There are really only THREE STEPS:
BUILD Find people interested in your products or service
ENGAGE Capture information with an ethical bribe for name & email address
Stay in touch and create a valuable exchange
AMPLIFY Post content not adverts, e.g. articles, blogs, comments, etc.

Why a Facebook Business Page?
Long-term marketing asset - more Likes & Comments mean more newsfeeds appearances
Ask questions and obtain instant feedback from customers, peers & prospects
Be seen as a ‘trusted adviser’ and an authority in your industry (thought leadership)
Build loyalty and strengthen relationships
Create a permanent audit trail of activity - crucial for testimonials & referrals
Capture new leads & increase your following - 85% of fans are not local to their businesses
Generate awareness, leverage recommendations and word of mouth
Reach markets you may not otherwise have access to
The more active your business appears to be the more you will be seen as open & honest

6. Soci@lite
Differences between a Page and a Profile?
Pages offer more robust features for businesses & brands
Pages have Likes not friends
Likes only count from an individual NOT a Page
You may only create Pages for organisations of which you are an authorised representative
Fans cannot see your Profile (unless you make yourself a Featured Administrator)
Pages are not separate Facebook accounts, merely different entities on the site
You can add Administrators to help you manage your Page (with a separate log-in)
7. Soci@lite
Take advantage of tools & features that Profiles don’t offer
Treat your Page as a stand-alone website and build on it via participation
Set up a welcome section so people know what they can expect from following you
Enable followers to sign-up to your Newsletter/contact list
Create Facebook events - invitations will not be restricted to just your existing contacts
Utilise Facebook’s free widgets and Apps (e.g. Like/Share buttons)
Facebook Adverts – you can set an infinitesimal daily budget for this
Express your identity with features like Cover Photo and Page timeline
Reach & Engage your audience on the web and on mobile
Respond to people in a more personal way
8. Soci@lite
What should you Post to Facebook?
Like all Social Media, Facebook interaction is ultimately about solving readers problems
Posting wins when it’s full of passion and helpful information
Make personal stories into lessons - People do business with People
Resources your customers find helpful, such as reviews and links
Tutorials or ‘How To’ articles
Calls to Action/Ethical Bribes, e.g. Download free e-book or attend a webinar
Frequently asked questions
Reviews of industry trends
Products/Service price comparisons

Editor's Notes
Facebook is fundamentally about relationships. The people who like your Page are saying that they want a relationship with you. This connection allows you to build and deepen relationships with your most loyal customers and allows them to spread the word about your brand to their friends. Because of the information people share about themselves on Facebook, you can create highly custom and personalized experiences to drive engagement and loyalty over time.
