difference for your company.

Ask other people that you know for advice regarding Facebook if you are new to it. Facebook hasbeen around for many years now, and thanks to this, many people have learned a great deal abouthow to effectively optimize a page on the site. You will likely be surprised at how much there is tolearn.

Use Facebook to get some feedback from your fans. You could for instance share a poll to find outwhich product your fans prefer. Generate some interest for your Facebook marketing campaign byinvolving your subscribers in decisions regarding launching new products. Create a poll to find outwhat kind of products your subscribers would like to see in the future.

Pay attention to the application boxes thatare just under the cover photo on yourpage. It is possible to make little appsthat will direct users to your actualwebsite or to your Twitter page, forexample. You can even change up thepictures on the boxes, allowing you to putyour unique stamp on things.

Stay relative to your brand or niche whenever you post content to your Facebook marketing page.People visit your profile expecting to see pretty much the same topic discussed on a regular basis. Ifyou tend to stray, they will never know what to expect and that can cost you viewership.

Don't relay too much on automation. It can be very tempting to automate your Facebook posting.More posts are better, right? That's not always the case. People can sense an automated post,especially if all you post are links to stories from around the web. You won't be building any sort ofengagement between your audience and your brand.

Respond to all comments that are left for you. This not only means to respond to people whocomment on your profile, but the comments in your inbox too. This will take a lot of hard work andeffort on your part, but your users will really appreciate this personal touch.

Post a "just for fun" post every so often. Not every post you write needs to be officially about yourbrand. People want to see that there are humans behind these fan pages. Every so often give themsomething that shows that you are. Repost a popular meme or something else that's slightly randomto your brand, yet still tasteful.

Don't ignore direct questions from your fans. You've got to remember that being social is at thecenter of Facebook. If you tend to ignore direct comments and continue to post solely informationalposts, then you are missing golden promotional opportunities. The more engaged you make yourcurrent fans, the more likely they'll be to pass on the word about you.

Use a large picture on your business' Facebook page. You want your brand to stand out whensomeone stumbles across your page, and a large image is the best way to accomplish this goal. Thelargest image you can use can be 200pix wide x 600pix high, so be sure to put that size to full use.

As discussed, Facebook offers you unlimited sales potential through customer contact. Now that you
