• Grow your fan count by using Facebook’s own social ad feature.

• It’s the most targeted traffic your money can buy.

• To buy an ad, scroll to the foot of any page inside Facebook and click the link at the very bottom that says “Advertising.”

• From there, you can walk through the wizard and get an excellent sense of how many Facebook users are in your exact target market.

• Select from a number of the new Facebook Social Plugins and place them on your website and blog.

• The Fan Box widget is now the Like Box and it works well to display your current fan page stream and a selection of fans.

• Your fans can join your fan page via text message! You’ll need to get your first 25 fans and secure your username.

• Then, to join your fan page, Facebook users just send a text message to 32665 (FBOOK) with the words “fan yourusername” OR “like yourusername” • For example, text “Like JamesHickeySDEntrepreneur ” to 32665 (which spells out ‘FBOOK’ on your phone) and you become a Facebook fan of my page.

• Look at every piece of print media you use in your business. Your Facebook fan page (as well as Twitter and any other social sites you’re active on), should be clearly displayed.

• Put your Facebook fan page link (and the logo) on your business cards, letterhead, brochure, print newsletter, magazine ads, products, etc.

• If your business is run from physical premises, put a placard on the front desk letting your customers know you’re on Facebook. Ideally, you have a simple, memorable username.

• Ask your customers to join right away via their mobile device and show you/your staff the confirmation for some kind of instant reward!

• You might give out physical coupons promoting your fan page. For Restaurants, put the Facebook logo, your username and a call to action on your menus.

• Assuming you have an opt-in email list, definitely send out an invitation to your subscribers via email letting them know about your fan page and encouraging them to join.

• Ideally, provide them with a description of the page and an incentive to join.

• Depending on how many friends you have, your relationship with your friends, how often you suggest fan pages/friends to your friends.

• I do recommend monitoring the response to this technique.

• Most people have a personal account but we have seen Facebook allow more businesses to open personal accounts with business names.

• From these accounts, you can go really target the people you become friends with by location and targeted potential clients based on what Pages they follow.

• We suggest adding a personal message to each friend request, kind of like, “I notice we are both part of the same fitness group on Facebook, lets be friends”.

• Create Community Pages either based on location or topic.

• More people are willing to follow a fun community page first before agreeing to like a business page.

• Some examples would be, "365 Things to do in San Diego" or "10,000 Women Who Love Shoe Shopping"

• From these pages, you can update all your fans and be the only one to advertise on this page.
