What are Facebook events and why are they important?

Facebook events are one of the most powerful tools you can use on Facebook. A Facebook event is a place to do online invites. From free tele-classess to a live speaking engagement to a virtual conference, you can organize and publicize any event. It’s a wonderful way to let others know who you are and what you offer and to attract new people into your tribe. To create more buzz about your event, choose a really catchy title, subtitle, and photo for your event. Choose a great photo or several photos that will draw people in; your smiling face usually works best. Upload a video sharing what your event is all about. Spread the word by clicking on “Share” and “Post To Your Profile.” Sharing lets you invite specific friends or lists. Facebook takes a tally for you of who is coming. Be sure to send out reminders before the event – this is going to be fun! What event can you host to build relationships and get your important message out there?
