• Facebook Marketing -  Background

  Most people agree that Search Engine Marketing was one of the most important advertising developments of the last 50 years. It changed the landscape of marketing and quickly became one of the most important forms of advertising in the world providing companies of all sizes with the opportunity to compete for the attention of their target audiences and measure the success of their efforts. The marketers that were among the first to identify and use that exciting new medium saw tremendous results. Facebook Marketing today is in its infancy similar to where Google was in 2003. Companies that act quickly have that same opportunity to get in on the next big advertising development of the next ten years.

  As with most new forms of marketing, the rewards come not to the quickest adopters, but more to the smartest adapters. Successful Facebook Marketing is not a clone of an existing Google Adwords program, but instead requires a program that is designed to capitalize on the unique aspects of the Facebook experience. Already there are marketers that have “tried” Facebook and have “failed”. But a close inspection of those efforts reveals that those failures have more to do with the quality of the marketing efforts than they do about the quality of the marketing channel.

  Every day, more and more advertisers are starting to become aware of the awesome marketing potential available inside this active and growing community. Now is the time to get started to allow you to harness the power of Facebook Marketing for your products and services.
