Facebook for Business | Episode 17

Many companies may be hesitant about using Facebook as a business tool due to the largely personal content that pervades this giant social media entity. Its difficult to ignore, however, that Facebook users number in the hundreds of millions and grows at a rate of about 800,000 new users every single day. Additionally, Facebook seems to welcome the business community by making access to users for commercial purposes a bit “kinder and gentler.”

In this podcast episode, I will take excerpts from Jason Levy’s book, “Facebook for Business” to make a case for establishing a company presence on the “second most used search engine” in the world – Facebook. I will also go through the basic steps for establishing a Facebook Page, the evolution from the old Fan Pages.

Finally, there is a PDF copy of the presentation for this episode in the Membership Area. By the way, the presentation document contains a special section not contained in the podcast, that provides instructions on utilizing a powerful new tool – Facebook Ads. To become a member (still free to join), just fill in the short form at the top right of the home page, then the “Members” tab will appear among the navigation buttons.

Thanks and enjoy!

Have you heard of the “Middle Income Model”? Its what most of us here in the United States have been taught. Tell me if this sage advice sounds familiar: Learn a trade or profession, work for 25 to 30 years, then retire on an income that is less than what we were making in the peak of our career. Sounds like a winner, right? Wrong! Statistics show that this model doesn’t work, since very few people retire in self-sufficiency or prosperity. An alternative to the Middle Income Model is to become an entrepreneur and start your own small business. Although the advantages are huge, there are also disadvantages. Listen in on the rest of the Episode, and see if you wish to pursue an entrepreneurial track.
