10 Tips on Facebook

•   Use FB to design business cards
•   Hide apps, or games
•   “View as”
•   Hide what you read
•   Write back
•   Don‟t oversell
•   Moderate comments/hide spam
•   Focus on engagement, not likes
•   Be visual (photos)
•   Profile – completely filled out
Facebook Graph Search



                WHO ?
Why are some FB Page more popular?
“excerpts from a very popular consumer brand manager”



•             advertising on Facebook‟s platform
    Buy targeted

• Leverage your offline networks (TV/newspaper/magazine ads, etc.)

• Run a contest/promotion offline of Facebook, yet encourage users to
    become a fan during the promotion process (since there is quite a bit of red tape to
    actually run promotions on Facebook fan pages themselves)
•                 exclusively on your Facebook fan page
    Create content published

• Frequently make special offer announcements and even new product
    announcements through facebook first
• Hire a community manager                  to implement ongoing growth opportunities
    across all your social channels
• Buy Google ads to drive traffic directly to your Facebook fan page
• End your press releases with your Facebook fan page link

• Provide talking points to publicized team members to say become a fan in
  Facebook during interviews
