Facebook page

This week in the lab for Ales 204 we were given the opportunity to create professional Facebook pages. I have been using Facebook for about 4 years to keep in touch with friends near and far though had never thought of creating a page. The layout and set up of the page was simple and strait-forward. I would recommend it to anyone looking to advertise their business and keep in touch with clients while gaining new ones.

One Facebook page I frequent is the Dalai Lama's page, full of insightful advice, check it out:

http://www.facebook.com/DalaiLama

We were instructed to fill the page with information that would be found on a resume: skills, education, work and volunteer experience. However we were also able to include personal interests which is often not included in a resume, and it makes the information much more personal than just chronology of employment. The addition of a photo makes the page enjoyable to look at while putting a face to the information given.

This page will help me in the future by allowing me to advertise skills and experience relevant to a work or volunteer positions I seek. It will also allow all my Facebook friends to stay current on my career goals and achievements. I plan to use the page to share with friends, and whoever may be interested, information I choose to share regarding nutrition. This page helps to connect my personal life with my business life, while allowing me to be in control of how much of each I choose to share.

My page can be found at:

I recommend you also take a look one of my classmates blogs: Clara T is also in nutrition and I look forward to reading the information she will be posting!
