Marketing with Facebook: Lesson 1
As promised, I am starting a blog series.
A weekly tip/ tutorial on using Facebook for marketing.
With this being the first in the series, there will be improvements as we move along.
Lesson 1: Setting up a page.
A Facebook fanpage is a very important marketing tool for brands.
Before you can begin implementing this amazing tool, first you have to own one!
(If you already have one, I will have other advice for you after the tutorial)
1. At the very bottom of the Facebook homepage, click “create a page”
this is the screen you will be directed to:

Another Episode in my Facebook Love/Hate Relationship
I have written before about how much I love Facebook, yet I hate it all at the same time.
There is another installment of this: The Facebook Timeline
I got my timeline several months ago as a special release to developers only.
I love the idea of it.
However, If you play games, its not so great when it starts.
The reason for this is when others go to your wall, its hard to fine all of the game posts.
Its wonderful for just pictures, status updates, and the new addition of LIFE EVENTS.
I LOVE this new addition.
I went through and added all of my biggest life events; like my wedding, when my son was born, and when I started NighLon!
Facebook Love: Wix
Behold the email I received today!
I enjoy playing around with Wix to create webpages.
However, I have discovered that for my own personal style, WIX is best for splash pages ; versus full blown websites.
I wanted to make an amazing landing page for my Facebook fan page, but honestly thought that I would have to do some serious coding to accomplish this. Then, like magic, this email appeared in my inbox!
PERFECT TIMING!!!
Just go to WIX
Sign up for a free account
Choose a Facebook template
Edit to your liking
Save (choose name)
Publish
Then, WIX will walk you through setting your site as your landing page in Facebook
It’s really pretty simple!
I still want to play around with it and tweak a bit, but this is a start.
There are so many things you can incluede:
Slideshows
Collages
Contact
Extra Pages
Store Items
Play around with it, and let me know what you come up with.
