Facebook keeps changing how they do things so no doubt this won’t work in a couple of months.
For now though, here is a hack you can use to see who likes your Facebook page.
The first thing you need to know is your Page ID#
If your Page address is:
https://www.facebook.com/MyPageName
Use the last part and plug it into this url:
MyPageName
The page ID will look like this:
Take that number and put it into this url:
https://www.facebook.com/browse/page_fans/?page_id=539920966835354
Voila!
You should now see a long list of people who liked your page.
See Who Likes Your Facebook Page
This is the advanced version of what you can do with knowing individually who likes your Facebook page. That little hack I showed you to find the id of your page – you can also use to find the id of your fan.
Once you find this you can advertise to them directly using the Custom Audience feature in Facebook.

If you do any marketing on Facebook you really should have a close look at the Custom Audience feature. This is the way that you can use Facebook advertising to secretly target your competitors closest followers. I’ll get to that in a minute.
In its general use you can upload phone numbers, emails, or user id’s so you can super-target specific users. This is useful for cross promoting to people you know are interested in your products and services but aren’t connected in Facebook.
They might be on your email list so you can upload your list and market them now in both email and Facebook.
Maybe they called your office and you have their phone number. Why not make one ad specific for them with something like:
Hey John Brown
Special Price on The Lexus
Just for YOU. Call me.
It might freak him out a little bit to see his picture there but you can be sure it will get his attention!
What if I told you that you can also steal other peoples lists? Right out of their private groups!
I guess you are really just “borrowing” their list. Because stealing is wrong…
All you need to do is to find the Facebook User ID’s of their members. This is simple to do. In your group on the top right there is the group information with the number of members.
Click on the blue “members” and that will take you to the page with ALL THE MEMBERS NAMES!
These are all people who have gone to the trouble to join this group because they have this particular interest. Talk about a targeted audience!
To find their personal Facebook User id just do the same thing you did above. Click on their name to get their Facebook name and get their id number.
Put the id number into your custom audience and off you go with your super targeted list.
For example;
If the group you belong to is for people interested in Chihuahua’s, you can gather the id’s of people and directly target an ad to them by headlines that call them out.
“Hey Chihuahua Lover!”
Doing this one at a time is rather time consuming for sure BUT…
