17. Let’s take 15 mins to get familiar with Facebook

18. Profiles v Pages Profile is for your personal use, it is like talking to a friend, there is a two way flow of communication Pages is like walking into a shop. You can share what you have on offer, without anyone that follows you, giving up their personal information And.. Pages are managed by people who have personal Timelines. Pages are not separate Facebook accounts and do not have separate login information from your Timeline.

19. Like a friend's profile, Facebook Pages enable public figures, businesses, organisations and other entities to create an authentic and public presence on Facebook. Unlike your profile, Facebook Pages are visible to everyone on the internet by default. You, and every person on Facebook, can connect with these Pages by becoming a fan and then receive their updates in your News Feed and interact with them. Facebook Groups are the place for small group communication and for people to share their common interests and express their opinion. Groups allow people to come together around a common cause, issue or activity to organise, express objectives, discuss issues, post photos and share related content. Groups can be publicly available for anyone to join, require administrator approval for members to join or can be private and by invitation only. Like with Pages, new posts by a group are included in the News Feeds of its members and members can interact and share with one another from the group. versus “Should I create a group or launch a Page?”

22. Business and Facebook Social media, whether you’re an adopter, addict or a hater, is now a critical part of total communication and should form a part of your overall business strategy. BUT, if you’re going to use it for your business… Know your audience, stay on message and ENGAGE Determine who you want to connect with and why Start slowly – search for conversations and engage in meaningful dialogue Find common values and use values‐based messages to build trust. Don’t just advertise and sell or use SM as a soapbox. Recognize and respect differences and avoid conversations where you won’t move the needle….instead, help educate and inform. Think before you post – if you wouldn’t say it to someone’s face, don’t say it on SM. Admit when you don’t know Be honest and transparent: You will be held accountable Determine how you’re going to measure success Post regularly (at least 2-3 times a week)

23. Primum Non Nocere – first do no harm Adjust your privacy settings Be cautious about what you post and who could see it (eg. criminals casing out premises when people post about being on holidays) The internet is forever; think about what you post, who you tag and what photos you put up. What happens on Facebook doesn’t always stay on Facebook (employer, friend and industry visibility) Unverified information and upholding the law online (defamation, privacy) Confidentiality Don’t assume everyone you know is online- don’t forget to use other mediums of communication too
