Facebook Timeline For Business: What You May Have Missed

It has finally happened. Facebook said they were going to switch all brand pages to the new Timeline format on March 30th and they did not lie (unlike when they said they would switch personal profiles to Timeline right away). The new format brings new opportunities, new challenges, and new strategy for brand pages.

Get Educated:
We wanted to make sure your company was on the top of your game for the switchover. Last week we hosted a free Facebook Timeline for Business Webinar to show what’s new, what has changed, and how it will affect your business. If you missed the webinar, don’t worry, we recorded the whole thing. You can watch the video below or visit the webinar YouTube page and skip to specific parts.

Get Designed:
With the switch to Timeline format this month you could imagine that we might be a bit busy switching the CWS page and the pages of our clients. But, when faced with a new challenge, many new ideas arise. You can see a few examples of how our talented designers adapted clients Facebook pages to Timeline.

Get Inspired:
Since Timeline was first announced, I have seen some interesting ways companies have used the new functionality. That being said, I want to list a few of the most creative examples I have seen below. And perhaps you'll come up with the new great idea for Timeline. Enjoy!
