It’s hard to argue that Facebook marketing isn’t here to stay. A Facebook page is quickly becoming a necessary complement to many companies’ online branding strategy. While the platform doesn’t have the branding and design user experience that a traditional website delivers, it certainly is convenient way to instantly reach and push content out to all those who “Like” your page. It is also easy to maintain and update, from almost anywhere. But that doesn’t mean anyone should do it! Instant distribution certainly is a powerful feature, but to maximize the impact of your Facebook marketing, it should be integrated and managed as part of your overall marketing plan and messaging strategy. It may make sense to get professional help, as we currently manage the social networking platforms for several clients across multiple industries. This includes a recent launch of green documentary called Happy Planet, which also featured the song of our musician client, showing another powerful benefit of social marketing platforms.

As social-media evolves to become a must for nearly any marketing plan, it is important to assess your firm’s strategies. In a recent project for an emerging singer-songwriter, Articulation created and leveraged a strong presence on several social networking sites to drive traffic to his website and to other profiles, to gain exposure and listeners, and interact with fans. With most sites now linking to each other through easy-to-use applications, you gain a complex web of avenues to reach your target market, allowing you to engage in ongoing conversations with frequent touches. While Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn are the most common networks, industry-specific communities offer unique audiences, while media-sharing sites like Youtube and Flickr, blogs and forums can be equally effective tools in a multi-tier marketing scheme.

Spurred by their recent giveaway of a free bag of chips for the signing up of new fans, SunChips Facebook page gained nearly 200,000 fans in a matter of days. Following up the efforts with a free song download for all fans and a promise of more giveaways in the near future, the company is set to gain a significant following on the ubiquitous social networking site which could translate to real-life profits. PandaExpress, Baja Fresh, T.G.I. Friday’s, 1-800-Flowers.com, The Children’s Place, and many other companies have also begun using giveaways as a means to expand their fan base, promote their offerings, and build brand awareness. As with any strategy, it is important to assess whether the strengths of your company’s offerings can be effectively conveyed through this type of method before including it in your marketing plan. When executed appropriately, a fan giveaway can be an excellent marketing resource as well as true testament to your product.
