You’ve seen the buzz – Facebook is all the rage!

With more than 400 million active users, Facebook is THE PLACE to be seen by people and businesses.  This creates a ripe opportunity for you to start or expand your virtual assistance business by creating and maintaining Facebook Fan Pages.

Businesses large and small are looking for ways to leverage their Facebook Fan Pages, and why shouldn’t they?  According to Facebook’s Press Room Statistics – the numbers are reason enough to get involved ASAP!

• 50% of active users log in everyday (that’s 200 million people!)
• More than 35 million users update their status everyday
• More than 5 billion pieces of content (web links, news stories, blog posts, notes, photo albums, etc.) shared each week
• More than 20 million people become fans of Pages each day
• More than 1.5 million local businesses have active Pages on Facebook
• Pages have created more than 5.3 billion fans

So, it stands to reason that business are looking for help – your help to create great Facebook Fan Pages.  But creating a great Facebook Fan Page is only the beginning.  Businesses need to ENGAGE their Fans.  They need them to come back to their Fan Page to see updates, click on their links, opt-in for their great FREE content, watch their videos, attend their events — and BUY their stuff!

All of these actions take a great marketing plan to start, implement and maintain.

I’ll share with you a somewhat embarrassing story:

I tried to create a Facebook Group page last year for someone.  I had NO idea what I was doing.  I tried to figure out how to create a group, engage people to join our group, set up events, the works.  It bombed.  It bombed BIG.

I can tell you first hand that it’s not a good idea to “wing it”.  I only wish that I had some instruction, some insight, some HELP to do that.  I didn’t even know that Facebook Groups were so “yesterday”.  That’s how little I knew…

Well, the good news is, that help is now available!  VAClassroom Fantastic Fan Page Mini Course is just the thing you need to learn how to create a Fantastic Fan Page.  Not only that, but it will teach you marketing methods and techniques to get your fans to come back, engage with you and help create loyal fans.  You know, the ones that talk about you and recommend their friends become your fan too!

This course can help you start your virtual assistance business, or expand your list of services.  Even though the course is only 2 weeks, you’ll be prepared to tackle the task with success!  Plus, as an added bonus, their is the social network for all course participants so you can ask questions and converse.  There’s a lot of great “nuggets” of information in the social network.  And the best part is, once you sign up for the course, you have access to it, all the updates and the social network – FOREVER!

As I have mentioned before, I think VAClassroom has the best training programs on the internet PERIOD.  But this course is also special in a lot of ways because it’s not just for virtual assistants.  Anyone can take this course (or any of VAClassroom’s courses for that matter.) But the Facebook Fan Pages Mini Course is really great for anyone that has any type of  business.  Maybe you work for a large company that has been talking about creating a Facebook Fan Page, or maybe the company has one but it’s not very active.  You can take this course and learn how to make your Fan Page everything you want it to be.
