The World is Obsessed with Facebook! Is Your School on There?
If you haven’t already figured it out, the world is obsessed with Facebook! Do you know what that means? Your school better have an official presence on there that is managed all day, everyday. Having a Facebook page that is idle shows your prospects, students, graduates, and the rest of the world that your school doesn’t care. The page needs to be monitored on a daily basis and relevant information needs to be posted, too. Also, if prospects, students, or graduates are asking questions or raising concerns, someone better be posting responses in a timely fashion.
Here are some of the most interesting facts from this infographic:
*As of 2011, there are 500,000,000 active Facebook users
*48% of 18 – 34 year olds check Facebook right when they wake up
