Everyone knows what Facebook is. Your grandparents even have a Facebook page, chances are your customers have a facebook page… well the customers YOU want do. In terms of demographics, if a prospective customer has a Facebook page you know something about them, at a bare minimum you know they probably have a good job, probably are college educated, probably have a credit card
…do you really want to sell to people that do NOT have a credit card? What do you think your chances of making a profit would be if the customers you were attempting to attract did not have credit, or didn’t have a job?
Not every industry can take full advantage of exposure to the vast Facebook community, the target market of certain types of stores for example deal in what political correctness terms the “disaffected”, for example a local latin market or a beer and wine store in the seedier side of the tracks… it’s a safe bet their ‘money customers” aren’t on Facebook. State highway contractors, for example get their work from Government bids, so being on Facebook doesn’t make much sense for them.

There are 2 main reasons for your company getting on Facebook:
One is obvious, the other not so obvious.
1) Access to the 300 million facebook users
2) The fact that Google Ranks Company Facebook Pages effectively giving you 2 listings in Google: one for your main website (which should be a blog, not a static website), the other Google listing is for your companies Facebook Fan Page.
