On #Blackout: How to Advertise in Real Time
Adam,
Fun look at the Super Bowl - Love how you used the embedded tweets!
I thought Walgreens and Oreo were the most clever.
A memorable event for sure (I don't usually watch, but I did).
Thanks for sharing your insights,

On How To Create Your First Facebook Ad Campaign: Step-By-Step
Dan,
As someone that has run Facebook Ad campaigns, it is easy as a newbie to become overwhelmed. You really cover good points, and those wishing to run a Facebook with current options should feel comfortable referring to your article as a resource.
The newer options are plentiful, and the interest categories could send the first time user into rabbit holes. Luckily, Facebook makes the ad so very easy to edit and re-direct! :)
My most recent Facebook Ad campaign involved promoted posts leading up to a contest. I was surprised by the results - Perhaps we can discuss and share notes.
Thanks for using my image - It made me smile to see it as I browsed headlines this morning! :D

Michael,
Sorry to hear that you were struggling with figuring out this new Timeline for brands. So, someone moved the cheese? I think after we're done figuring things out, and we make it through the first set of tweaks, this will be something people will really like.
Glad this article helped, and that you feel you have better understanding. Keeping me posted on how you do with your Timeline. And, if you have any questions, I am more than happy to help.
Thank you for your comment and kind words,

Jennifer,
You have hit the nail on the head. It's taking time to see how everything fits. While it is very much the personal profiles, there were tweaks that kept us searching, that's for sure.
If Facebook tweaks some more, I'd like to see an option for 1-column for Brand pages.
So glad you liked the video, and found this a helpful summary. (Others will hopefully scroll to the bottom to find the video link).
Thank you for your comment,

Covers For Timeline,
The personal Timeline was a bigger to-do than the Business Pages, I think. People were prepared for that.
I was hoping for a few features to be different for pages. For instance, a one-column view. The 2-column gets a little harry for brands, in my opinion. Still, the Cover Image is so much fun!
Thanks for the resource,

On How to Virally Grow Your Facebook Fan Page
Brad,
Great article!
As a social media manager/marketer, I agree with much of what you've had to say. Though I do believe that people should watch their page insights -- they may have hours of activity that are better for them that are different than what you suggest above.
Sitting in a session with Socialbakers not too long ago, they conveyed that 2pm Eastern is the most active hour on Facebook over all. For my page, 8-9pm is more active than 5-7pm. We all just have to look....and keep looking.
The things that seem to trigger the biggest response are pictures and discussion of delicious food/coffee. Sometimes what I wouldn't 'expect! :)
A good resource to refer people to - thanks!

On 3 Actions to Try Instead of Begging for Facebook “Likes”
Kevin,
We're all guilty of starting somewhere. And for some people online, the ins and outs of social media are not obvious (those of more seasoned generations).
Though, "When in Rom...".
It kills me to see people using these behaviors you describe above - The begging. And the consistent feeding of information without engaging. Yikes! It's one thing to not know, but another to keep on after taking a lesson or two. Eventually we tune this out, right?
My Facebook page has been described lately as a party. People commented they were drawn in because it was fun. I respond to each post, and I visit pages of admins that visit me.
It's a 2-way street.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, and providing this resource for those curious and learning!
