Tip of the Week #78: Set a Weekly Reminder to Post in Local Facebook Groups

Looking for more leads from your local community? One effective (and free!) way to generate interest is by consistently posting in local Facebook groups. Here's how you can set up a recurring task in Gym Lead Machine to remind yourself to do this each week.

Step-by-Step: Create a Recurring Task to Post in Facebook Groups

  1. From your Gym Lead Machine dashboard, click into the Contacts section.
  2. Select Tasks from the menu.
  3. In the top right corner, click Add Task.

Set Up Your Facebook Group Reminder

  1. Title your task something like: Post to Facebook Groups .

    In the Description box, paste the URLs of the Facebook groups where you want to post.

    • To find the URL, just go to the Facebook group, copy the link from your browser, and paste it into the description field.
    • You can also add labels or notes, like the group name, for clarity.
  2. Toggle on "Recurring Task" and set it to repeat weekly—choose the day that works best for you.
  3. Assign the task to yourself, then click Save.

How It Works

Each week, you’ll get a notification in Gym Lead Machine when it’s time to post. Just open the task, click the group link, and drop in your latest offer, transformation story, or helpful tip. This quick habit can lead to a steady flow of local leads.


Pro Tip: Keep your posts value-driven—not just promotional. Share success stories, helpful advice, or ask engaging questions to spark interaction.

That's it for this week’s tip! Stay consistent, and your local presence will grow.
