The credits were launched as part of a campaign in the U.S., tied to but not directly a part of the new Facebook Page on social media. Based on the success of the U.S. campaign, other teams around the world will be looking at doing something similar.

Kindly indicate your dealer network/showroom available in New Delhi or adjoining area so as to ensure the product before order/purchase and after sale service.

JJ,
My firm is a recent honoree of the Inc 5000, and been advising companies on how to capitalize on social media from Wells Fargo, to Plantronics to Sutter Home and many others.

To help other small & medium size businesses, can you share with us what kind of results Dell is getting from social media ads on their own and when they are targeted to run by your social media activities?

A lot of companies (small and big) are wondering about the effectiveness of social media advertising.

Thanks!

William Gaultier

It's great that Dell are establishing this network to encourage small businesses to adopt social media strategies.

A recent study in Ireland by O2 showed that only 5% of SME businesses adopt blogs and at a workshop I led for the Irish Internet Association about blogging, mucroblogging and podcasting just 6 percent of attendees had a Facebook profile.

Heather Gorringe who you mention is also a member of 'The Podcast Sisters' where through a blog and podcast share information about how to adopt social media strategies to your small business (disclosure - I am also one of the Podcast Sisters).

The one disappointment I have is that you mention that the Facebook Ads credits are only available to US companies given that Facebook itself is global and Heather who is featured is based in the UK.

Thanks for sharing this with us and I look forward to exploring the new Facebook group.
