Learn How To Market Your Tourism Business on Facebook. Facebook is a massive social networking site. By it’s very nature, Facebook lets people connect up to groups, people, events and fan pages, based on their interests. On the other hand, Facebook lets marketers connect up to people using Facebook Ads, based on the interests they have expressed through word, and by preferences they have indicated through action. Recently I have been working with two artists to help them connect up with people by using Facebook as a starting platform. These artists are local watercolour painters with amazing skill and a small inventory of beautiful paintings to sell. They have an established and growing reputation, and need an online presence to help promote their work. They are both new to Facebook, and don’t have a history of personal data on their profiles. In fact, they haven’t been actively growing their friends list at all. This is good – both artists were OKay with the idea of using a business page on Facebook as a marketing tool – and only use their personal profile as a personal way to connect with family.
