Facebook Page : Obama’s Secret to Win the Election

You may already have a Facebook profile, but do you have a Facebook Page? Top marketers, and even public figures like President Obama use Facebook pages. Many people believe that President Obama’s success was largely due to his campaigns use of Facebook pages, and other Social media sites.

What is the difference between a Facebook profile and a Facebook page? Both allow you to send updates to your friends or fans, but Facebook pages do not require you to approve everyone who wants to add you as a friend. Facebook pages were designed for public figures, performers, bands, and businesses, to have a presence on Facebook, and to allow Facebook users to follow their favorite personalities and businesses. When you are tracking down other marketers, businesses, or entertainers on Facebook, if you see the “Become a Fan” button, you know you are on a Facebook page, instead of a profile.

Currently Facebook has more active users worldwide than the population of the USA. With such a wide audience, you cannot afford to ignore Facebook in your marketing efforts. Imagine your profit potential by carving out only a small group of Facebook users. Your Facebook pages will give you the opportunity to talk to the Facebook user, right where they enjoy spending their time.

I recommend keeping your Facebook profile to share with family and friends, and to have Facebook pages for your business, and market niches. Creating a Facebook page is quite simple, if your follow these few steps you will have your Facebook page ready for your audience:
