13 Agenda What is Facebook for Business and why is it important? What is Social CRM? Customer transactions directly from your business page Q&A
14 What is Facebook for Business and Why Is It Important? Companies are discovering Facebook as a way to: Stay ahead of your competition Allow consumers to interact with your brand This is a long term marketing strategy as it takes time to build a community 500 Million Users – 110 Million + in the US Targeted user information including age, gender, location, likes Average user has 130 friends; 8 new friends a day; 55 min on the site per day Invited to 2 -3 events per month Facebook has a multiplier effect
Polling Question Does your company have a business page? Yes No If so, is it primarily used for: Sharing Information Encouraging engagement with the brand and with other customers/stakeholders Offering coupons and other promotions
16 Facebook for Business A Page is a place to house all the pertinent information about your company: 	- Overview of company- Website and contact info- Press releases- Videos- Blog RSS- Twitter updates- Company news and status- Customer interaction
17 Case Study: A Real ‘Fan’ Page Coca Cola Facebook page was created by two users who liked Coke - largest product fan page on Facebook. Coca Cola rewarded the fans by bringing them to Atlanta and giving them a tour of the Coke facility.  The fan page creators were asked to make a video of the history behind the fan page, and how Coke had reached out to them and rewarded them for this.  Key Takeaway: Taking over unsanctioned Facebook fan pages isn’t always the best idea.  Instead, rewarding dedication can inspire others to do the same.
