How Will Facebook Help Me Sell?
   Make connections to prospects and
   discover something you have in
   common.

   Create a Company Profile leading traffic
   from Facebook to your website.

   Promote the person behind the title.
   Show your human side.

   Provide members the information to
   promote your brand, product or service.
Facebook: Professional vs. Personal
Twitter
Tiny messages which make big
conversations.

Gaining the momentum and
commonality of blogging.

Gives a human voice to companies
either through an official account or a
company’s employees.
Twitter
Twitter
Do I Need to be on Twitter?
 Twitter is not for everyone and has not
 developed a B2B following which is as
 strong as it’s B2C users.

 Real life events do effect your business
 and people are tweeting about them.

 Monitoring Twitter the same way you
 monitor blogs and internet news
 postings can add depth to public views
 on trends and industry topics.
Thank you.

  • 11. Determine Your Facebook Role Relationship Builder Educator Thought Leader Power Networker Brand Champion
  • 12. How Will Facebook Help Me Sell? Make connections to prospects and discover something you have in common. Create a Company Profile leading traffic from Facebook to your website. Promote the person behind the title. Show your human side. Provide members the information to promote your brand, product or service.
  • 14. Twitter Tiny messages which make big conversations. Gaining the momentum and commonality of blogging. Gives a human voice to companies either through an official account or a company’s employees.
  • 17. Do I Need to be on Twitter? Twitter is not for everyone and has not developed a B2B following which is as strong as it’s B2C users. Real life events do effect your business and people are tweeting about them. Monitoring Twitter the same way you monitor blogs and internet news postings can add depth to public views on trends and industry topics.
