4.0 out of 5 stars Facebook Marketing, July 29 2010

(HALL OF FAME)    (TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Facebook Marketing: Designing Your Next Marketing Campaign (Paperback)
I think a lot of businesses and entrepreneurs are still a bit wary about Facebook. Without a doubt, Facebook is the focal point of a lot of activity with many potential customers waiting to hear about your product. Unfortunately, the open communication that makes Facebook great doesn't always connect well with keeping private and public lives separate.

Facebook Marketing clarifies the pros and cons of marketing on Facebook. It then goes into detail about how to market successfully on and off the site. Moreover, the book doesn't just cover creating an account and adding pictures of your dog. It looks into how to create attractive pages, placing ads on Facebook, and even creating Facebook apps. In this way, the book provides a nice overview of a variety of promotional options.

1.0 out of 5 stars great guide on how to use facebook, marketing value absolutely zero, Aug 20 2010
By Marc - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Facebook Marketing: Designing Your Next Marketing Campaign (Paperback)
Bought this book because it promises it will teach you a thing or two about Facebook Marketing, soon i realized this book was written for those who have spend the last 5 years on the bottom of the ocean or any other place without no access to the internet.

The whole book is a collection of screenshots on how to setup a facebook account, how to create a page, how to post something, how to share a picture, etc. all basic stuff which is pretty straight forward and has nothing to do with marketing.
In fact he doesn't touch marketing at all in this book apart from how to setup an add campaign and create a group.
The real life examples aren't real life examples. screenshots of blank reports, what will it tell us?

I mean, why spent an entire chapter on facebook's marketplace if you mention already in the first paragraph that this can not be used for any commercial messages, then why bother? its only useful if you having a personal garage sale.

Its obvious this book is written by a computer geek, who is not a professional marketer. Its written for people who don't know anything about facebook and have no clue what online marketing is. It is certainly not for a marketing professionals. I would be surprised if they would take something away from this book. Therefore wouldn't recommend this book to anyone who is looking for facebook marketing tricks, pretty sure there are better books out there written by people who actually ran a marketing campaign or two on Facebook.

5.0 out of 5 stars A very valuable book, Aug 3 2010
By Reg Nordman "(K)nights on the Road" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Facebook Marketing: Designing Your Next Marketing Campaign (Paperback)
The second edition of a very valuable book that encompasses all the changes to Facebook to date. I found his chapter on setting up Pages to be very valuable. He goes into great detail showing you how to make your corporate Facebook page a valuable marketing asset. One chapter of best practices is worth the price of the book. Easy read, worth the time investment

4.0 out of 5 stars An excellent intro into Facebook Marketing, Oct 31 2010
By C. Miller "IdoNotes" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Facebook Marketing: Designing Your Next Marketing Campaign (Paperback)
The maze that corporations, and even individuals, maneuver through in Facebook is daunting when it comes to marketing strategy and implementation. Justin R. Levy makes it seem so simple in his second edition of Facebook Marketing: Designing Your Next Marketing Campaign. This is through the published Que, and is available on Amazon as well.

I worked through the pages quickly, even folding corners on pages I really found value in. I was shocked to see the number of them I flagged when I had completed the book. It made me realize this book of less than 200 pages answered many questions I personally had about how best to market across Facebook.

The author starts the book with a quick 5 page summary on social network growth and then a required 25 pages for anyone new to Facebook. I know it seems strange, but there is those that have never been in Facebook yet. So this snapshot is always important. The author even suggests you skip that chapter is you know it already.

Chapter 3 begins the knowledge transfer of building a corporate presence and deciding between pages and groups. Throughout the book he does a great job of explaining why one would be better in certain circumstances over the other. Promotion of the page is key in any company advertising and he makes a quick case for ways to build a following through grass roots.

Interestingly, he also jumped into Facebook Connect in Chapter 4, which you do not see many corporate sites using. I know his main focus was on the sharing aspect but he also addressed single sign on. Chapter 5 focused on advertising and the best ways to invest to build your presence in Facebook. The strategy talk continued in Chapter 8-10.

He crammed Chapter 7 on Privacy in the middle. I personally would have liked at the end for flow of the marketing piece. In saying that, privacy and account management is key when promoting company information. He explains the need for individual account, with more than one person having the ability to administrate the group or page for the company marketing.

Overall, I would recommend this book to anyone looking into Facebook marketing. Whether you are an individual through giant corporation.
