It look like I have more work today.  Thanks for another great tutorial Cheryl

Thank you for another wonderfully documented hint. Your posts are always wonderful.

I am going to check out face book. Thank you for the instructions

Thanks for the feedback - I will add my business profile.

Thanks - www.sharonintheoc.com

Thanks, I started and gave up. LOL. I'll go back and finish up. It was loading slowly that day and I didn't know where to find it again. Thank you, Cheryl !

Missy:  I'm glad I'm not the only one that was having fits over the navigation. 

Hi Cheryl,

Thank you for the help.  I need to add to what I have done previously.  I really needed this help about two weeks ago!

Cheryl, You are without a doubt my most bookmarked person!  I KNOW someday I'm going to get to try some of these things and will need them all.  Thanks for your wonderful posts!

I put my listing under professional service so that I could give a general description. I'm not exactly sure what they mean by the "real estate"  category.

Cheryl, Can you enter a business on FaceBok without entering the personal?

Ginger

Thanks for putting this together in such detail, Cheryl! I'm going to tackle the Facebook business page this week. I'll let you know if I figure out any tips and tricks. :)

Ginger -- I think you need to be a member to create a business page.  However when you create the business page, there is no reference on the page to who created it or the identity of the administrators.

I 'spose you could join under an alias and/or put mimimal info/business info only on the profile page .... and not add any friends or applications .... just for the purpose of creating a biz page .... but you'd miss out on the friendship and interaction part.... ??

Cheryl... What a great source for information you are.  I really appreciate all that you are teaching us.

Thanks,

Kathleen

Hi Cheryl,

thank you for the picture by picture on how to do this.  i have one already but did not understand the whole thing yet.  thank you for helping.

I set this up yesterday. We'll see what happens. Thanks for the good info. Facebook is not the easiest to navigate.

Thanks, I just got on facebook , this is helpful 

Thanks I am adding this to my todo list for this week.  I'm heading over to your facebook page now to check it out.

This is an excellent post!  Thank you for taking the time to take all those screen shots.  Really help illustrates the set up process.

Great instructions.  I wish I had found this before I set up my page.  It took me a while to figure it out,  I just wish they had an option to send out invitations to your friends to become a "fan of the page".  If you start a group you can send invites, but not the business page.  Good Job.

Thanks for the tutorial!! -cem

Thanks Cheryl.  I signed up for Facebook and created a business page today.  Thanks for your tutorial.  There is so much to learn about web-based marketing, and tutorials like yours make everything so much easier. 

Nice tutorial. Generation Y is a totally different market segment in that they totally ignore most any medium that's not instant, or social.

Thank you Cheryl. I really appreciate the work you did here for all of us learners.  I will put that on my list for tomorrow. Best to you in 2008.

I am just preparing to take the EPRO class now and I know one of the suggestions that they give is to do a profile in face book and my space.  I just forgot until now.  Thanks for the reminder.

Well, I am your 2nd fan...hopefully the others will add their names too:)  I went to your business site and am wondering how this would work for someone like me who works for RE/MAX?  Does it make sense to have one?

I just started setting it up - Thanks so much!!!

Bookmarked! Thanks for sharing. Would this affect the current Facebook that I have?

Thanks so much for this post! I have a personal page, but am going to add a business page too. I also just chose "real estate" even though it lacks areas to type in basic information. I'm thinking there must be some place people can search under the category, so I would rather be classified as real estate...just in case.

Thanks for sharing this. I didn't know about the business pages.

I just finished my business page and THANK YOU! I consider myself pretty computer literate, but geess I appreciated having your guide. 

PS. I am now a fan!

OK!  Definitely will give this a try.  Thanks for the info.

Cheryl - Thanks! I have been on facebook but didn't realize they offered business pages.

Thanks Cheryl. I've just added my business page.

Does anybody know how to find each other's business pages?

Great information.  I will give it a try...

Wow. Did not know Facebook had business pages! Thank you!

Hey Cheryl,

Thanks for all of the time that you put into this post.  I was not aware that you could do this.  Appreciate it! 

Good work Cheryl!  What are all the benefits of having a business page instead of a regular page? Can u have both?   Would it be better to just have business stuff on your regular page since that is the one people will visit the most like for social purposes and see ur business stuff.  They may not be likely to see the business stuff as much if it is seperate?  Just some questions u can hopefully help me out with.

David -- Yes, you can have both ... me, I just put the page up there and let it be. 

