Element Three

Nearly everyone who works at Element Three has a personal Facebook page, but it has never felt right to me to have a corporate page. And, I have never been able to articulate exactly why Element Three does not have a Facebook page for our organization, until now.

I ran across this explanation that another agency had posted about their reason for not having a corporate Facebook presence - and thought it was perfect.

Here is what was posted by Agency Park & Co, a branding and marketing agency located in Phoenix, AZ.

Park&Co's Facebook effort is going dark. I know you rely on us for tons of compelling industry and agency news but I'm sorry to say you're going to have to wait awhile before you see us again.

Before panic sets in let me explain. It's not that we don't have time or we don't think the medium is valuable, it's that we're done posting underwhelming news and links you can find a number of other places. And let's be honest, you don't sign on to Facebook to see our next birthday celebration photo or snarky quip.

Facebook is a valuable medium and one that a bunch of us here at Park&Co love and use regularly. But we love it because it's a place to share and connect with friends, to see what's happening in their lives and to broadcast the highlights from ours.

So until we can come up with a really good reason to have a Facebook page for the agency (and we're working on it), we're going dark. Despite our Facebook darkness there are still a bunch of places you can connect with us starting with our website - http://parkandco.com/

What are your thoughts on corporate Facebook pages?
