Why? It has 350 million and growing users. How many of them could benefit from what you have to offer?
People become members of Facebook to keep in contact with family, friends, and business associates. Many join the site for networking to meet new people and make new connections. Active members share their likes and dislikes, exchange thoughts, pass on favorite website links, and more. Think about if your business was part of the community sharing of information? How might that impact your business?

It’s a unique opportunity for increasing awareness and creating a demand for your business.

In order for your business to succeed on Facebook, you need to build a sense of community. People crave this sense of belonging – it’s a basic fact of human nature. In order for your business to have impact, you can’t sell to them. You need to make people understand that you want to engage with them, that you want to create a place for people to go and participate in what you’re offering.
People want to be introduced to new ideas. They want to find people with the same interests. They want to connect with others and form strategic relationships on the site. If you are going to join the site for business purposes, this is something that should always be in the forefront of your mind.
There is a learning curve with social network marketing that unfortunately many business owners just do not have the time or inclination to master. The cool news is there are a variety of tools and services to help bypass the curve with ease.
