These days, a Facebook
fan page for a business is like adding oxygen to a fire. Take away the
oxygen and the fire goes out. Similarly, businesses who do not use Facebook are
denying their business the oxygen it needs to grow and succeed.
Without Facebook, your business is missing out on an untapped
source of new customers who probably do not even know that you exist. If that is
not enough to convince you that Facebook marketing is essential, here are three
massive benefits of social media for business:
1. Get ahead of your competitors. If you are not using Facebook for
business, we can guarantee that your competitors are. Do not let them get to
your customers first! Use Facebook to build loyalty with your current clients
and spread your brand message to new customers. Do not follow your competitors'
moves, get on Facebook and get ahead!
2. So simple, but so effective. Although creating and maintaining a
really interesting and engaging Facebook page is a lot of work, it makes it easy
for clients to engage with your business. In a sense, that is the key to
Facebook - making your business more accessible. It is not about you, it is
about creating a venue for your clients to engage with you, on their own turf.
Never before has there been such an opportunity for your customers or clients to
engage with you on a personalized level - so do not miss out!
3. If you are not on Facebook for business purpose, you do not
exist. Business owners sometimes forget that many people today grew up with the
Internet. They do not remember a time when you did not have access to the world
wide web 24/7. This means that they expect businesses to be on some Social Media
and definitely, on Facebook. They expect to engage and interact with businesses
in a way that was inconceivable 10 years ago. If you do not offer them the
chance to interact and engage with them, what do they do? They simply go to a
competitor who is offering them those modern and fun facilities. If you do not
then you will not get their business.
4. Facebook Pages are like Mini-sites. When you create a page you
can easily add all the different social media elements. When you don't want to
spam your main website with a bunch of social icons, feeds and other content,
having a page on Facebook is a great alternative. You get the benefit of having
a website inside of Facebook without having to display as much content. It's
also a great way for smaller companies who don't have a website to make a simple
site using Facebook.
5. It makes you Real. Since Facebook is a social media site, users
that like your page have real faces and profiles. They like your page with their
personal account which makes your company more personal. This is a great way to
connect with people in a way that larger companies don't always get the chance
to. People who like your page have it displayed on their wall which means that
their whole network sees they liked something. This is advertising in a whole
new way. Your company name gets out there when it otherwise wouldn't.
6. Your business gets found faster. When you type a big name
company into Google search engines accompanied with the word "face", you will
almost always get the company name and the word "Facebook". Google tends to rank
Facebook fan pages with priority so it's common to have fan pages show up above
on the on the first page of search results with the company website.
These are just a six great reasons to use Facebook for your company. Big and
small companies alike can benefit from using these mini-sites for advertisement
with zero expense.
