Driving Fans to Your Facebook Page




What is the purpose of having a Facebook fan page is you don't have any fans? Here are some suggestions to increase your fan base on Facebook:

  • Add a "Find us on Facebook" link to your email signature
  • Ask your Facebook friends to become fans of your business page
  • Send an email to your database of clients and ask them to become fans (Constant Contact is great for this)
  • Offer special savings/deals to your Facebook fans
  • Ask colleagues to recommend your Facebook fan page to their friends and fans

A great new gadget to add fans is a feature offered by Facebook for your website or blog (I've added it to my blog above). It provides a glimpse to your Facebook page and allows people to become fans directly from your website. Facebook provides a few lines of code that can be added to your website by your Web Master.

Here is an example of Coca-Cola's website using this feature: http://www.coca-cola.com/index.jsp

Here is Herbal Essensces website: http://www.herbalessences.com/us/default.jsp

Is your head spinning? It can be overwhelming but don't think you have to do everything at once. Maybe try one of my suggestions a week and see how it goes for you.
