How To Use Facebook Places To Build Your Real Business
Author: Wolf Krammel
If you don’t know what Facebook is, you certainly need to. The social networking website is a mega-giant among online communities, and boasts more than 500 million active users. That’s more people than live in the continental United States, in case you thought you hadn’t read it right. Facebook allows people to stay in touch with their friends as well as meet new people through existing social connections, and it offers an astounding number of virtual “groups” that let people interact through common interests, professions, schools and the like.
Facebook Places is one of the newest evolutions of the Facebook world. It lets people use their smart-devices to publish their location in the real, physical world on a map available to their Facebook friends. According to Facebook, the new functionality lets users share where they are, connect with nearby friends, and find local deals. Find local deals? That’s right. That’s where you, as a business owner, come in.
The idea is fairly simple: reward your customers for coming to your physical location. Once you setup your Facebook Place, you can offer customers benefits for “checking-in” at your business location – which of course requires them to be there in the real world. For instance, you could offer 10% off a purchase with every tenth “check-in,” an entry to win a gift certificate by “checking-in,” or any amount of other benefits associated with one or cumulative “check-ins.”
First things first, though. How can you setup Facebook Places to help build your business? Assuming you already have a Facebook account set up, you first need to “check-in” from your place of business. If you have the Facebook App for your iPhone or smart-device, you can do this by clicking on the “places” tab underneath your inbox. For those who don’t use the Facebook App (you may want to start), you can browse to touch.facebook.com on your phone’s web browser. If your location doesn’t show up in the list of places near your location, you may have to add it. Once you’ve checked in, click the “Is this your business?” link at the bottom of the page.
At this point, you need to verify that you’re actually the business owner. By verifying ownership you can setup your Place with its own Facebook account and begin tracking check-ins from your customers and others. This process entails providing a variety of information such as your FEID, Articles of Incorporation, and possibly more. Simply follow the prompts to get your business listed.
Once you’ve completed the verification process you’ll need to wait for the “Okay” from Facebook’s team. As soon as you have it, your new Facebook Place is ready to be used.
So how do you start “doing it?” Well, talk to your customers. Print out business card sized promotions that explain the benefits of using Facebook Places and hand them out. Maybe get a simple promotion sign printed up to hang up in your windows or post in front of your place of business.
When it comes to building your business, every effort counts. Don’t miss out on your opportunity to use Facebook Places to your benefit.

in your opinion do you think a facebook is safe.. i am not allowed to have a myspace but what makes a facebook safe? and how is it not safe?
Facebook is quite safe. You can alter your privacy settings so only your friends can see your profile, and if you don’t want some of your friends seeing everything, you can give them limited access to your profile.

what do you like most about facebook and y do you go on it for?
everyone goes on about it whats the big deal??
I love Facebook! I’ve reconnected with people I’d lost touch with and I’ve connected with a load of new people too.
I like FB for the games and other applications and find it is just very enjoyable but it’s all to do with personal preference really. Some people love it and some don’t.
If you have facebook then answer this for me! Ok. Everyone should know that they have a new version out of facebook. Well…if you don’t ya do now! But, I was just wondering do they let you have layouts/backgrounds yet?! Because I reallly want one so i’m hoping but, i’m not sure. So just please help! Thank You!
not with this new version. so you can’t change it like on myspace yet.
How do u no if someone visited u on facebook or saw ur pics?
i have the new version of facebook but i cant find that thing D:
You can’t they won’t be notified nor will you be notified if they saw your pictures or profile or vs that the beauty of facebook
my boyfriend recently made a profile on facebook.com and he is talking with girls from that site whom he calls old friends. i know his password and i logged on this morning. i found out that he has given them his msn address and asked them to meet in person. he has also told them about me but still they were like more than friends. the girls call him honey, darling, etc. i am very angry at the moment. i want to break up with him. what should i do?
Well,you should end the relationship.
By the way,why were you spying on your boyfriend? I would be pissed if someone found out the password to my Facebook account.
What age can you start a facebook account?
aha peopel start facebook at ALL ages …your sapose to be 18 but u lie about your age ….like i did hehehe and they dont know but ALMOST my whol school has facebook.. there really shouldnt be an age for it but yea..
how do u use facebook? like, what is poke, what is wall-wall, how can u talk to someone, how do u play games, how do u find people, etc.
Facebook is a social networking website like MySpace. It’s another way to interact with friends, family, and others online. You can find people by searching their name, location, etc. and communicate with them by posting on their page. There’s really a ton of features; this wiki article below gives a good description of each.
alright…so many of my friends have a facebook page and i’d like one too. my parents only talk negatively about MySpace, online chat rooms, etc. i don’t have a cell phone, which will be one of my points when trying to convince them to let me get one. what are some other points i can make to persuade my parents to let me get one?
just make sure they know that facebook is NOTHING like myspace!! Facebook you can make it completely private where no one can see who you are unless you want them to!! Oh yeah and do your chores, maybe even do some without them having to ask you to do them, that always worked for me when I was junior high and high school
how do u delete a facebook and pictures other take of u. i dont think it is fair that anyone can take a pic of you and just post it up. it really is annoying when a photo u dont like is up and everyone can see the pic u dont like . Its still on there page if they untag u
You can’t delete pictures that others put up of you unless they take it down themselves…
Deleting your facebook doesn’t help either… The pictures will still remain there. But if you want to delete your facebook, you go to Account>Deactivate Account.
The only option I see is if you ask the person to take it down. I’m assuming it’s a friend or someone that you know that put it up, just ask them nicely. Say something like, “I really don’t like that picture of me that you put up, can you please take it down?” If they really see that you don’t want it up, they might be nice enough to take it down… But honestly, there’s no way of forcing them to take it down.
