Fan Pro Quo – A Social Experiment Aimed at Small Business Referrals

by Dave on March 4, 2010

Insomnia gave us this nifty little idea…

It’s actually not our idea, but that of a really clever guy named Larry Brauner, whose Online Social Networking site did something similar earlier this year.

Here’s how it works:

  1. You visit the Area 224 Page on Facebook.
  2. If you aren’t already a fan of Area 224, consider becoming one. No purchase necessary, valid in all 50 states and throughout the world.
  3. Then, once you’re a fan, you can post to the Area 224 Wall. SO, while you’re posting to our wall, why not post about YOUR BUSINESS? Yes, type in the name of your business or organization’s fan page, and other fans will see it.
  4. Also, while you’re there — consider checking out other companies and organizations. Maybe even become a fan.

Fan Pro Quo!

Other companies we like — like Arment Dietrich, for instance — have done some clever things (like “fan of the week”), too. So, feel free to share other fun Facebook Business Strategies while you’re on the Area 224 Page.

Cheers!

Thanks for the kudos.

I suggest that you turn on link sharing on your FB page. People are posting links anyway, but the way it is now, readers aren’t getting the partial preview that FB normally provides.

Hope your initiative is a success.

Hey Larry…

I thought we did have Link Sharing turned on – “Fans can post links” was selected. Let me know if I’m missing something…

Cheers,

Dave
