Introduction

Maximizing your time and effort is key in boosting your social media presence, and one effective tactic to achieve this is through inviting friends to groups or pages you manage or own. However, doing this manually can be very time-consuming and even counter-productive. To help you save time, you can make use of the Invite Tool offered by SU Social, which is currently available for Facebook and LinkedIn.

One way to enhance your online presence on social media platforms like Facebook and LinkedIn is to utilize the Invite Tool provided by SU Social. This tool streamlines the process of inviting both friends and non-friends to your Groups and Pages. Not only does it save you time, but it also extends your reach by inviting those who have already shown interest in your Pages through likes on posts.

✅ The Invite Tool does not restrict you to only inviting friends to Groups and Pages that you own or manage. You have the option to include friends to Groups that you’ve joined and Pages that you’ve added manually.

How to access the Invite Tool

To start utilizing the Invite Tool, navigate to the Tools page and select either your Facebook or LinkedIn account. Alternatively, you can click on the “MORE TOOLS” link and then go to the “Invite” tab to access the tool.

At first glance on the Facebook Invite tab, you will see that it is subdivided into four tabs

  1. Add Friends to Groups
  2. Add Emails to Groups
  3. Invite Friends to Pages/Events
  4. Invite From Page Post Likes
  5. Invite Page Fans To Groups

Add Friends to Groups (for Facebook and LinkedIn)

If you want to grow your groups, you go to this sub-tab.  This is where you can select the friends you want to add to your groups.  The Add Friends to Groups tab is comprised of 4 main parts; Run Timers, Invite Friends to Groups Settings, Groups Table and Friends Table.

Run Timers

This is the part where you control the behavior of the tool.  Here you can:

Invite Friends to Groups Settings

This portion of the settings is where you specify the extent and limitation of the tool.

  1. You can choose the total number of friends you want to add to your groups per day and you can opt to gradually increase that number until it hits the maximum number you favor.
