- FB is for INTERACTION. Making connections.
- First you have to build your page. With the new Timeline redesign, you can express your business’s identity in ways that you never could. We really tried to build a place that’s like your store front on the web. The cover photo expresses your identity and brand, and the content on the timeline reflects what’s happening with your business on a daily basis. It’s not static like a web-site. Instead it changes on regular basis as new things happen with your business. This is the way you can reach your connections and engage your customers, prospects, and their friends in a conversation.
- You can set up FB to automatically pull in news from other social sources so FB becomes the hub for your company’s news and updates.
- This is the first thing people will see when they visit your Page. Choose a unique photo (851 x 315pixels) and change it as often as you like. Some examples might include a popular menu item, album artwork, or a picure of people using your product. Be creative and experiment withimages your audience responds well to.* Set milestones to define your key moments over time. Examples of milestones include reaching a certain number of fans, opening a new store, or winning an award. Dimensions for milestone photos are 843 x 403 pixelsAnchor the most important story to the top of your Page for up to seven days.The admin panel appears at the top of all Pages you manage. It offers a quick snapshot of who you should respond to, and gives you access to your Page and post performance. View notifications, Page Insights, and edit your content here. You can also hide and expand the admin panel from view.Respond to people when they message you privately

- FB enables pay per click advertising – very easy to setupComScore report on Effectiveness of FB Advertising – early June 2012
- The same principles apply to FB ads as to traditional ad formats – magazines, TV, Radio. FB Study of professional marketers evaluating over 400 FB ads for effectiveness.
- Good ad - This ad includes many of the elements Facebook says are key to driving performance. It has a strong focal point (the image) and a strong brand link (AT&T is clearly identified as the advertiser). The tone hews to the AT&T brand tone. And there are two "rewards": the happy family makes the viewer feel happy, and the promise of saving money draws the reader in.
- This ad falls down on a number of criteria. It doesn't have a strong focal point, and it takes some effort to identify the Disney as the brand. The tone is fine, but it doesn't have a strong "reward."
