STUDY: 1 In 5 Of Facebook Contacts Are Work Related

A new study shows why it's a good idea to embrace business etiquette on Facebook, especially if you work in advertising or marketing.

Almost half of all advertising and marketing executives use Facebook for business, and about one fifth of these folks’ friend lists are professional contacts.

That’s the gist of a survey of 500 people by the Creative Group, which interviewed about 500 people in the industry.

Based on its findings, the Creative Group recommends that advertising and marketing executives use business etiquette when on Facebook.

And we wholeheartedly agree with the company’s suggestions, which we think are relevant for people in all industries, not just advertising and marketing.
