Overview

Ask supporters to post your message to Facebook and then track whether they've done it.  It's one of the easiest ways to spread your message to your supporters’ friends. 

Ask supporters to Post to Facebook

Note: If you haven’t already done so, you must first install the Action Plugin and then setup at least one Kit.
