Facebook Tips from the Pros

October 5, 2012 By Peg 3 Comments

This week’s fab five Friday will focus on Facebook as I have the pleasure of attending Mike Stelzner and Social Media Examiner’s Facebook Success Summit 2012 as the guest of my friend, Marc Ensign, who won two tickets on the Social Media Examiner website. Check out Marc’s blog and this post How to Create Your Own Good Luck. I found Marc first but I am willing to share him with you.

Week one was packed with amazing content so I created Storify stories of the first four events. Mike has created a really well run, professional program PACKED with content. Guess what, Facebook is not easy and it is getting more challenging by the day. You need to work hard to keep up on all the changes that Facebook is making. Create your own competitive advantage!

If you are not attending the sessions, follow the #FBSS12 hashtag stream on Twitter each event is being tweeted live and there is a lot of great content being shared throughout. Watch for my stories that I create on Storify.* You can subscribe to my Storify feed here.

*post next Monday on how to use Storify ~ subscribe to my blog on the right sidebar so you don’t miss it!

Enjoy the tips that the Facebook experts shared:

Stellar content comes out of each and every SME event. It may be an overwhelming amount of content, but so worth the time and effort to hunker down and soak in every tidbit these pro's are so willing to share. Jealous I'm not attending this session, but grateful you're passing along key takeaways from those fab 5!

@Rebekah Radice I am grateful for the time to absorb and review before the events next week, I certainly have lots to go through and review but I love it!

I am happy to share the content as reviewing the stories from Storify really helps nail down the main points and I have any links that were shared in a handy place.

Thanks, Rebekah!
