Facebook Page Marketing

Do you need help with your Facebook page or you have been thinking about starting one to promote your business and communicate with your followers? Facebook is a social media website where people can interact on a personal level. It is focused on friendship and shared interests. As a business, you can use Facebook to increase sales. You can drive visitors to your website and email newsletter list and encourage interaction by posting updates to your wall, posting on other pages and sending updates (direct messages) to all followers, which appear in their Facebook inbox.

Facebook offers two ways to interact with groups of people: a group or a page. A group is designed for interaction between all members, where people will contribute regularly. A page is more of a broadcasting medium, like a web page, where you are the main one generating content. Most businesses will benefit from a page where they can post updates, links, photos and invite people to events.

For more details about how small businesses can use social media, like Facebook, Twitter and YouTube, to SEO their website and increase sales, please read my article about Facebook for small business.

Twitter Marketing

Twitter is a public arena where you can make very short updates as often as you like. These updates are known as ‘tweets’. These updates can be read by your followers, other people browsing Twitter or via feeds on websites all over the Internet (some feeds will broadcast tweets with certain keywords). The best way to build a Twitter following is to tweet, retweet and reply to others on Twitter. Spending 5 to 10 minutes at day on Twitter is a good way to get started. You can even link Twitter with a Telstra mobile phone or access it via 3G on any mobile internet-enabled device. So get out there today and start interacting.

It takes time to build up followers, but social media has a way of helping you along moreso than email marketing.
