Editor's Notes

  • #4 Pages are used for businesses and brands to tell their story and share information on products, services and upcoming events. In order to create a page for a business, you must first have a real Facebook PROFILE. Do not start a PROFILE as a business or your account will be deleted along with all of your fans. Visit http://www.facebook.com/cmhouston?ref=search&sid=788562904.377584102..1#/cmhouston?v=wall&ref=search After you have set up your business page. You can start by inviting your friends to become fans. Only invite those that would have a genuine interest.
