80. “Check-In”
A great way to offer a deal to your
customers when they stop by!

81. How do I claim
a place I represent?
http://www.facebook.com/help/?page=1154
To claim your Place, search for your business name on Facebook via the normal
Search bar. If your business’s Place already exists on Facebook, click on it to visit
its page. At the bottom left side of your Place you may see a link that says "Is
this your business?" Click on the link and you will be directed to a claiming flow.
We will ask you to verify that you are the owner through a phone verification
process, or you may be asked for document verification. If your claim is
confirmed, you will be able to admin your Place on Facebook.
If you do not see the "Is this your business?" link on a Place, then it is not
available to claim at this time.
