Facebook Fan Page

Recently, I've been doing more research on the art industry, art business, and art marketing and that includes reading a great number of blogs. It seems that the new way of getting personalized information and advice is from scouring the web, instead of asking a colleague directly.

To keep up with the ever changing times and broad range of customers and friends who lives all across the nation, I've decided to join the crowd and create a Facebook Fan page. I already have a personal page, but a person who is interested in my latest painting, may not be interested in reading a status update about my latest weight loss accomplishment.

Being all too unfamiliar with Facebook's Fan Page set up, I did some mandatory exploration. I found that getting to where you set up the page to be the trickiest part, but once I got to the create page function it was quite simple. I am only going to give step-by-step instructions on getting to the creating a page, the rest will be up to you. Facebook has useful information on how to edit the page.

  • First, sign into your own personal page.
  • From your home page, scroll all the way to the bottom of the screen and click ADVERTISING.
  • Once the Advertising screen is available, click the button on the top of the screen that says PAGES.
  • After you've arrived on the PAGES screen, take the time to read the overview, prepare, step by step, and find new fans tabs.

  • Once you've done all that, click on CREATE PAGE!





It seems quite simple once you've found it. This should be enough information to give you a start on creating your very own Facebook Fan Page! You can never learn enough or try too many things when it comes to new technology and your business.

Now that you've considered starting your Fan Page, please post yours in the comments and also become a fan of mine!
