Has Facebook changed the way you do business?
 

This show was the first show that I've felt the facebook effect in how we do business. For the first time at a show people were calling me by my first name instead of Shap. Also, people I had never met before knew who I was without looking at my badge. I find facebook has made things more personal and has been a great tool for business. It is definitely the quickest form of communication and seems to really help get business rolling and create a solid working relationship.

Anybody else experiencing the same?

Not really. I think it's just Myspace for grown ups.

I'm always the last one to catch on to stuff like this. Maybe I need to setup a facebook profile :(

Facebook apps are a great way to get targeted traffic.

Also, facebook ads are the solution to some (depending on your niche) Google's Slap of 'low quality' landing pages

Barely use Facebook.

Yeah Facebook is great for business people. Not so much models (at least from my experience). The only bitch is managing family, friends, acquaintances and business contacts.

I only have real friends and a couple family on facebook, not sure I want to mix biz on there.

You can make lists for your friends and categorize them that way, that's what I do. (adult industry, family, BC, Ontario)
As for doing business with facebook? Nah, not really. I don't actually have anyone in my list that I haven't met face to face at least once already.

Myspace on the other hand, I don't know who half the people are in my list there :1orglaugh

never used it and don't plan on it

I assure you that you will sign up before me because I am "officially" the last one to find out about anything.

what ever happened to tripod and xoom? used to be the cool thing in the mid 90's ;-)

I dont even have a facebook page.

I haven't really started using it yet.

:2 cents:

What is this book of faces that you speak of?

facebook blows glad it worked out for you.

I set one up about 6 months ago and added 4 people. Today I decided to try searching for old friends and it is crazy how quickly you can find people through the network. I have chatted and called people that I haven't seen in 15 years.

Crazy.

your real name is not shap?

I twitter all my business...

I use it for personal only. I try to keep the professional stuff off of there and maybe that is hurting me?
