How To Create A Poll on A Facebook Group
Facebook supports adding a poll to your Facebook Group, and this way you can collect responses from your group members. I’m in my group called “The Six Figure Online Hustle” also known as “Make Money With Alicia” and I’d love for you to join this group.
So here’s how we do it, I’ll go to “Write something” and I’ll click on that.
Now, it’s going to give me all these different options of what I can write if I press this “3 dots” on more.
I’m gonna choose and click the “Poll” option, so I can add a Poll.
I’ve written down some questions already and I’ll be adding these to our Poll.
Here’s our Poll.
This is your headline. This is where you’ll put in your questions.
And now, I have the different options for the Poll. Click “Add Option” to add another one. I have 5 options tools for entrepreneurs here.
One of the things I’m going to do to get my polls started is tagging people who are in the group.
Click this profile icon to start tagging people.
Type in the name of the people you want to tag in the search bar and click them.
These are the people I’ve tagged, click “Done” when you’re finished tagging.
This will help people see it to get the poll started.
Click “Post” to continue.
When they do vote on it, you’ll see their face/profile on the right side. You can hover over to see who it is and see what they voted for.
They can vote for more than one or they can just vote for one.
Poll Results After 3 Hours
Here is the result of my Poll after a few hours. As I am creating new courses for my students, I definitely know what they want to learn about.
If I want to pin it, I’ll just click these 3 dots at the upper right corner to pin it to the top. Also if I have the email addresses of my group members, I can email them and let them know that a Poll is in the group and I’ll get more votes on the Poll or tag more group members to get more action on the Poll.
