How to get my facebook page up and running?

[Pedro]

Social media networking is in the uptrend and it seems like all types of business, either offline or online has jumped into this marketing vehicle by having their own official business Facebook page to promote themselves. Beside creating your own Facebook page, you must also learn the ways to attract people to be part of it. Buy Advertisement spaces on Facebook to promote your page and get more "likes". This is the fastest way to grow the number of fan likes, but of course at a cost. Run a competition or contest. Everyone likes them, especially if they are being rewarded with attractive incentives. As a start, you can ask your warm market (friends and family) to like your page. Some people will not recommend this way but I feel that this is essential especially during the initial stage.
