How do you get likes on a business Facebook page?

[TyroneVickery29]

Ok, no idea where to post this thread. Our family has a small business selling vintage antiques and homewares so we thought we would set up a Facebook page. Was just wondering if anyone had any tips on building up the page and the likes.

Any feedback is appreciated, thanks

You can pay for advertising if you want. Other than that its just through posting, sharing and hopefully enough people notice. Trying to post something that will get peoples attention may help. Personally I dont think Facebook is that good for promoting businesses.

Seems like word's traveled a bit as I just had a look at the page and I've got a mutual friend that's liked the page, and they live 5 mins from me and we're no where near Ballarat

Useful links, blogs, and posts will bring in likes. Give people value for clicking, and they will like the page and share it to friends. Look for viral articles that may have already been written that you could link to, and that current page likers will comment on - this will bump the post on their feed, and hopefully generate visitors from their friends list.

Be responsive and available. Even if it's just a "thanks for posting" message to someone who posts to your page, the key to a successful business Facebook page is engaging the potential customer. If they don't see you responding to their comments and posts, they will lose interest.

Also, look at linking up with experts in the field/other stores in different communities. Connect with the vintage community as a whole, including going to similar businesses in communities outside of yours and liking their page.

Hope that helps.

Post on all your local community pages. Buy swap and sell pages. Things like that. Spruke on other antiques pages.

I went from 30 likes by friends to over 700 in 18 months directly from fb buy n sell pages.

It's brought in dozens of jobs and accounts for about 40% of my work coming in.

Free give a aways and compititions bring in the most likes. I've done 3 comps with one bringing in 130 new likes in 14 days.

If your product or service is aimed at woman, fb is really worth giving a test to see if it brings new prospects.
