I was doing a bit of personal research tonight and decided to check something. I decided to see just what type of presence the actual manufactures had on Facebook. I am not talking the dealers, but actual manufacturers.
Here are the "likes" or "friends" that each of the manufacturers have as of 11:30pm on May 15, 2012:
Minelab - 2,902
Garrett - 2,441
Whites - 486
Tesoro - 54
Fisher - No Official Facebook Page that I could find
Teknetics - No Official Facebook Page that I could find
Bounty Hunter - No Official Facebook Page that I could find
First Texas - No Official Facebook Page that I could find
There is a lot being missed in marketing here. With one of the major metal detector dealers having over 11,000 "likes", I know that these manufacturers could be doing more in marketing.
This probably doesn't mean much to many, but online marketing strategies is becoming more and more mainstream in the field that I hope to get into.
Mods - If this is in the wrong place, please move it where it belongs.
Thanks,
Doug
