    hi folks,

     I  am helping out my uncle who owns a foodhall in Dublin, Ireland with around 13 different food concessions – mostly small independent operators – and one of my first social media tasks is to get all the tenants using social media and offering content to the website and facebook pages / twitter account for the Epicurean Foodhall … this is the facebook page they have …

    https://www.facebook.com/EpicureanFoodHall 

    it has 189 fans … it is a community page – im told this isnt great as if it gets a big following the owner of the foodhall loses control as it is vested with the community ..

    i think it should have been just set up as a business page …

    i know that if the fans were under 100 we could just change the facebook page type and keep the fans we have …

    what do you think i should do? 
    also have you any advise for me to raise the social media profile for the foodhall – some of the tenants have little interest/knowledge of social media … i would be prepared to gather  content …. should each have their own facebook page? posting to the foodhall one?
    the food hall also have a website which im reconstucting … any features i should include?

    sorry for all the questions again,

    thanks,

    Rory

    As with my site http://ithappensinalabama.com I like what you are doing. I have a friend page and a fan page on facebook. The friend page allows me the freedom to invite people into the group, while the fan page is their choice to join me. This gives me 2 avenues and ups my audiance. What could be a great action and more money for you is to develop your website and offer each of the others to purchase a page from you that would have their own unique url and be embedded in your site. If you need help and more ideas on how to do this, but the way this monetizes your site and could put 10K or more in your pocket a month, even more if your added that you would promote across your following, but also be willing to set up their social media accounts and then It gets crazy if they want you to manage thier social media.I hope this helps.
