Friday Funk: IKEA Engages Fans in the Facebook Showroom


March 5th, 2010 by Allison Kulage

If you’re lucky enough to live in a city that has an IKEA store, then you may have taken a trip inside their massive building and viewed the showrooms chock full of stylish furniture and accessories. I’ll be the first to admit that Cincinnati got a little better the day the IKEA opened. And yes, sometimes I go there just for the Swedish Meatballs. Don’t judge me.

But those of us that aren’t fortunate enough to live near this giant showroom and warehouse of Swedish furnishings and treats, still deserve to get as close to the IKEA experience as possible. And IKEA seemingly thought this exact thing when they made a brilliant move with their Facebook Showroom. Check out the video to see how they did it. And if you have a Facebook page for your business, perhaps IKEA’s story will get your creative juices flowing. Me? I’m gonna take a trip to get some meatballs this weekend. Mmmmmm meatballs.
