It doesn't have much included on it yet but it is a start. My Question: How do you suggest Pages to People?

Also post you fan page link on your web page and on your marketing materials and you will find that fans of Facebook will join. Don't forget to post meaningful content to keep them coming back. I became a fan and am looking forward to your business posts. __________________ Lee Drozak My Office Assistant

I will check it out tonight. Just thought if I was able to get a few fans in there, it would look more entising to others to join. My plan is to post discussions on different Business and Tax Issues to keep them coming back. Time will tell if it works. If you have suggestions along the way, please let me know. Thanks Robyn __________________ Wiemer's Business Services LLC

Is there any way that "John Q Public" can search for my page? I would like to get out of my circle of supportive friends to find out if the "real world" would become a fan...how does that work? Is that only done through taking out an ad? Thank you in advance! Dee
