Facebook'$ 5 BILLION I.P.O.

Posted on February 06, 2012 by Spanky Hizon Enriquez

$5,000,000,000.00 : The FACEBOOK I.P.O.

- $1 billion in profits in 2011
- Profits grew 65% from $606 million in 2010
- $3.7 billion in revenues in 2011, soaring 88% from 2010

That $5B valuation may actually be an understatement, as Facebook is expected to have its One Billionth user by mid-2012!

Happy $5B IPO and Happy 8th Birthday, FACEBOOK!!!

I gave a talk on Facebook Marketing at the AIM a week ago, and these recent developments have served as the perfect validation of the case study I presented to my students.

To celebrate, I made over 800 new friends this weekend, and received around 30,000 likes, shares, and tags (!!!) thanks to an album of KC pics from Rogue.

That may be the Tipping Point for Facebook Marketing: just attach these KC pics to anything~ but be careful not to violate Facebook's terms of use; apparently, that photo of KC with her ummm... headlights shining through her pure white swimsuit? Borderline Pornographic!!!
