Can you get Klout accounts for Businesses? How do you do it?

I am new to Klout, just signed up today. I manage social media for 3 other businesses, how can I get Klout for them? Is it possible? How do I do it? The contact us page for Klout is down.

Yes, this can definitely be done. Here's an example of one of the business accounts I set up for a client: http://klout.com/#/Communion_Cups  . Just use the business Facebook or Twitter account on the sign up page and you'll be on your way. Hope that helps!

Not sure I understand....on the Klout home page sign up? When I go there I am automatically me. There is no option to sign up as someone (thing) else.....

Go to your Facebook and Twitter accounts and log out. Then, log in to either Twitter or Facebook under your business. Twitter works best for this because you might have your business Facebook page attached to your personal Facebook account.  Log in to Twitter with the business Twitter account. Then return to Klout. Make sure you are doing all of this in the same browser. This should work. Let me know. Cheers!

Yeah..darn. I am only doing Facebook, and they are all tied to my FB page, as I am the admin. Any advice for that specifically? Thank you so much. Your assistance is much apprecited

I'd suggest starting a business Twitter account. There's no time like the present right? You might find that interaction on Twitter is better or at least different. Being in both can be very good for your brand too. That's what I would suggest.
