By Stavros Georgiadis


If your business isn't making the money you would like it to make, maybe it's time for a fresh marketing blitz, and Facebook is a great venue for that. Facebook can quickly catapult your business to success. Keep reading to learn some very helpful tips.

Always response remarks posted on your wall to offer fans a feeling of hookup with you. Look at your wall daily, and look out if someone tags you in an article. Make sure to reply to all questions or issues.

Creating a contest for your Facebook page is something that you can have some success with. Give away a desirable product to get people excited. Let people know who won by announcing it on your profile, and use this strategy again if you wish to get additional subscribers later on.

One important thing you have to do is to develop a Facebook fan base that's solid. Don't focus investing too much into promotions or marketing products until you have around 5,000 fans. After that, you are sure to see a big jump in conversion rates.

Attempt developing a group instead of a page. The team could lead to a neighborhood on Facebook, where your clients can exchange comments and suggestions. You can take advantage of a group and a web page in tandem to keep individuals interested and interacting.

Take time to answer questions and respond to comments posted on your wall. You should always dedicate some time to make contact with people who have taken the initiative to get in touch with your business. Answer Facebook inquiries as swiftly as you answer a telephone when it rings.

You don't want to be sharing updates that are not actually related to your own content. It might not be of interest to your followers to hear about your personal life or an unrelated news happening. Post anything of a personal nature using your individual Facebook profile.

Any company which only deals with a customer once in a while, such as a car dealer or a real estate agent, does NOT need a Facebook business page. This is because customers are random so they likely will not follow daily posts. Invest in ads targeted for Facebook instead.

A group is a great idea for a company. This can only be a one-stop shop where people can ask questions and customers are able to chat with one another. Tell them about sales, coupons or interesting articles. You can quickly get to know some of your customers.

Allow your customers to rate the quality of your product. Those who have interest in what you're offering enjoy seeing reviews from past customers. Having customers post about their experience is a great way to entice prospective customers.

You may find some difficulty the first few weeks of using Facebook. An easy way to get going is to put a Facebook button on your web page. This gives your customers a way to find your page that isn't intrusive like Flash ads or floating banners. When they "like" your business on Facebook, you will be able to easily update them on happenings in your business.

There is no harm in asking fans to share what you post. Offering an incentive such as a discount when they share will help you gain more subscribers. You can hand out your incentives after your subscriber goal is met.
