Record Those Memorable Milestones
Facebook’s latest addition allows brands to showcase their rich history, going as far back as January 1, 1800. Â Found on the right-side of the Facebook page, the milestones are listed vertically by year and when clicked on open to display full screen photos with content, location and time.
Milestone Tips

No Middleman: Foster Consumer-to-Brand Contact
Fans can now communicate with brands directly via private messages. Small businesses can use this messaging feature, found on the admin panel, as a channel to start collecting feedback and engaging customers.
Capitalize on Central Control
The admin panel allows brands to manage their insights, new “likes,†messages and notifications from one central location. The admin panel provides a snapshot of a brand’s day-to-day activity:
Insights — Houses your Facebook brand page’s analytics, which includes “likes,†reach and how people are talking about your page
New “Likes†— Lists Facebook users who have recently liked your page
Messages — Manage your private messages from fans
Notifications — You will be notified when users interact on your page
Remember: Timeline goes live on March 30. It’s time to tell your story.
