Facebook Fan Page Question

    Hello, I have a personal page on facebook and have set up a fan page for my business.

    I have a couple of questions. I have made friends with a few people and I post on their page on occasion but when I do post it shows my real name, not my business (fan) page name. These friends are fans of my business, not my personal friends so why wouldn't it show by business name instead of my personal name.

    I hope this makes sense.

    If anybody knows how to work around this or set it up so my business name shows up please let me know. Thanks.

    I know exactly what you're talking about, I have the same thing going on. If I post a comment or response on MY fan page, it shows the fan page name. But I can't use that to comment elsewhere or send email. I don't know a work around though but am now very careful about my actions. I hope someone has an answer but I have a feeling that it's not possible.

    Well, that's not good. So if you go to facebook, log in, then search for the following businesses:

    whiskey go go
    conservatory okc
    party city

    so on and so forth.

    They all have postings with their business name and not a personal one. I gave several references as some are very large companies to very small bars.

    How are they doing it?

    i think you need 1000 of fans first for the business page then it shows your business name because of policies of Face Book

    Another Facebook question. How do you upload a thumbnail? Right now it is using my logo as my thumbnail but it is out of proportion and only shows the middle of the logo.
