Having set up a Facebook Page for your business, are you now looking to attract more fans to your Facebook page?

That is the most frequently asked question I get in workshops or from clients once they have decided upon their content strategy.

Well you see you have to market your Facebook page – yes you need a marketing plan and I highly encourage you to market and build visibility for your Facebook page both online and offline.

To assist you though the first step is to create a short, memorable username for your Facebook page thatyou can use in your 360 marketing programme. Initially when you set up your Facebook page you have a URL that is very long.

Setting up a unique URL for your Facebook page takes just a few seconds – though I do recommend you take more than a few seconds thinking about the name you want as once you have decided on the username you can not change it.

Here is a short video talking your through how to set the username for your Facebook page once you have your first 25 fans.

Once you have set your Facebook username for your page feel free to let people know about it here – just post your page in the comments section and let us know what your Facebook page is about.

And don’t forget to join the Marketing Mentor Facebook page – post your questions about Faceboo marketing over there and we’ll get them answered for you.

    Hi Krishna,

    Great post, I see that many people have “profiles’ set up as their business name,

    eg Acme Tools is a company and can have a facebook page “Acme Tools’ that you can become a fan of, however I see some profiles called ‘Acme Tools’ or ‘John AcmeTools’, this allows the user to make friends with people (outbound) rather than relying on people becoming fans of their page (inbound).
