If you have been trying to think of a new way to increase revenue and exposure for your business, look no further than Facebook marketing. With a great profile and consistent interaction with the friend-base, you can rapidly improve your company's bottom line. Use the tips in the following article to turn your business around!



Take the time to fill out your Facebook profile with useful information and more details about your brand. Add a link to your website and write a brief description of your brand or products. Use a visitor counter to get an idea of how many visitors follow this link to access your homepage.



Do not sign up for a Facebook account and expect the name of your brand to speak for itself. Even if the brand you are marketing is fairly well established, you still need to do work to make it even more popular. Failing to do this may result in you losing some of your fans.



If you're using Facebook to market, make sure you're also posting there! No one will visit a page which rarely ever has updated content on it. Don't overwhelm your followers, but be sure to post at least once per weekday so that people will often check back just to see what's going on.



You can build value for your Facebook campaign by using this platform to share exclusive content. Give some specific examples of the kind of exclusive content your subscribers have access to. You could for instance use Facebook to share some coupon codes or let your subscribers know about the new products you have not released yet.



Think of Facebook as a dialogue. A lot of people when they begin Facebook marketing, talk AT their audience. You need to talk WITH your audience. Feel like you are having a conversation with them, not like you are announcing things to them. Remember, Facebook is a social medium. You need to be social.



Do not post so much on your Facebook page that people will begin to feel too saturated by you. You want to give them something to think about, so let a little space flow in between each posting. Facebook recommends new page owners post no more than once or twice a week.



Consider using Facebook advertising. By paying for Facebook ads, you can reach a larger audience by targeting specific demographics. This can get your Facebook page a lot of attention, and that's important. Try it out for a while and then cancel it if it does not seem to be working.



Try using a call-to-action graphic to convert visitors to your page into followers of your page. This will encourage people to "like" your page in order to receive some discount or content. When people come to your page, all they see is "like our page for more info", then after they like the page, they can see the content.



Create infographics. Infographics are a step up from pictures, and include information and relevant information that can be useful to your target market. When you create an infographic, it is even more likely to be shared by others because the information is valuable. This raises your profile, but it also makes you look like an expert.



Share pictures on Facebook. Keep in mind that your subscribers check Facebook to see updates shared by their friends. If your subscribers have a lot of friends on Facebook, your updates might not be easy to notice. Getting their attention will be a lot easier if you share pictures rather than text updates.



Integrate your campaign across multiple platforms. You want your branding, your site's look and feel, to be consistent across your Facebook page, your website, your Twitter page, your YouTube channel, and so on. Consistent branding will make visitors feel more at home on all your business's advertising platform, and therefore encourage more use of all the platforms.



Stay active on your Facebook page. Using Facebook to market your business is more than simply setting up a profile and hoping people find it randomly. You need to stay active on your page and post status updates, pictures and respond to comments and questions on a regular basis.



Organize a contest on Facebook. You should encourage your subscribers to tag you in one of their updates, for instance to share a picture of the product they bought or a review of a product. Give a free product to the entry that receives the most votes so contestants encourage their friends to vote on their entry.



Offer special items to give away to those that Like your page. You could offer a small sample of your product or something as simple as an Mp3. They key is to entice people to like your page, as once they do they will be alerted when you post anything new on your page.



It is much easier for you to lose followers than it is for you to gain them, so keep this in mind when you are marketing. Avoid doing anything people may find offensive. Once they are gone, it is pretty much a good bet that they will not be doing any more business with you in the future.



Post a "just for fun" post every so often. Not every post you write needs to be officially about your brand. People want to see that there are humans behind these fan pages. Every so often give them something that shows that you are. Repost a popular meme or something else that's slightly random to your brand, yet still tasteful.



Include your logo in your profile photo on your Facebook business page. Don't change it too frequently as it is what your fans will associate with your brand, therefore highlighting your posts in their news feed. If you continually change it, they may become confused and ignore your posts.



Using Facebook as a marketing tool is practically a necessity in today's business environment. Hopefully you have found the advice in this article useful and can put it to work for your business. There isn't a lot of work or any significant investment required to make your company a success with Facebook marketing.
