Earlier this week, we shared that 41% of businesses surveyed in AT&T's Small Business Technology survey are currently using Facebook and that this represents a 51% increase over last year. As more business are starting to use Facebook, marketers will be faced with the challenge of blending their personal and business lives online.
For many, this adjustment is a hard one. We all have things we want to share with our friends, that we might not want our co-workers. Facebook lists are a wonderful way to separate your personal friends from your business acquaintances, however many don't know how to use them.
Here is a helpful video to walk you through the process of setting up a limited profile list in Facebook, and adjusting your Facebook Privacy Settings to ensure you are only showing your best side.

The issue of privacy has been there for quite a long time now. And when it comes to using Facebook for business, it has to be practiced at the higher level. I guess this is the primary reason that is disallowing major companies, especially B2B, for opening on this popular platform.
