Facebook and Your Business?

Are you using Facebook to market your business?  This is a question I recently posed on LinkedIn.  I got many different responses, but Facebook seems to be the natural way to market your business instead of the old fashioned way of distributing flyers, cold-calling, and doing the rounds of businesses that may help you.

As Facebook enters it's second set of 500+ million users world wide, Facebook is one of the best arenas to get yourself recognised, known and respected, with due diligence not to post too much personal content.  That is also why I have a personal page and a business Facebook page.

However, Facebook is for some, a very personal environment, for me it is both.  On my business Facebook page, I can interact with my clients, potential clients, while letting them see that I am indeed also human, but also have useful information that they may value once they think about potentially buying a new home.  I can include links to homes for sale, pertinent market information, interest rate updates, what maybe happening in certain areas of my city, and Facebook, after all, is a free forum.  If used correctly, I believe it is a great way to interract and generate interest in my business of real estate.

Here's to another 500 million users, all potential clients and friends, on Facebook!
