No wonder if you look at 1395 Facebook page ...... - oh dear !!

Having a facebook page can be a good thing and also a bad thing to something like BIG L. If the page shows many `LIKES` its a good thing but if not its a bad thing.
Im not on facebook myself but Ive seen it and seen other radio stations pages where they have 1000s of `Likes` and everything looks lively and kept up to date.
If a page shows no large interest or `Likes` its not good for that organisation or project. It gives a bad impression to anyone looking in.
Just out of interest how many `Likes` has BIG L got.

None ... absolutely none ..as ours is a group not a fan page . You cannot "like" it.

Well thats a good thing.

Alec .. no it wasnt. I set the current page up .. it was done for none of the reasons you stated. And why should it be locked up? It is not "run" at all . anyone is free to post in it!

it was originally initiated as a fan-page, to attract listeners, publicity and also advertisers for the station but has slipped into something that better belongs on a locked up private page - the way it is run now is contraproductive and won't fullfill its original purpose to propagate BigL as a professional radio station

Thats exactly what I was getting at. Facebook can be a great tool to spread the word, but in other situations it can be the nail in the coffin to others. In the past Ive seen a friends business grow only because he has a facebook page. He has a good and professional website but he gets more orders and sells more through facebook. Its a great way to advertise only because its direct to those who `Likes` you or are part of your circle. Its direct marketing at its best.

Spot on I guess Mike ... just need more of the grey haired brigade online lol ( not saying all listeners are grey haired !! ) you mey remember woody (steven blood) he set up a facebook page to advertise Big L ..had over 1000 members ..and used that to destroy things .. MA will explain lol

Not sure what you meant by `grey haired brigade` I may have a few but not at all grey haired yet. But may have more if I read anymore here.
Ive always found that theres a place for everyone, grey or not. I dont k now anything about `Woody` or what the guy did and to be truthful Im not really bothered. As I said before I stopped listening to BIG L when it came off AM. I was only talking about the benefits of facebook and what it can and can not do. Its a perfect tool for direct marketing. Its point to point advertising.
