page as soon as they’re

The Cover is the first thing
people see when they visit
your brand page, so it’s vital
you choose an image that
captures the essence of
your brand and leaves a
lasting impression.
A cover image cannot
contain price or purchase
information, contact
information, reference to
Facebook site features e.g.
Like or a call to action.

- 9. Views and Apps
Photos, Videos, Events and custom Facebook apps appear
below the Cover, making navigation easier.
Whilst you can change the order in which items appear, Photos
will always occupy the first position on the left.
Brands can no longer land visitors who aren’t fans of the page
on a custom welcome app.
For campaign apps, we recommend using a Page Post ad as
well as pinning a post with a link to the custom campaign app.

Until now brands have struggled with important messages
being pushed out of view as a result of fan posts. But in
pinned posts we have a great solution to this.
Fixed to the top of the
page for up to seven
days, pinned posts are a
great way to highlight
important content for
people to see.

- 14. Messages for Pages
Facebook have moved a step closer to allowing brands to
have a 1 on 1 conversation with a person. But, there’s a
catch. The person has to initiate the conversation using
Messages for Pages.
Messages between a person and a
brand are private and do not appear
in newsfeeds.
In fact, Mango PR have already noticed people are
choosing to use Messages for customer service
including complaints, rather than airing these matters
publicly.
A person does not need to like the page in order to use
Messages for Pages.

When people visit a page, they’ll see what their friends and people they subscribe to are saying about it.
Friend Activity uses social validation tactics to help
people make up their mind about a brand, based
on what they think of their friends who like the
page and their interactions with the brand.

Universities.

- 22. Reach Generator
In March 2011, comScore stated brands may only reach
16% of their fans on Facebook each week.
The Reach Generator guarantees brands reach 75% of their
fans each month and an estimated 50% of fans each week
in a simple, always-on way.
Facebook recommend brands post once a day to maximise
their reach. In my opinion, this recommendation is to help
the Reach Generator work optimally, but I would urge
caution as posting daily will most likely annoy people.
The Reach Generator is not yet available in New Zealand.
