And if there’s any question about whether or not your business needs a Facebook Business Page, the answer is: Yes. 80 million other businesses are already finding success on Facebook. And data shows that consumers rely a lot on social media to influence their purchase decisions.

So don’t miss the opportunity to connect with your target market in a meaningful (and measurable) way on Facebook—turning strangers into fans and followers and then into online bookings or guests, and ultimately into happy customers and brand evangelists.

If you already have a Facebook Business Page for your tourism business, you should review it right now against set-up best practices to make sure you aren’t missing any opportunities for customization and optimization. And if you don’t have one, you should set one up right away.

REMEMBER: It’s possible to create a Facebook Business Page in minutes, but actually each of the Page’s components should be given very careful consideration. After all, your Page will be an important representation of your business. (And often it’ll be the first place people meet (and make decisions about) your brand.)

So make it good (engaging, complete, consistent and complementary) and ensure that all pieces (branding, imagery, copy etc.) are set-up with your social media marketing goals, target audiences and key messaging in mind.
