For the complete details about this, please see the Facebook blog post and the post specifically for page administrators.

While you can always use a URL shortening service, having a simple link to your page is as valuable as a domain name. Facebook is going to try to address any issues regarding trademark, but the best thing to do is to show up and reserve the names for your pages.

If you have yet to setup a Facebook fan page for your business, you may want to take this opportunity to simply setup the page to act as a placeholder for when you are ready to move forward with Facebook as a part of your online marketing strategy. Questions? Just let me know.

Facebook has left MySpace in the dust. And businesses have a chance to use Facebook to connect with customers in ways that can increase sales and improve customer loyalty. Unfortunately, most business owners have no idea what strategy to take with Facebook.

In this workshop you will learn techniques to become a Facebook power-user, to setup groups and pages for your business, and gain an understanding of how Facebook can amplify your marketing messages.

The cost for this 90-minute workshop is $25 per attendee and limited to 20 participants. Advanced registration is required for attendance. (Registration link will be posted soon.) Special deal: If two people register together (different companies, please) both of you are free. Only caveat is that you both better show up! This event will be held in the training room at the Burlington County College Business Incubator and you can early RSVP on the Facebook event page.
