One of the top reasons people fan a businesses Facebook Page is to get something free. Some restaurants in OC are starting to get the hint. Greek Town Grill in Costa Mesa is offering a free appetizer (with any purchase) to any fans on their Facebook Page.

I am a prime example of why this promotion is working. Having lived in close proximity to this establishment for the last 3 years and while curious about the food it was never at the top of my mind when I felt like being adventurous with my food. One evening a friend of mine had brought me here and I noticed their Facebook promotion. I became a fan of their page and received my free appetizer of hummus and pita (because my friend had purchased an entree). I had already eaten dinner so I was just along for the ride and the hummus, according to my friend the food was great, staff was friendly and the decor was very inviting. I will most definitely be back. Had it not been for the Facebook promotion I would not have gotten to try the food at this local establishment that I had been so curious to try. To date they only have 150 fans but surely this will increase. Some other interesting offerings from their Facebook page include:
