Facebook Group Marketing is Like a Fighter Swinging Blind!

Let us just preface this by saying that if you’re new to marketing or the industry, you may not know this stuff (specifically how to market in a facebook group) and that’s ok. We all started somewhere and we commend you for just simply getting started in the first place. You obviously know you want and deserve something better and it’s true! The thing is…we feel compelled to help you do it the right way so you can get better results in your home based business.

*Disclaimer-These tips don’t just apply to a Facebook group, but to all social media outlets in general.

Who’s your target? What is your intention? Do you really think people are going to see the 50 million business opportunities in the Facebook groups and say, “That’s the magical one I want to join! I’ll just sign up automatically without knowing anything about the person, what they know, any skills and just disregard the trust factor all together.”

It’s the same as a boxer or fighter swinging at his opponent in the dark and blindfolded. You’re just putting your opportunity or product links out there in the Facebook groups like a spam bot…hoping and wishing someone will take the bait.

We’re here to tell you, marketing just doesn’t work like that. Maybe once in awhile, someone may bite, but are they really quality people that will stay in for the long haul? We think not. Sorry, but sometimes we just need a little tough love.

Network marketing, Direct Sales, Affiliate Marketing, Online Marketing..whatever the case may be is still a profession and with any successful business, you want to build trust whether in a Facebook group or otherwise. You want to share knowledge and value with others in order to attract them to what you’re doing or offering.

If you don’t know where to begin when Marketing in a Facebook Group, you can do the following:

1. Seek out people you respect as leaders in the industry and share what you learn with others via blogging, videos, facebook notes, press releases, articles,  etc.
2. If you want to start blogging where all you do is plug in and play, while making 100% commission, click .
3. If you don’t know anyone, just type in Google or YouTube,”Online Marketing Tips” or “Personal Development”-seek out the knowledge you need to learn to marketing successfully.
4. Read books written by successful marketers and then share that value in the facebook groups.
5. Go into a facebook group, put yourself in someone else’s shoes and ask yourself this question…., “Does this post about how great this company is make me want to join?”
   
6. Offer solutions and share your opportunities in the Facebook group, but do it by building trust and rapport FIRST or in addition to posting your link/links.
   
7. It’s up to YOU to take the initiative to grow your business, no one else.

There’s so much information on the internet to help others when it comes to blogging, video marketing or any kind of marketing for that matter so there really is no excuse for you not to taking the necessary steps to help yourself and others. It’s a choice. Are you going to be lazy and keep swinging in the dark, taking from people instead of giving, or are you going to do the work to grow yourself and your business the right way?

 Make a decision today to stop the spam in the Facebook groups and anywhere you’re doing it and become a business owner, associate, or affiliate with integrity, honesty and a person of real value then you’ll see better results.

 A Facebook group is definitely a place to get exposure-

but what kind of exposure are you wanting? One where everyone is annoyed with you, ignores you or runs from you and what you’re offering or exposure that sets you apart as a leader?
