Business TV network: What use is Facebook to business, really?
Bristol, UK ( NewDesignWorld ) December 8, 2008 -With over 100 million registered users, Facebook has now taken over MySpace's position as the top dog of social networking websites. Online business TV network yourBusinessChannel is currently producing a new series of business TV shows focused on helping businesses to make the most of the Facebook phenomenon. The shows will be based around interviews and tips from the world's leading business experts (http://www.yourbusinesschannel.com/section.aspx?section=networking&m=1) in social networking.
With its uncluttered user interface, and older user demographic, Facebook seems to be a much better 'fit' with the business world than MySpace, and sure enough, many small businesses are creating profiles for themselves. However, while it doesn't take a genius to see that such a huge network holds great potential for businesses looking to connect with their public, most entrepreneurs need expert business advice to make the most of the opportunities Facebook offers, according to Features Editor with the business TV channel (http://www.yourbusinesschannel.com/contact.aspx?m=6), Mark Sinclair. "Obviously there are hundreds or thousands of potential customers using Facebook, but that's only useful if you know how to connect with them."
But there's more to using Facebook than boosting sales, says Sinclair. "For businesspeople who know what they're doing, Facebook can be used for anything from raising the profile of a brand, to developing a sense of community among existing customers, to seeking advice and inspiration from business heroes."
While the series is still in production, Sinclair says the door is still open for new business experts to contribute to the shows. "We'll be drawing from our existing pool of the world's leading business experts in the field of social media, networking, and digital marketing to produce this business TV series. However, we're always interested in hearing from new business experts, especially those with great expertise in using Facebook to build business. Our business TV shows are promoted to in excess of 10 million businesspeople worldwide."
Business experts who want to contribute to these shows should contact the editorial team at editorial.c@ybc.tv for further information. The schedule for yourBusinessChannel's Facebook series will be announced later this month.
