Ways You Can Attract Numerous Clients By Incorporating Facebook.com

In the last issue of Facebook for Business we talked about how to create a page for your business on Facebook. In this issue we are going to talk about how Facebook can help you attract new customers.

As we have discussed before, it’s important to establish online presence through social media management sites particularly Facebook even if your company already has an official website.

But why, you may ask? The answer is simple! That is because Facebook is more reachable and user friendly to other people compared to any business website. Companies that seem too corporate for anyone to look into will be able to give a sense of approachability while start up businesses that have no websites can also gain some credibility.

Not only that. Using a Facebook business page, any company can be more connected with their customers. They can get their feedback regarding their services, products and other offers. While you can also get negative feedback from some customers, this should not keep you from using a business page from Facebook. This is because you can easily moderate it as you want.

If you want to show only the best feedback on your Facebook wall and just hide the rest, you can do that. By doing this, potential customers will perceive the benefits of making use of your service or products. Feedback such as these brings a touch of genuineness to any business, and this is a great way to attract potential customers.

Also, a lot of customers who are tired of traditional Internet marketing strategies like email newsletters will most likely visit Facebook to get answers to their questions. Having a Facebook page will give your business access to over 500 Million users without even having to buy e-mail addresses like what traditional e-mail marketing resort to.

When it comes to communicating with your customers, you are not limited to wall posts and status updates. You can also make use of the photos and notes feature. When using the Fanpage which is the recommended page for businesses (instead of the more personal profile page), you can change the posting ability of fans which allow them to post photos, videos and links to the page.

If done this way, your potential customers will be ale to perceive how your products or services are being used by your customers. Again, this can engage the community to be more interactive as was successfully executed by Pampers? Facebook Fanpage. Other companies like Ben & Jerry’s go as far as polling customers. If used the right way, this will provide customers a sense of power concerning the products, which as a result will give them a sense of acceptance and possession.

With Facebook, you can also feature promos, special discounts and sales for your products as in the case of rushIMPRINT, which uses their page for this purpose. The page easily leads back to the company’s official website as well as their contact details. Some even use Facebook to give exclusive deals to their customers.

If you’re implementing Facebook marketing, this is a very good way to determine whether your page is effective or not in attracting customers. Several gifts or rewards can be given exclusively to Facebook members who are not reachable through email, Twitter or your business site.

Other companies such as Baskin Robbins develop and use a Facebook application to make their Facebook page more interactive and enticing to customers. They offer a Buy One, Get One promo which ice cream lovers will certainly not want to miss.
