Facebook: Alive, Loving it & Helping Businesses Around

imagesFacebook rumors of being ‘dead’…..true?

There is much that is going on about Facebook these days and it can be noticed well. People often remark that perhaps Facebook is dying since there are all these new restrictions which are on the news feed and also the drop in some activities. There are experts who are even saying with confidence that it isn’t anymore of use to have a business page for Facebook. They say Facebook is ‘dead’. But we aren’t going to agree with that.

Facebook Marketing is still essential as the platform is still the best platform for social media and for campaigning. There’s no confusion on this at all. Ever wanted to think of the benefits which a business page on Facebook will provide to you? Good that you have asked. We will tell you now…..

No, it is very much alive, thank you.

You get a lot of exposure for the customers. There are 1.19 billion users who are on Facebook and surely you don’t need to know more. If you are still not able to get customers on this platform, then perhaps it’s time to rethink on your strategies.

The marketing expenses get reduced: When you are starting a business page on Facebook, you have to pay $0. Of course there will be spending money for some graphic artist for the purpose of designing the cover photo and also the profile picture, though that’s not really essential. You can have it all done with the help of photographs and have the business work like it should and there will even be instances when you will find that it gets better to have a creative image than what you can get from a designer. So the point is that you get a page which has no cost unless you have started to pay for ads in order to get likes and also for the purpose of boosting the posts. These all are to be done with the use of your page. The ads on Facebook are known to be inexpensive when compared to others for the traditional print and also the ads on radio and television. It is just the same for your page.

There are insights on this platform: You may not be a number person and things aren’t so much in calculating manner with you. But you will fall in love with the Facebook Insights, which you can get on the business page/s. They can be understood with ease and also the non-technical backgrounds can find it easy. You get much information which is good for you. You will know the number of pages you have liked, how far your posts have created the effect and also the page’s engagement. You will be able to dig around and also know of more posts which will be good and also the fans’ activities as well.

You get a lot of leads: When you have a lot of people liking your page, you find it good. But that’s not enough in order to get a sustainable and long-term business. You will be able to make a better living but short-term with the page. But in case Facebook isn’t working or is removed from the social world for sometime then things will be difficult. You won’t be able to be in touch of people who are your prospects. But Facebook also lets you have the leads and their contacts so they can be contacted outside the platform.
