New Facebook Advertising Campaign
My friend Harry Joiner has been banned from Facebook for uploading his e-mail address book. No warning, no explanation - just a ban and then a second e-mail saying it's final. My first thoughts are here at SeattleRecruiting, and today at StlRecruiting.
I can't say I understand the reason to ban headhunters, but certainly Facebook should at least tell people why they are banned, and allow them to correct the problem. It's possible that he was banned because Facebook bans the use of their site for promotional and advertising purposes. Seeing as over half of their members are over the age of 25, and only joined to promote their businesses and careers, it seems a poor decision to kick those people off, at least if you want to make your company anything more than a dating site for frat boys.
But who am I to argue? I've come up with a new advertising campaign for Facebook. Mark and I'll be sitting down to discuss it soon.
