Facebook has become an important tool for chiropractors, real estate professionals, home business owners and other entrepreneurs to grow and market themselves. Many small businesses have now started using Facebook Fans Pages to communicate activities taking place in their business like an event, promotion, seminars, appreciation day, and other things of interest. Although most businesses recognize that using a Facebook Fan Page can be an effective medium to reach-out to potential customers and clients, many times they don\u2019t see the number of fans increasing as they would like. This can cause a sense of frustration. So, I thought I\u2019d give you 7 simple and effective ways of getting more fans:<\/p>\n

1. Email signatures:<\/em> This one is the simplest method which takes only 5 minutes or so to set up, but costs nothing and is quite effective. Include details about your Facebook fan page in your email signature, and every time you send an email out your signature will remind people of your Facebook fan page.<\/p>\n

\"chiropractic<\/a>2. Invitations to your mailing list:<\/em> As a small business owner, you must already have a mailing list. Why not send an email to your list asking them to become your Facebook fan? This type of targeted mailing will help you get loads of Facebook fans from resources that you already have and can tap into easily.<\/p>\n

3. Invite users to become Facebook fans in other emails:<\/em> I applied for a Delta Sky Miles credit card recently, and was quite surprised to see that their confirmation email had a link to become their Facebook fan. At first, I was confused, but then I was impressed by their dedication to social media. Most businesses send confirmation emails about orders, and other such emails which only serve to inform their customer that the order has been shipped or that they have been approved for a credit card or something like that. Why not take this opportunity to ask them to join your Facebook fan page?<\/p>\n

4. Ask your Twitter followers:<\/em> This one is a no-brainer as well . You already have a lot of Twitter followers who are interested in what you have to say. Isn\u2019t it natural that you ask them to become your Facebook fan too? Tweet out about your fan page and you will see good results over time.<\/p>\n

5. Connect your website to your Facebook fan page:<\/em> It is not realistic to believe that people will look-up your brand on Facebook on their own. You need to trigger that and a good way of doing that is by connecting your website to your Facebook fan page. Put a link on the sidebar or your blog to your Facebook fan page and you will see your number of fans trickle up every day.<\/p>\n

6. Run contests:<\/em> If you were planning to run contests or a give-away, why not add a condition of becoming your fan on Facebook and boost your social media marketing while you hand out freebies? Such events are a useful platform to give a one-time boost to fan numbers.<\/p>\n

7. Join the fun:<\/em> You could do all the above and still not get enough fans if you are not active on Facebook. You need to join the conversation, tag photos, post updates, and even post exclusive content. If people don\u2019t feel that the community is engaging and alive they will give up on it.<\/p>\n

Hopefully you will take immediate action on these tips and give your Facebook fan page a boost in the amount of friends that are engaged in your business activities.<\/p>\n