Brian Brady is putting totgether some good stuff on using Facebook for the Bloodhound UNChained conference.

I've been hearing about Facebook, just never went there. I added my company. Thanks for the help.

I picked up another old time friend as a buyer today. He had been noticing the closing pics Ive been putting up on it and taggin our friends that also have facebook. They love having closing pics as part of their profile pictures!!

Great blog! I just did one myself, check it out and let me know your feedback! http://tinyurl.com/3jryvf

(Feel free to become a fan!)

I am experimenting with it, I want to see how viral a small business's page can be comparing to big companies like Lego, Guiness, Slurpees, etc. where they already have large and viral audience built in (i.e. college kids). I have been doing a lot of reading on facebook. Their demographic certainly has shifted a lot since last year.

Cheers,

Cindy :) 

Cheryl,

Facebook has been on my mind for quite some time now as another online marketing venue for my mortgage business. Need to look into it a bit more and then go from there. Now I know where to go for tutorials.

Great thoughts! Thanks for being willing to share it with everyone!

Cheryl, thank You for your information,

Cheryl, It is great to point this out to people, I have been using the business pages for a while now and I really like all of the information I can display there. Not only can I provide information but I can interact with others on a new level that a website doesn't always provide. More people shoud be using this part of facebook. You beat me to the post but I am glad it is here. Great work!

I have been wondering WHY you would want a business page and your personal page? Anyone? Just curious.

Thanks for the post -- I've been thinking that I wanted to build "Group" pages -- for some of the local neighborhoods in my area.

I'm still a bit confused on how you separate your "Business" from your "Personal" pages on Facebook.  I'm sure there's a way, I just haven't found the road yet.

Wow, you've saved me a ton of time Cheryl. Thank you. I just joined Facebook today and am trying to figure it all out. (Like I need something else to do with my time!)

THanks for the tips, was not aware that facebook offered the feature

Cheryl,

I've been experimenting with Facebook all day (blogging) and was so happy to come across your very detailed and precise instructions.  Now, I'm going to play around with it some and see what I can come up with.

Thanks so much for the very timely post !

Kimberly

I am glad I came across your blog - I have connected with many friends and keep in touch with family on Facebook - but wasnt aware of this! I will go do this right now! Thanks - Nicky

Cheryl,

Thank you so much for this info.  I have been on facebook for a little while for personal, but did not know how to do the business.  GREAT POST!!

Fantastic post with great graphics that made it all so much easier. It took me about 45 minutes and I'm still not sure if I've forgotten something.

I did add my open house tomorrow under the events module.

I also signed up as a fan!

I'll try toset one up tonight if I have time, so many blogs and posts and things.  Thanks for your information, Keep up the Rain!

Thanks so much for sharing -- I knew there was a business section out there, I just couldn't figure out how to create one for myself!  I'm headed to the Land of Facebook right now...

Cheryl, Thanks for the great information.  I had recently signed up for Facebook but haven't done much with it.  I didn't know about the business pages.  Thanks to you I now have a business page - needs more work but I'll finish it up later.  Also, I'm now a fan of yours.  Thanks again.

Great instructions!  I followed them step by step & it worked just great!  Thank you so much!!

I bookmarted it

Thank you for sharing the picture and information about it

Aloha

Stephanie

I am going to check this out, I had no idea!  Thanks so much for taking the time, great information!

It's a Good Life!

Fran

Thank you for going through the steps on getting a business page.  I just learned about these pages and was wondering how to set one up and now I do :).

I didn't know aything about the business pages on Faccebook.  It sounds like a good place to be. I'll have to check it out.

Cheryl, do people look at the business pages? Are you seeing any activity?

Cheryl, thanks for pointing this Facebook section out to us.  I am interested to hear your reply to Connie Harvey's questions.

Well done! Great tutorial!

OKAY This is by far one of THEE best post on AR I have ever seen and learned the most from!  AND way faster than getting one of my kids to sit down and show me how to do it!

THanks soooo much! BIG KUDOS to YOU!

Cheryl, you are a star in my book.  Thanks a thousand times for sharing this valuable information with me.  And, I especially like how you included the visuals and illustrations.  It makes your tutorial so much easier to follow. 

WOW! Thank you! I am off to set up a Facebook page for my business! I love it for my personal life, but wanted to keep the two separate for obvious reasons!

Thanks, I am going to do this!
