Facebook Tip and Tricks
“A picture is worth a thousand words” as the saying goes, but when it comes to Social Media the saying should be “a picture is worth a thousand dollars”.
Part of understanding the power of Facebook is to understand the power of the search tool. As I write this, Facebook has over 400 million active users worldwide, representing a nearly infinite amount of possibilities to find those you know, those you forgot you knew and those that know you.
As you consider your profile make sure people can FIND you in Facebook. This means, include a profile photo of yourself that is clear, current, and relevant.
MAKE IT EASY FOR OTHERS TO IDENTIFY YOU!
Don’t put a picture of your pet up. Don’t put a picture of a landscape up. Don’t put up a group picture where people have to scan the photo to find you, like a cheap “Where’s Waldo” game.
If you intend on using Facebook as a business networking tool, your profile picture can play a large part in turning a potential sale into a fail.
