Determining which social media site is right for you
Conduct a Social Media Audit (aka survey)
Before you jump-in to SMM, be sure to conduct a social media audit
among your current clients. Which sites do they use? This will help
you to narrow your focus to the sites which will likely pay the
greatest dividends.
TCB Tip: SurveyMonkey.com offers a free survey tool. Create your
survey, then upload your contacts email addresses. They’ll email your
contacts an invitation to participate in the survey. Other web-based
survey applications are available through email service providers like
Constant Contact.

E. Promotions
If you use Facebook to communicate about or administer a promotion (such as a contest or sweepstakes), you are
responsible for the lawful operation of that promotion, including the official rules, offer terms and eligibility
requirements (e.g., age and residency restrictions), and compliance with regulations governing the promotion
and all prizes offered in connection with the promotion (e.g., registration and obtaining necessary regulatory
approvals). Please note that compliance with these guidelines does not constitute the lawfulness of a
promotion. Promotions are subject to many regulations and if you are not certain that your promotion
complies with applicable law, please consult with an expert.
i. Promotions on Facebook must be administered within Apps on Facebook.com, either on a Canvas Page or a Page
App.
ii. Promotions on Facebook must include the following:
a. A complete release of Facebook by each entrant or participant.
b. Acknowledgment that the promotion is in no way sponsored, endorsed or administered by, or associated
with, Facebook.

Facebook.
iii. You must not condition registration or entry upon the user taking any action using any Facebook features or
functionality other than liking a Page, checking in to a Place, or connecting to your app. For example, you
must not condition registration or entry upon the user liking a Wall post, or commenting or uploading a photo
on a Wall.
iv. You must not use Facebook features or functionality as a promotion’s registration or entry mechanism. For
example, the act of liking a Page or checking in to a Place cannot automatically register or enter a promotion
participant.

promotion.
