.
