    Hi everyone! New here to the forums hope everyone is having a great week.
    So I am getting into social media managing on the side but obviously i am going through a lot of training etc.
    I am doing a Facebook account for a restaurant that is friends of the family to learn etc.
    Yesterday i submitted a post to get people to "LIKE" the post and that we will be picking a certain amount of Random names who will get a discount off there bill.
    What i ran into last night is when i picked the people i cannot message them directly through the PAGE and cannot tag them in a post.

    Do you know is there another way to do this on facebook? The owner of the restaurant liked it and would like to do it again but the problem how can we let people know they were picked etc.

    Only way i was able to let them know was through my personal messaging through facebook which i do not want to do.

    Thanks everyone! hopefully this all makes sense ha

    Announce the person's name and ask them to get in touch either by message or by phone.

    That's what I thought but when I commented on the post trying to tag the people who won that didn't work. I would type there name out and I would select there name and it would be high lighted blue like normal. When I get done with all the names and hit enter to post the comment their not blue anymore and they are not tagged.

    You can use a Facebook app to do it, like Woobox.

    Thanks i tried woobox and thought it would work but there is no way of letting them who won. I still have to directly message them from my personal facebook account. Woobox was great for picking random people but no way of letting them know they won. Unless i am doing it wrong but i didn't see anything.

    There's a Brazilian app that does it, if you can handle portuguese, it's perfect for your need:
