Great advice – also remember that the danger with ONLY having your community on FB is that FB owns the data. If they ban yo for some reason you lose all that info.

Thanks for the great information. It helped us take our Docu Drama to new level of interest. Very relative for today’s social media and viral marketing that we’re doing!

Re “Walk of Death” – I can think of a million ideas, especially as you head out to festivals. You could easily have 3,000 fans in a month. Get in touch.

Thanks for all your comments. It’s cool to see people beginning to understand how important social media, especially facebook is to building an audience for your films. It’s free and easy and really quite fun once you get into it. We love to just sit over coffee and think about ways to engage our audience. We try to do something each day, whether it’s writing to new “Likers”, creating new content, or responding to people who post. It was so new when we started, there was no way to plan. Now I could write a book – maybe I will. The best way to find new fans is to search out niche market pages and establish a relationship. For example, we found “Stang Nation” because we have a Mustang in our film and it’s brought us a ton of new fans who are excited about our film. It’s really a never ending process that starts to take on a life of it’s own.

Thanks for a great interview. I am wondering how strategic your facebook posts are…Do you come up with a plan first? Or do you just post stuff as you go along and have new content?

We have found ourselves stalled out in terms of continuing to build a fan base, in fact we have been losing some. How can we continue to “invite” more fans other then relying on those that are currently fans? Any ideas appreciated.

@tengiz; put it up on a film page and then link it! This is a great interview; I typed out the five tips and links and I’m sending it all to my agent. We’re looking to make the Desert Peach into a film or animation, after all these years of fans wanting it.
