I recently read that Facebook has the largest group of “dissatisfied customers.” How unhappy are you to use Facebook and do you use it more because you “have to” to stay with the current trends?

I do like Facebook @matthewoneill I think that many of the people who don’t like it aren’t on it enough and are confused when it keeps changing every time the log in. But I think it’s amazing.

People who don’t like Facebook don’t use it so it doesn’t really matter, right? From a business perspective you have to love the insights data that is given. Email marketing never gave us a real indicator of what our clients “liked” but now they get to tell you directly.

@matthewoneill
I taught a Facebook workshop to adults yesterday and everyone shared one word or phrase that described their current feeling about Facebook. Only two of the attendees said, “Love it.”
Most people responded with words such as, Frustrated. Confused. Angry. Overwhelmed.

@matthewoneill I really enjoy Facebook both personally and professionally. I understand why so many get frustrated with all of the changes so frequent on Facebook and some usage unreliability but once those who get frustrated take the time to learn the functionality and how to use it best I feel they will also embrace it.

I have not been able to love Facebook. But I keep trying. Other people seem to love it so, I guess they can’t all be wrong.

@laurachristianson, I believe you but am a little surprised – especially since if that’s how they feel, why do they persist? It’s free after all. But I do understand their frustration. It’s huge and by the time you get used to one set of bells and whistles, they change them. So far I think all the changes have been for the better though. It’s almost like having a website without having a website. As you can tell, I like it – even though I’m far from using it to full capacity yet.

I think it depends on the business. For example, a retail store probably benefits greatly by being able to send offers and announcements to their fans/customers. Businesses that offer an intangible service, don’t have a physical “store” or who don’t necessarily market to the same audience each time might not get the same benefit.

@stonepeople Patricia – You asked, if that’s how they feel, why do they persist?
In the case of my students, persisting wasn’t the issue. They were all just attempting to get started with a Facebook business page, so some of their comments were based on their experiences using their personal profile, or Facebook’s regular updating of its features, or on things others had told them.
My goal during the class was to help assuage some of their fears and to help them feel more confident about using Facebook.
