Facebook’s Recommendation Feature Leads Customers Directly to Your Business

5 / 5 ( 24 votes )

Facebook recently announced the release of a new feature that allows friends’ recommendations to directly lead customers to businesses.

When you post a status requesting recommendation for new restaurants, for example, that person can choose to turn on Recommendations, which tracks your location and includes a map of your location on the post. When friends respond with recommendations, the recommended business will appear on the post’s map.
