While Facebook is admittedly not one of my favorite social media sites, there are ways to utilize it that will benefit you professionally. In the video below, I take a stab at giving a broad overview of Facebook and how you can leverage it from a business perspective.
Once you’ve viewed the video, please share your comments below. Do you have a Facebook membership? Are you active on the site? What are some of the better ways you’ve witnessed to utilize the site professionally?
Thanks for this video on how to utilize FaceBook. I can’t tell you how many folks I added as friends and then had to go back and “un”friend because they were inundating my inbox with “buy now” or “help me reach 5,000 friends” type stuff.
I have actually gotten some work from my connections on FB and appreciate when someone takes the time to dig into my profile, see some of my work, and wants to talk shop. I don’t need 5,000 friends, just some real networking connections and I think it’s great to remind folks of proper FB etiquette. Thanks for making the video Roger!
Best,

Zoey,
Glad you enjoyed it, and I hope you found it informative. I feel your pain with the spam comments–that’s counter to social media because those people are only interested in themselves. Those folks will be weeded out in time so that’s the solace we can take, right?
Let me know if there is anything you’d like to see in another video. 🙂
