Hi guys. Maybe it is a stupid question but it is really important to me because i am not that good with facebook. I am trying to create a fan page so i am adding people. What would i say to people when i add them? that I am going to create a fan page and would like them to join me? or just add them what I want to know them or i should send nothing? i am trying to know the best and the effective way thanks
Create an attractive, informative FBML welcome/landing page instead of the boring Wall page. Check out your competition, or some large company pages for ideas. People should feel that they're getting value by liking your page. I'm new to FB too, but you can see one of my welcome pages if you search for "shades of malibu". If I'm lucky enough for sunglasses shoppers to find me in FB, they need to be able to immediately search for brands/models. I need to add more company info, coupons, etc.
I agree with the above answer but even if you dont find anything just dont write anything when you add them. I do the same thing on facebook and it really works.
This is what I say when I want to add a friend and get them in my group and fan page : Hi there, We may not know each other, but we all love poker. I saw you on the xxxxxx page on facebook and wanted to add you to my facebook friends circle. Who knows, we could be sitting on the same table on an online poker site or meet up in a live tourney somewhere in the future! Good luck for your poker action and thanks for adding me as a friend and do join me in my fun group and fan page Have a great day!
Agree with lucilla. you can also send "Thanks" Message when they will become fan of facebook fan page.
Exactly, Be as much personal as you can to add anyone.... Facebook is about networking with real people, who are just there for fun... You've to give them something interesting ....
Just add them, if they are interested with fan page, they will approve it. If no, you can't force them.
If you want to increase the number of followers then try to find out peoples, groups, and networks, related to your niche on facebook, join/add them, and then post some good quality information there, your number of fans will increase...
Its a good idea to search by interest and find people already into the types of things related to your page. And just don't keep on sending invite after invite to the same person after they decline it. People do that and its' annoying.
Posting quality content with pictures and videos is the way to go. Content shouldn't be all buy buy buy.. it should have value.
another way to add people is ask your contacts on twitter or freindfeed to join you at Facebook. You can cross- exchange them on any platform I guess, after all these people know you..
I totally agree with the above comment. You could include a short message to make it personal, but I receive group invites and fan page invites all the time. I either add them or delete them. If I'm interested, I will add them whether I know them or not.
Furthermore, it can't hurt to try! If they reject your initial invite, try something different or move on to other people!
If you want add quick list to your fanpage, then just add as many as you want. If it's ok for you to wait, try to go to groups with similar interest and request members in that group, they will surely recommend and will help grow your list. the second one is really worth and fruitful in my own experience. Cos they are the ones who are really interested in your service/product or what ever.
to active your fan page you need to follow white technique.so you should first increase your friends list from several accounts and you just nothing to say when you add them.but if they give you any text then reply to them.you need create a high quality fan page from PVA then it will never deleted or suspended.i am ready to provided any kind of free help.
