Evenbrite has completed a study showing that Facebook drives more ticket sales that using Twitter to tweet the message. So I ask the question are small businesses using Facebook to the full potential? Are small businesses missing out on opportunities to get more bang for the buck?

The study, which used in-house social analytics tools to track ticket sales on the site, was a continuation of a similar analysis the company released in October after analyzing data from a 12-week period. That study also indicated Facebook drove more sales for Eventbrite than Twitter, although the difference between the two networks’ sales per post was greater at that point than throughout the entire six-month period (the “value” of tweets increased).
The goal of a small business using Facebook, is the create a Fan Page and then start using the “Event Calendar to invite people, clients, customers, etc to the event.

I fully respect the need of some to separate out their lives so that they can maintain separation between the areas of their life, and my opinion is that spending time filtering and segmenting your social graph takes away from the very benefits that happen when your social graph is bigger.

I think there are two specific benefits to increasing the size of your social graph: … Read More
