I need to know why should I put my company profile in Facebook. What are the advantages that I will gain from doing so?

First off, beware of the Nike answer, that is SPAM.

Advantages of using facebook as a business profile:

- it is a world-wide social network, therefore you are likely to be able to contact people across the globe.

- more will be aware of what it is you are trying to promote, because it is out in the public domain.

Disadvantages:

- hackers/spammers (be sure to change your password frequently)

- be sure to approve your comments

Facebook is a very good source of traffic and leads when you know how to use it.

The advantages - you'll be able to connect with potentially thousands of clients, and you can subtly showcase your products.
