WWYD - Facebook (personal + business accounts)

I currently have a personal account on facebook, and a business page.

Right now, my personal account includes some of my clients/vendors, etc. whereas my business page others can "like" and I can only "like" other pages.

I really feel like my personal page should ONLY be personal and not business...but I feel if I start deleting clients (past + present) then they might get insulted. I don't mind so much my past clientele b/c I like to know what's going on post-wedding (ie: baby news, updates, etc.) - but I feel that if I keep my current clients on (or accepting them as friends) I may expose myself to something that's not so "professional" and it's almost like they know "too much" about me....

WWYD?

Get another page for just your friends and invite only those people who you want to be included in that..

leave the other page that has the mix of friends and busines alone..

You can create lists for groups of people and when you update your status, just select which group you want to see what you have posted.

I agree with getting another page & phasing out your old page.

I use the lists too but I no longer trust FB's every changing privacy policies.

ITA. Make your new "friend" page with you first and middle name so clients/vendors can't find you on a name searchChat Icon Chat Icon

Re: WWYD - Facebook (personal + business accounts)

I am in the same boat.

I have some "professional" friends in my personal FB but I want to move them over.

I don't like mixing both to tell you the truth.

Exactly! I have 3 pages, and the third is hidden well. No offense taken by anyone, and the problem is solved :)
