Introducing Online Courses for Journalists on Facebook | Facebook Media

Introducing Online Courses for Journalists on Facebook | Facebook Media | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

In addition to the Discover, Create and Engage modules, we have included a guide for journalists that will explain how to get started on Facebook or simply grow your presence. We’ve heard from journalists that they need more information when deciding between setting up a Page or a profile and about how to manage privacy settings. The “Getting Started” course seeks to answer all of those questions and covers key steps for building out a professional journalistic voice on the platform, including how to apply for the Facebook blue badge that indicates verification.

In the coming weeks, we will also commence a series of webinars on the site which will be tailored to journalists who are both new and old to Facebook. These webinars will be organized according to new products and features, a person’s level of experience using Facebook as a journalist, and their role (newsgatherer, content creator, or audience engagement specialist)....

15 Benefits of Having a Fan Page Over a Personal Page on Facebook | Social Media Today

15 Benefits of Having a Fan Page Over a Personal Page on Facebook | Social Media Today | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it

There isn't anything worse than checking a website and clicking their Facebook link to find that they've redirected you to a personal page. Not only do you have to hope they accept you as a "friend," you're taken through one more step to see their content and find their real Fan Page. I hate this! Here are the top 15 reasons to have a Fan Page, and not a personal page, attached to your business....

Jeff Domansky's insight:

If there's one thing to change in your social marketing program, it's to make sure you have a friend page and not your personal page working for your business on Facebook. What are you waiting for?

Frederique Niel's curator insight, May 9, 2013 10:42 AM

I still see some people who are using a personal facebook account for their business. Despite the fact that it is against Facebook rules, having a business fan page has so many more benefits.

Knowva Consulting's curator insight, May 9, 2013 11:00 AM

Some of the top points in this excellent article:

 

"Having a Facebook Fan Page means:
- Your Fan Page is open and public, and your personal page can stay private,
- You make a good, first impression because new fans are not directed to a brand-disconnected, personal page,
- Your friend count is unlimited (instead of capped),
- The search engines will index it, which helps your SEO,
- You get Facebook Insights, Facebook Tabs, Facebook Contests,
- You get Facebook Advertising, which is very targeted."

Thanks for your comments Frederique and Knowva. No question this is one simple change in the business should make I haven't got their own business pages working for them on Facebook.

Facebook for Online PR - 3 Examples of Social Media Public Relations In Action | Public Relations & Social Marketing Insight | Scoop.it
...You craft the perfect press release and send it to 1,000 of your contacts. Twenty of these people think this is such great news, they each send it to 500 of their friends, relatives and business contacts. Five of those people pass the news on to 250 of their contacts. Of course, these people are all fascinated, as you’ve been able to include pictures, a video, and they all received the message within hours!

Sorry, this type of viral messaging just doesn’t happen in real life… outside of Facebook, that is.

Facebook is fast becoming one of the most powerful PR tools on the web. Using Facebook as an online PR tool allows companies to increase their reach exponentially, getting in front of interested people with engaging content when and where they are receptive to the message.
