Facebook Marketing Magic

Today it’s known amongst all serious business owners that all businesses need Facebook. This internet sensation is very low cost but grants the ability to build a financial empire.

Businesses of all types utilize it, from network marketing to bricks and mortar. Facebook’s viral nature means that your business can be thriving in just a few days. It is the largest, fastest growing website in history and your business should not be without it.

Facebook is not just geared towards youth, either. It would have been hard to predict twenty years ago but baby boomers have hit social media by storm. Virtually all of my friends are on Facebook.

At over one billion users, Facebook is where every marketer wants to be. It plugs you into a wealth of potential customers, clients, distributors and business partners.

A few key points on getting started with Facebook marketing:

1. Set up a facebook account.

2. Create a fun and compelling profile. Write down the things that you want to share with others. This will help foster engagement, and keep communication flowing between you and your friends.

3. Upload a photograph that you want to represent you online. This is part of branding, and you’ll want to use the same photo for all of your marketing products.

Use a flattering photo. Stay away from long shots – people want to see what you look like.

Be aware, it’s not that people are judging your appearance, they want to know that you are a real live, flesh and blood person that they can relate to. You can be so ugly that your mother won’t kiss you and people won’t care so long as you offer them value and solutions. If you do that they will follow you to the ends of the earth.

I spoke with my son about marketing my business on Facebook and the first thing he asked was, “What photo are you going to use?“ He informed me that a photo I’d chosen that plainly showed my natural grey hair made me look, “too old.” I have a young soul and vibrant energy but he argued my picture, “showed none of that.”

After some contemplation I decided to stick with the photo I had chosen. My profile picture is the real me and I’ve never been one to pretend to be something or someone I’m not. My life is my own and I live it proudly. Perhaps there is someone out there who would choose to judge me by my photo but that it not someone I care to conduct business with in the first place. I truly believe that my profile photo never hindered me in terms of business development.

4. Create a group. Groups are a quick and relatively effortless why to help your fans and followers organize around common interests, problems and solutions.

5. Create a Fan Page. Fan pages are designed for businesses, organizations, celebrities, etc. Every business that is serious about creating a following online must create a Fan Page.

6. Start following the leaders in your industry and comment when you see something interesting. Send out friend requests to people you want to associate with. Add a thoughtful and intriguing to each friend request.

7. Post status updates that are helpful. Don’t overly promote your deal. Make your posts about 80% content and 20% or less promotion. Remember, everyone likes to buy, but no one wants to be sold.

8. Don’t spam. You will be removed from Facebook in no time flat if you are a spammer.

9. Start adding friends and liking fan pages.

10. Create an event and start getting some buzz. It’s time to add the sizzle to the steak.
