Contact Info
Remember, more and more people now look for
the Facebook page of a business before a
website. The owner of the site needs to fill out all
of the information that a customer may need.
This may include a phone number, hours, and
any other pertinent information for clients to
either get a hold of you or place an order.

Often, if a customer doesn’t find the info they
need in a few seconds, they’ll move onto
another business. This is especially true for
consumers who aren’t as concerned with price,
reputation or other specifics. They simply need
help now. It should take less than an hour to set
up a Facebook page, and it will pay off in the
long run countless times.

Communication
A lot of businesses make a great page, but fail to
communicate with their customers. Remember, the
whole world can see a social media page. If a
customer comments on your wall, whether it is a
bad or good comment, it is crucial to respond
quickly. Depending on the business size, you can
approach communication in a couple of ways. For a
large company, it may be prudent to have someone
constantly on social media. For a smaller or self run
business, try and at least check your social media
pages on a daily basis.

Tracking
One of the greatest benefits of social networking
is the free traffic. If the owner of a business
posts relevant and interesting posts, they will
likely see a surge in traffic. Install tracking codes
on your website to see the traffic source though.
You’ll also be able to see what traffic converts
into customers. In doing so, you will be able to
tweak your social media campaigns
appropriately and make even more money.

Incentives
Anyone with a social media page should have
incentives for their customers. One way to have
an incentive is a monthly drawing for Facebook
or Twitter followers. This will get people
interested in following your business on social
media. It does not have to be a huge prize,
something simple that people will enjoy will
suffice. If you have a brick and mortar location,
inform your customers of the contest.
Remember you want to get as many legitimate
followers as possible.

Overextension
Never post or reach out too often. Some
businesses make the mistake of posting multiple
times a day and/or spamming inboxes with
messages all day. It depends on the industry and
customer base of course, but you should usually
post less than once a day, at most – aim for
twice a week. Users will become bored and think
of your business as gimmicky if you’re constantly
spamming the walls of your fans on Facebook.
