I used this tip to generate 7 leads in just 5 minutes of work.
Here is another great tip on using facebook to market your opportunity. This applies especially when you are targeting home business owners and in particular network marketers. You obviously are not going to hard sell them into your current company. Other networkers are won over to another company not because of a product or comp plan, but because of leaders that they build a relationship and feel that they offer enough value to warrant the change. Don’t get me wrong, the product and the comp plan play a role in the decision, but primarily we’ll be won over by the prospects of working with a leader.
Therefore, the best thing you can do is create a system that provides value to other networkers by teaching them how to prospect, recruit and generate leads. Then without being pushy offering them the opportunity to click on a link at the bottom of your email with a description, etc. If you provide enough value to them they will be attracted to you and the company that you are in.
Here are the steps you need to take to have value to offer.
1. Read books and go through training courses. Read them again and again and apply them again and again. Become an expert on something. It isn’t hard to do.
2. Offer the knowledge and value that you have acquired without any cost. Help as many people as you can without expecting anything in return.
3. Via auto-responder, a website, newsletter, etc. very carefully give them the opportunity to click on a link for your primary business. Add the link to your signature line with a promotional statement or put a link on your website.
One great way to do this is through Facebook groups. Here are the steps to take to build a substantial group.
1. Build a Friend list of likeminded home business owners of 500 to 2000.
2. Start a generic home business training group and invite each of them to join it.
3. 2 to 5 times a week post valuable information on it. Include a link somewhere to your website that gives them the opportunity to look deeper. Include a link to your generic industry training blog that then has a link to your primary business on it.
Enjoy,

Are you frustrated with the progress of your business? Are you sick of paying for leads and not seeing the results that you desire?
Would you like to learn how to market yourself on Facebook? Are you interested in finding out the secrets to this Web 2.0 community?
Facebook is all the rage; there are people that rarely venture out of Facebook onto the rest of the internet. It has become their community and in fact many people use it as the main way to communicate themselves. In high school, college and even people out of college instead of the phone number they’ll ask for their Facebook ID.
Facebook offers internet marketers another “MILLION” dollar opportunity.
Here are five rules to marketing on Facebook.
1. Act like a “normal” user and not a marketer-add friends and use an intro message, interact with people, etc.
2. Facebook is a sale free zone - don’t market directly on your personal page
3. Don’t send out spammy messages marketing to your friends in mass emails on facebook
4. Do start a marketing page for your business after you have built a base of minimally 400 friends.
5. Do start a group so that people can interact and post questions and comments about your business
The normal user on Facebook looks for new friends on other friends sites. Don’t just add them to friends though. You must type a message of introduction of yourself and how you know them. If you don’t do that some will consider it spam.
Find old friends, join groups you are interested in and post on them. Interact with your friends, update what you are doing now, write on people’s wall, post videos and have fun with it.
Interacting with people on Facebook is similar to interacting with people in the real world. You aren’t going to just go up to your friends and start harassing them about your new pyramid business. You are going to fit it into the conversation in a casual way that interests them and leave it at that without pushing them. You will quickly give them the info to create interest and let them decide if they want to pursue it. Oh, that is if you are going to do it the right way instead of the old school begging, pleading and scolding for not joining your business.
The same thing applies with just sending out a mass Facebook email about your business. It’s spammy and people react very negatively to it on Facebook. They’ll report it as spam and you can lose your page.
Once you have a good base of friends I recommend you start a page for your business. Always present your business on your page with HOW it benefits others, with a HOW TO statement or a DISCOVER or a LEARN opening piece so that people that are intrigued with that subject would click through and learn about how you can help them and build value in their lives. Invite them to interact and discuss and ask questions. Keep things positive even if you get negative comments. People will see the discussion and find out you are a great person if you handle it correctly. They will want to do business with someone who is professional and they can see they handle objections and issues with fairness and kindness.
Finally start a group about your business that offers the opportunity for people to join it and start interacting as a group about your business.
The best thing to market on Facebook is you and the knowledge and the value you have to offer. It honestly won’t work the best to market your MLM company directly. Market your own personal capture page that offers a email boot camp or Magnetic Sponsoring or Building on a Budget. Keep it informational.
Know also that beyond simply giving you results directly on Facebook google and other search engines love Facebook so as they see your URL’s on it and interlinked on various sites within Facebook they will give you a higher search engine ranking!
Enjoy!
