Facebook in 5 Minutes: Tag You're It

Today's Tip is centered on sharing your Facebook Business Page with your personal friends. Obviously, if you have a personal page - you have friends who see what you post on your personal wall. Do they know what you do? Have you invited them to 'Like' your business page? Another option is tagging which creates a link directly to your business page in one of your personal posts.

What is an @ Tag?
A tag links a person, page, or place to something you post, like a status update or a photo. For example, you can tag a photo which will link to the people in the photo or post a status update and say who you’re referencing?

Tagging Your Business
• When typing your business name in a post - type the '@' before the name. (ie: Have you checked out the latest coupon from @Qlixite?)
• As you type the name after the '@' symbol - Facebook will automatically drop down suggestions  - when your page appears, you can click on it.
• The '@Qlixite' will appear blue in your post and will link directly to your business facebook page so people can quickly get there.

Time for Action
Now is the time - don't put it off until later - take 5 minutes or less to come up with a post in which you can tag your business. Make sure you are logged into Facebook. Under status - write your post (be sure you place the @ tag before your business page name) and hit enter. That's it! You're done! As a general rule - try to tag your business EVERY time you mention your business in a post - it makes it easier for people to get to your page.
