Facebook now allows approx 5,000 friends on a Personal Profile. If you create a Fan Page, the number of fans is unlimited. I suggest building both with a priority given to your Fan Page. This will increase brand awareness and help with SEO if you have a website.
Facebook only allows (I believe) 1000 friends, and then everyone after will only be allowed to be fans. So, I guess the answer to your question is friends, and then fans would be the best for your brand.
Fans are most important in building the brand, fans are the people who will come to your site, based on brand satisfaction. some extent friends will promote the site, but ultimately the users of the brand.. if you are created a fan page in FB, the most of the people who like the brands are fans. in some cases Friends are late adopters of the brand.
