Default Automated Facebook Message
Is there a way to automate replies to Friend requests? I'm trying to move people from a personal page to a fan page.

I've received messages that appear to be automated from people in similar situations but am not sure how it was done.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

I am also trying to find out how to attach a signature to my personal page responses so that I can feed people over to my fan page - any ideas?

I'm not aware of a automated FB responder. Not saying there's not one out there though.

I'm not a fan of automated responses. It can really be a turn-off to Social Media users. They go to those sites looking to make connections.

If someone request to be my friend on FB and I feel it's relavant I simply suggest they become a fan of my fanpage.

Maybe someone else here knows of a automated responder for FB

There isn't one that I know of either. And if there was, I wouldn't use it anyway. Kena is right, it's a social networking site for connecting personally with people. Automated messages aren't personal.

You can post the link to your Fan page in a status update or in a message from your inbox or in a comment on your Wall.

Thanks Ladies. I agree with you completely - it was a client that was insisting to know the answer to this one. I delicately explained the fact that social networking is suppose to be more personal and she seemed to understand this time! Thanks again.

not that this is for auto response, but www.hootsuite.com does help to keep track of your social media response and feedback on one page
