    You want to have fb ads and market them? I think I did not understand precisely what are you looking for...
    Can you specify more...

      Hi fitjeff

      Create an ad, then under 'Create Your Audience', find the 'Precise Interests' field. If you start entering the name of a Facebook page here, it should appear as a suggestion. Then click that suggestion, it'll be added to the field, and you'll see on the right under 'Audience' you're now targeting people who 'like' that page

      Hope that makes sense

  • Fitjeff,

    Natino has good tips. You could also target people who have specified interests similar to what your competitors pages are about in addition to people who have already liked those pages.

    Best,

    So I have been trying that precise interests typing in the name of my "competitor" and nothing is coming up?

    Is this common?

      No suggestions? I've experienced this in the past. Facebook can be a massive pain in the ass sometimes!!

      I suppose all you can do is try searching for other pages using the precise interests box just to make sure it's working - then select one that finally does appear?

      I'm not sure. Maybe you have to like their page first? :confused:

      Worst comes to worst you could always contact the Facebook support team and ask them to help you to add the page you're after in the box there. I'm sure they'd be able to help

        Have you tried to drive free traffic from their pages yet?

        You can post comments on your competitors walls and if your comment is engaging people will click though to your page.

        If you have an eye catching profile picture you will get even more clicks (especially if you're targetting men and you have a picture of a hot woman!)

        Just a thought to save you a few $ anyway.

        Good luck!

    To get fan or to promote your product at first you have to open an fan page through your facebook id. If you have not enough friends in your facebook id then you can higher a person who can work for you with payment. If you can create fan page by yourself then you may invite your friend to like the page. Personally I have done this types of job to get fan.
