I have just started using facbook lists, they make it so much easier, especially as in business our friends start growing.
Great video to reinforce why they are a lifesaver
Thank you Maureen. Appreciate you sharing how Facebook lists are helping to
make things easier for you. And are you finding if you want to communicate
even a blog post to just a certain list of business friends on Facebook, it
is a great way to do that?
I had always my share of trouble with the technicalities of social networking. Thanks for such a great tip!
You are welcome Hajrak. I hope this tip will help to take out some of the
trouble and make it a little easier for your social networking. I plan on
sharing more tips and information that will help to automate and make our
business lives a little easier! Thank you for stopping by.
Yes..and my name is Hajra….somethings wrong with disqus…shows it as hajrak!
Oh I am sorry about that Hajra! Thank you for letting me know, and I won’t
go by what Disqus tells me anymore.
Oh wow–I’ve never even thought of using Facebook lists! They should be a necessity for me right now. My Facebook is completely overwhelming me. Thank you SO much for this post!
It is the little tools that help us to keep the sanity of building our
business! I am so glad Jenny that this will benefit you. I wish I only
understood Facebook lists when I set up my account, but now I am finding it
to be a very organized way in handling friends, business friends and
messages. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on this.
I have all my friends in lists…it allows me to grab a list and only read the statuses for that particular list. GREAT tool!
That’s awesome Leona and I agree with you, it is an great tool!
Great post. I am still getting used to using lists on FB
I think that is what’s key Melissa …. just keep using them and you will
see how they will help you with your business. Let me know if you have any
questions or want to throw around some ideas.

Great post! The longer FB is in existence, the more tools become available. It’s a full time job just trying to keep up. Lists are useful and thanks for the clear explanation about the why’s and how’s.
I agree Martha it is almost a full time job keeping up with Facebook and all
the other social sites. But as Facebook continues to grow, I hope they
continue to bring out these cool tools that will make our business life
easier! Thanks for stopping by and appreciate you sharing your thoughts.

Nice post, Melanie! There are probably many different features that I am not familiar with on FB but now that I know I can see how having lists would be useful!
Thank you Sweepy. I try to share as much as I can, especially when I learn of how some features can really make our business lives easier! Appreciate your stopping and being a part of the conversation.
LOVE LOVE LOVE FB lists, they are my lifesavers!
Awesome Alyssa. And as you can see, I am a “Fan” too – lol
Oh this really helps me out..it makes so much more sense to me. Now, can someone please tell Facebook not to change it before I totally get the hang of it? lol
Thank you for putting all of this in video! Seeing what is going on helps some of us visual learners a great deal.
That is so true …. hopefully Facebook won’t ‘change’ again, well, at least for maybe another 6 months! Glad the video on Facebook Lists was helpful. I am a visual person too so I understand the need for more video instead of a 3 part instructional guide! Thanks for leaving your thoughts on this topic.
Great video, Lynn. I use Facebook lists as well to keep track of my friends. I know I could use it more effectively when I post or send messages though. Thanks for the reminder!
Appreciate you stopping in Leanne. Glad to hear that you are already using
Facebook lists. I was hoping it would be a good reminder to know lists are
a good way to manage and send messages to targeted business friends. So
please feel free to share with your followers. Thank you so much.
Thank-you Lynn for this information. Facebook lists are a great way to target your audience and categorize your friends. I wish there was a way to have the business friends posts only be seen by other business friends, instead of everybody. Do you have any suggestions for getting business friends to transfer over to fans on your fan page?
Thanks Jeannette for your thoughts and comments. I agree, I wish Facebook would get on board on how important of a tool Facebook is for businesses.
I use the ‘sugget to friends’ link to ask my ‘friends’ to join and like my business Fan Page. I just made a video showing the step by step on that process. You can view it here on YouTube http://youtu.be/Yv7cvfAGt-A
OR if you belong to groups on Linkedin, I have been sending personal invites to the members of the group which has brought awarenes about my fan page and most important, my business.
Let me know if you have already tried those options or if you might have some other suggestions as well. Thanks again for stopping by!
