Comments on: Facebook and LinkedIn – What’s the Difference? http://blog.purevisibility.com/2009/04/facebook-and-linkedin-whats-the-difference/ Fri, 03 Feb 2012 18:42:22 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Bill http://blog.purevisibility.com/2009/04/facebook-and-linkedin-whats-the-difference/comment-page-1/#comment-1545 Bill Fri, 17 Apr 2009 17:11:15 +0000 http://blog.purevisibility.com/?p=620#comment-1545 Many corporate executives consider social networking during work hours right up there with playing video games. With Facebook, I'm learning to believe that's true. But I'm giving a presentation next week to our 8-office regional company encouraging everyone to build their LinkedIn profiles and establish their network. The take-away from this presentation will be this: At a time when companies can't affort to spend much money, let's spend our time linking ourselves together as well as establishing our individual networks so that our connections are strong as a company. Once the economy begins moving again, we'll be in a good position to reach the people in industries that are growing.

I would say that Facebook works great for businesses that want a Fan Page. I've seen it benefit a growing company, and is a great place for common fans to interact - post pictures, videos, comments, etc. Once you have a sizable following, it works as a great distribution channel for updates, events, etc. Great comparison.
