    The Social Media Duality: Tool of Destruction? Or Growth?

    HEALTH 
    I'd like to reiterate that social media is a TOOL. This thread advocates deleting social media. https://www.thefastlaneforum.com/community/threads/young-fastlaners-shut-down-all-social-media.108282/ My agreement depends on how the tool is used. You can use social media to hammer you over the...

    Are Facebook Groups Dead?

    MARKETING 
    Hey Fastlaners! I’ve seen guys like @Andy Black and @Fox talk a lot in the past about the power of Facebook Groups. I’ve scoured the forum and a lot of these threads are several years old - and we all know how quickly social media moves! Recently I have built up a decent Discord community...

    The only solution to Facebook ads performance drop that worked for me (it's not TikTok)

    MARKETING 
    The ongoing privacy-related updates by Apple after iOS 14.5 have pretty much killed Facebook ads. This means Facebook’s data and tracking abilities are that much worse. This is why you see your ROAS is down, CPMs are up, Reach is declining, and conversions are decreasing. So how do you adapt...

    SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING 
    I cannot stress this enough. Stop trying to make social media your business when it simply is a marketing channel. I mentioned this before, by back in the day I was growing the TMF FB page at a great clip. Then suddenly, FB stop showing my posts and continually nagged me to "pay to play" ...

    Why iOS 14.5 Didn't Kill Facebook Ads Tracking

    SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING 
    Forums and blog posts keep saying that iOS 14.5 killed facebook ad tracking, I'm posting this to explain why that's not the case. To investigate I went to the source (the apple dev docs) and deciphered them so you don't have to. Almost everyone is tapping 'Ask App not to Track' so why isn't...

    SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING 
    I remember once reading the quote along the lines of 'the best way out of a difficulty is through it'. It definitely helped me a lot in the past. Sometimes fear stops you doing the most natural thing to do, which combines your purpose, what you're good at, and what there's a demand for. I...
