Tuesday Tips: Add Adminstrators/Managers to Your Fan Pages

At the beginning of March we provided a tutorial on how to add staff to Facebook fan pages.  Later this week, we'll add a tutorial for adding administrators to Google+ Pages and then to LinkedIn as well.  Today's tip, however, pertains to the previous and upcoming tutorials.

Add other administrators/managers/staff to your page(s).  This will allow them to post, respond and advertise for your page.

This is important for a small business, community or fanpage.  Often you and your staff are busy with other projects (I know I am) and having multiple people having access can allow them to take some of the load off your shoulders when it comes to maintaining a social media presence and engaging your fans.

And now, you don't have to worry about knowing who posted what - at least on Facebook.  Facebook now shows admins who of the admins/managers posted what to the page and who responded to who on the page - which can help deter negative engagement from staff too.  Remember, you want to try to stay as positive as possible with your fans on Facebook - even if they piss you off.

Facebook has several roles for page staff to assume, not just admin, so be sure to consider that when you add staff to a page.

As always, remember that admin's have a lot of power - be sure those you make admin are those you can trust.
