Ed Talk TV Ep. 44: Vero – Are you ready for another social media platform?
Yes in last few days
It’s been around a while I heard
No, I haven’t!
I’ve seen it mentioned on FB the past few days.
It’s like facebook isnt it for making friends etc
You on vero uet?
No hun are you?
I’m just worried its another platform I won’t have time to manage
And that’s a valid point! It will be interesting to see where it goes.
There are issues with vero on sign up. Probably due to server issues and coping with the sudden influx of members just stick with it, it does work out in the end.
Good to know, thank you!
Are you currently using it? If so, I’m curious how are you liking it?
Ill be sorting mine out tomorow ive had a lot of info about it.
Vicki, yes! I only do FB right now.
People are fed up with Facebook bans and restrictions
Yup! And Facebook is changing too much all at once.
People are wanting to move over because they are fed up with the algorythm changes.
Ill send you my card when i do vicki 😊
Ill send you my card when i do vicki
Those would be my thoughts, Vicki
I actually have zero issues with the algorithm changes.
OK, I take that back… today I am seeing the same dozen or so posts over and over. They’re not new, and I haven’t reacted to or commented on them. Let it go, Facebook! 🤣

Erin Michael Miller that’s the worse! hence why people are spending less time on the platform

Oh no! Hopefully my FB stock doesn’t tank!
🤞 right!?
I wish I could pick ALL the people and pages I want to see instead of just a few “see first”
Visibility
I want to not be held hostage and forced to buy advertisement just to connect with the people who have already chosen to follow my business page.
Yes Mindy
Social media is a free platform. I want to see the information from pages ive liked. Not just what facebook thinks i want to see.
My facebook should work for me.
Yes Toni
You might be able to address this later, but here was my question from yesterday: I heard that FB posts with links get less visibility, they get buried. Have you heard of this?
I just want to see what I like from my friends and pages 1st. And the most recent posts 1st.
Im signing up to have a good nose and investigate.
Ugh, it already sounds like too much work. 🤣
Ugh, it already sounds like too much work.
The algorithm is pretty messed up. My MOM doesn’t see my stuff even though she has me set to “see first” and she’s an admin on my page and groups…
Oh gees! 🤦♂️ yeah that’s what I’m guessing by what I’m seeing/no seeing lol

Is this on VERO or FB with regards to the links
Right. Interesting …. but all these unknown questions might be why Vero is gaining traction …
Yes if you don’t put the link, you have to add an image. FB likes original images though so if you throw one together real quick it might help.
FB, Vicki Smith
I think FB trying to get away from the Politics stuff.
YES, Mindy Stephens my mother sees such random posts of mine. … I don’t think she even sees my live stuff which is kinda crazy
That’s crazy! 🙈
That’s crazy!

Thank you xx
Friends arent necessarily your audience
I just add people unless they are shady, if they get spammy I delete them lol.
Fighting talk 😂
Fighting talk
My desktop FB feed has been super slow loading lately… they must be doing something lol
It’s so frustrating especially on pages.
The pixelation
It reminds me of how you might add someone’s snapchat account
That V reminds me of another logo …. can’t place it tho
I’ve heard the servers have problems and deleting your info is difficult.
So glad you brought that up👏🏼
They should’ve posted this in User Testing 😂😂😂
They should’ve posted this in User Testing
The old Viacom logo …. that’s what that “V” in Vero reminds me of …..
Vistaprint Erica Rodriguez Maier
Check out Viacom’s Mindy (old logo) … super similar
How will it be monitored
How do they make money
How are they generating income?
True Erica! very close, but at least they add the “V” into their text 🙂
I heard its free to the first million users only dont know how true that is
YES! Right, Mindy?!
So they hope it’s gonna be big
Ah, creates a sense of urgency to join.
Maybe if it works
Prooooobably …. maybe … I dunno.
Yeah, would probably pay.
no because I don’t know how much I would even be on FB these days very much if I weren’t using it for business
For biz reasons, yes. For personal, no.
Yeah, I think so too!
right, so could you advertise business and just not pay for ads?
Erica I agree for business yes.
Whoa…
So I can’t sell unless I give them a cut?
So they want a fee like etsy
Hmmm … interesting …. Totally depends on the cut
I won’t pay and give them a cut too
Right!? It’s like one or the other.
Free to use, cut of your sales (low) fine 🤷♂️

True, depends on the cut
And then you’ll have to pay PayPal or Stripe too, unless it would be combined with the CC processing.
Thank you for bringing that up! 👏🏼
Thank you for bringing that up!
How can they even track/enforce that… review every post for links that might be selling something elsewhere…?
Great question.
Let me go lock down an account just in case😂😂

It’s kind of like how FB was cracking down on Direct Sales Parties. Putting people in FB jail for posting too much. They should have just had a fee…
There’s an idea 💡 I like that!
There’s an idea I like that!
You’re locked in Whitny!! LOL
😂😂😂😂😂 alright alright I’m in.
alright alright I’m in.
Would have to put all my product prices up
Yup cause all these fees determine the price of the product
Yes I have spreadsheets
i mean i would do it.
I going to looking it. It is better than teachable?
