After seeing commercials advertising their Facebook FAN PAGE instead of the traditional website, I decided to do a little investigating.

I share with you two case studies where two companies are using Facebook Fan Pages to reach their customers,

and one is doing things just a bit different..

and it is making a MAJOR difference.

But,

Bottom line, if companies are spending mega bucks with prime time advertising..

pointing them to FACEBOOK, not a traditional website..

It might be time to take a look at Facebook for YOUR business purposes.

Checkout what I discovered..

Absolutely a Trend to Pay Attention To

It's so true Kristen.

So many large companies are jumping on the Facebook wagon.

Just yesterday I saw one company offer a $3 coupon if you went to their Facebook page. Not even a mention of their website.

Thanks for reminding us how important Facebook is becoming in our businesses.

Facebook Still Rocks!

What a great example of Facebook marketing trends. Some people say it's winding down, but the public is just getting started.

Facebook is Everywhere

Kristen,

This couldn't be more true... As I was browsing through store coupons yesterday.. Not to my surprise.. FB is showing up there too. Businesses are rocking FB, a new business trend is born. Thanks for pointing this out..

Great observation Kristen

Kristen, great work mate. Brillaint video and an eye opener to what major companies are doing. And the trend.

Many more major companies and kicking butt on facebook. In my city, in a magazine, at least 6 major companies are moving to facebook with some strategies.

It doesn't matter if one hasn't money for TV slot. There's community newsletters, magazines and newspapers, who if you got value, skills, can write free articles and lead them right to your facebook fan page.

Brillaintly done Kristen.

Facebook is Big

Right now Facebook is good for marketing. Google is too much competitive.
Your business should not be dependable from any of this social websites, it has to have it`s own proven system since you do not have control on them.

Great Value

They say that people are spending 1 billion minutes of facebook each day and 500million users on Facebook. And I have also read that it is in its infancy. Can you believe that!!! This is great value. Thank you for sharing.

Therese Catanzano — Wed, 10/06/2010 - 7:46am

Get their attention by being where they are!

The Statistics show that the average user spends 59 minutes per session on facebook, so these advertisers- which we will see more and more doing so- know that people are on facebook,

and they are more successful by keeping them on the site they love,

and that's why it's working.

Going to be pretty cool to watch where Facebook goes.

Facebook Is A Magnet

You are right, Facebook is the up and coming place to be and is drawing more people like a magnet each and every day. Another company that is using Facebook pages brilliantly is Victoria's Secret. Great video.

Great insight, Kristen

I've been driving as many people as possible to my FB page at http://www.facebook.com/pages/Dr-Dick-Inc/149560434855?v=app_4949752878. Why? Because I can capture visitors to my list, send blog posts there, etc. It's a great way to get attention. FB has a search engine in the works, too. They are going to dominate Google in the long run.

Way to Go!

Yes, FB is a real contender, for sure. I wonder if the new movie about FB has made it even more popular!?! Facebook is always changing, so people who utilize FB need to be aware that they need to make changes too, in order to keep up with it all!

Facebook Revolution

It is definitely smart to attract people to your FanPage. It is fascinating to see the difference in numbers when you have to like the page to take advantage of the offer. It will be interesting to see what happens with the new Facebook Groups too.

Interesting!

Thanks for the new info and a new way to set up a facebook fan page!

Jay Couture — Fri, 10/15/2010 - 5:25pm

Amazing

Kristen,
Thanks for sharing, I personally had no idea. Makes sense though when you think about it that these companies are going where the traffic already is right now. And the idea of a search feature would seriously challenge our friends over @ Google you would have to think.

Peter Grimes — Sat, 10/16/2010 - 3:53am

100% True

Kristen,

You are right on point. Actual recently Facebook over took Google as the most visited site. You actually seen this coming months ago before all the so called professional analyst reporting on this story.

Facebook is still going strong

Facebook is still going strong, even after so much time, offering a great opportunity for local businesses to promote their products for free. Every small business owner has a Facebook page dedicated to it these days and I am no exception. The first thing I did after having the Web design Tucson build an website for my business was to create its own Facebook page so I could make it known to as many people as possible.
