Facebook Marketing For Beginners: The best ways to Make 
The Most Of Social Media 
Facebook marketing is somewhat self-explanatory in how helpful it is, what with the prevalence of 
Facebook in every day life. By taking advantage of something that people regularly view in their free 
time, you can tap into a market that would be hard to reach otherwise. Read these tips to make the 
most of Facebook marketing. 
Integrate your Facebook page with your other campaigns. Place links to your Facebook page on your 
blog, website and in the signature of your professional emails. You should draw attention to your 
Facebook page by presenting it as a way to get access to exclusive content and more promotional 
offers. 
Offering contests is an effective way to increase your fan base. Prizes will open the eyes of potential 
customers out there. Be sure that you come through in awarding your prize, or no one will trust you 
again. 
Think of Facebook as a dialogue. A lot of people when they begin Facebook marketing, talk AT their 
audience. You need to talk WITH your audience. Feel like you are having a conversation with them, 
not like you are announcing things to them. Remember, Facebook is a social medium. You need to be 
social. 
Do not hesitate to share links to other sites on Facebook. If you come across an article or a video 
your audience will be interested in, think about sharing it on Facebook. It is best to avoid sharing 
links to website you are in competition against or you could lose customers. 
Remember the customers you already have. Some marketers focus on getting new subscribers 
instead of taking care of their exist audience. If you want your Facebook marketing to pack more 
power, then make your audience feel respected. This can help your brand earn real engagement, so 
do not forget about your champions! 
Use the custom tabs to maximize your Facebook marketing efficiency. Tabs will give you the 
opportunity to organize information on your page. For example, if you are holding a contest, you can 
include a tab for the contest information. 
Never, ever, EVER pay for Facebook fans! Facebook can tell if your fans are engaged in your page or 
not, and the more fans you have who don't check out your page, the worse your EdgeRank will be. 
You want fans who really are interested in your products, so let them come naturally.
Use tools to measure the power of your Facebook 
marketing. There are all sorts of tools out there these 
days to help give you an idea of how potent your 
Facebook marketing is. You could take a look at 
something like Sprout Social as a paid service or 
simply check out your Klout score to see if your efforts 
seem to be http://fbmarketinghowto.com/ moving the 
needle. 
Give your audience spots to sign up on the Facebook 
page. Having potential customers sign up Virginia 
Hangouts Marketing and provide you with contact 
information means you'll have the ability to continue 
to interact with them. Contents and giveaways are a great idea.

Post videos on your facebook page. Depending on the business that you are in you could customize 
your video ideas accordingly. For example, if you sell a product, you could post a video that explains 
how to use the product, or a video showing why your product is better than the rest. 
Use polls to engage your audience and get great marketing tips. If you see that a lot of people are 
not liking one of your marketing methods, it may be time for a change. This is a great way to find out 
what your users love and try your best to give it to them. 
Use Facebook "likes" to your advantage on your profile page. Whatever incentive you have to offer 
to get them, the more "likes" you have, the better your business will be perceived by onlookers. This 
will increase your overall popularity on Facebook and make any campaign you hold that much more 
effective.

how to use the product, or a video showing why your product is better than the rest. 
Consider developing a Facebook app if your subscribers are likely to use this feature. A good app 
should be fun to use and valuable to your audience. You could for instance develop a game based on 
your products or provide your subscribers with an interactive catalog. Measure the interest of your 
audience for apps before getting started with this project. 
Do not try to use your personal Facebook page to attract fans. This is not a good idea because 
personal users have friend limits that business users don't. You don't want someone to try to join 
your page only to be told that you have reached your limit. They probably won't come back to try 
another time. 
Don't let Facebook negativity bring your brand down. It's tough facing negativity. The immediate 
response, if you follow through, is often defensiveness or negativity in return. That won't help your
Facebook marketing. You need to approach negativity with poise. Take the higher road and respond 
politely and meaningfully. Your fans will take notice. 
Show your customers that you care by highlighting causes on your wall. This can really build your 
relationship as they see your business as a caring, kind entity. You can run contests or events which 
offer a donation to the cause in exchange for a like or entering contact information. 
Many people tend to follow "trends" they read or hear about in regards to Facebook marketing 
because they are lazy. Thankfully, this article isn't about trends, but solid marketing advice. The 
advice you've received in this article will provide you with a solid path to profitability through the 
increased effectiveness of your marketing campaign.
