A few weeks back Facebook started allowing users to claim a unique username for their profiles. For example, I grabbed http://facebook.com/christinegallagher for my personal profile.
A common complaint I hear from those using Facebook Fan Pages is how little Facebook does to allow you to connect your personal profile to your Fan Page.
Last week I had a call about the biggest myths of marketing on Facebook. One myth I mentioned I see discouraging small business owners is that “Facebook alone will get you clients and customers.” This would be wonderful if it was true of course.
If you’re overwhelmed and confused about how to use Facebook to market your business then be sure to sign up for the free call I am doing this Tuesday night.
So it’s been a rumor for a while now, but Facebook has finally said that they will be allowing people to secure their Facebook username URL beginning tomorrow, 6/13 at 12:01 am EST.
We’re a society of want-it-nowers, always looking for instant results. We love our credit cards, microwaves and drive-thrus too much for this mentality not to creep into our online marketing activities.
