We know that sounds ominous—and we’re committed that it’s not for our cleints and readers. To ease the transition, we’re including some of the best resources we’ve discovered with regard to the changes, including a free web conference THIS THURSDAY, MARCH 26th (details below) to address your specific concerns and needs.

The 7 changes affecting Facebook business pages are:

  1. Cover Photo and Profile Image Use size and Restrictions on messaging
  2. Larger, Highlighted and Pinned Posts – 7-day max pinning
  3. Setting Company Milestones – telling the story of your business
  4. Out with Default Landing Page, in with Applications (formerly Tabs)
  5. Facebook Offers – think freebies and free giveaways
  6. Facebook Insights, Admin Panel and Messaging – different location and look
  7. Facebook Advertising – larger ads, more reach

We attended an online introductory seminar through Social Fresh the day these changes were publicly announced. You can view that same training video  here:   PLEASE NOTE: you will be required by Social Fresh to exchange your contact information in order to access this webinarhttp://www.socialfreshacademy.com/fe/22127-webinar
