MySpace last week declared what amounts to a post-modern armistice, announcing that they will integrate status updates with Facebook (and Twitter). MySpace used to be Janet, and now it’s LaToya – at best. MySpace used to be Janet, and now it’s LaToya – at best. But back to MySpace.

It’s definitely one to play with because of its odd behavoir. For example, I unchecked Games on one of my lists, and the updates of “So and So is now friends with Them and Them plus 3 million other people” vanished from the feed.

On a particular forum I am active on (yes, I still use them!), There’s definitely more to connecting via social media than creating an account and spamming others with irrelevant messages. Small businesses can’t always follow by example, unfortunately. Don’t self promote. I noticed someone asking for advice.

At the end of the day, we know most people are active on social networks because they have some reason for being there (be it to make a sale or to establish authority, for example), but through your regular interactions, you need to recognize that these are byproducts of your genuine and authentic involvement.

To take two examples: people complain about an issue to an important newspaper prompting them to push the issue into the mainstream, or if a TV station covers an event, that becomes an important topic.

This means that if our customer is viewing our brand say for example on TV it is very essential that they meet the same personality on the internet as well. If on TV our core brand personality is projecting ourselves for example as humorous and easy going then it is crucial that in the online medium as well we have similar projection.

Share the 10OFF discount code for everyone, for example. Better yet, to show that the page is active, give the users control by letting their Fan posts show up on the front page. As a result, engagement goes up as the page appears very active. Give them a reason to be actively engaged. What if you want to offer 10% off?
