Millions of people curate stories of their lives on Facebook every day and have no way to share them once they fall off your profile page…
we have been working on ‘timeline’ all year…
it’s the story of your life and a completely new way to express yourself. It has three pieces: all your stories, your apps and a new way
to express who you are.
-MARK ZUCKERBERG, FACEBOOK’S FOUNDER & CHIEF EXECUTIVE
FACEBOOK IS EVOLVING INTO A NEW TYPE OF STORYTELLING PLATFORM
![Page 4: FMC Feb 2012 - Our Point of View](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081513/568c4b371a28ab49169b58d0/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The goal has always been to have your personal experience on Facebook not be so different than the brand experience. And right now, it is different.
You have Timeline and you have a page-brand profile. So we are absolutely moving in the direction to sync those up. We believe that brands want to be
able to curate how they’re represented in a more visually pleasing way, and we’re in the midst of trying to figure out how best to do that.
-CAROLYN EVERSON, FACEBOOK VP OF GLOBAL MARKETING SOLUTIONS
FACEBOOK IS NOW OPEN FOR BRANDS

Reach amplifies…shifting media planning decisions to those who create content, truly understand, and manage your community.
THREE CRITICALLY IMPORTANT CHANGES:
Brands and people experience Facebook in the same manner...timelines tell their story.
Social evolves paid & Owned Media...content marketing and frictionless sharing reemphasize the importance of brand narrative and creative.

![Page 7: FMC Feb 2012 - Our Point of View](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081513/568c4b371a28ab49169b58d0/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Social is a simple, human, individual, value exchange.
Brands and people are equal players.
Their shared currency is storytelling.
Great storytelling = narrative + value exchange + iteration.
We can no longer divide narrative and response.
Brands still tell stories, but now must also listen and react to others’.
We must be presenters, guests and hosts.
Social relationships are real-time.
Social Value is measured by engagement.
