How to Use Facebook For Your Network Marketing Business

You are told by your mentor to start your network marketing business by opening a Twitter account, a Facebook account. They tell you get on there and you will generate leads and sales just by being there and putting out content. No training is provided for you to learn how to set up your account. Well you are at the right place today because I will tell you exactly how to use Facebook account for your Network Marketing business. Let's do it!

Let's talk about a few of the don'ts. First do not put a picture of your product or your business. It is Facebook, not picture book. When you describe yourself in the info area, don't just say "I am here to help you towards financial freedom or I will teach you how to make $10K a month" Don't put videos or pictures that would not look professional. Example, pictures from your New Years Day party or from the football game where you might have had a little much to drink.

What are the dos? First it starts with your picture. A nice smiling sort of business casual would be great. Your bio should describe you and your business, not just you. When choosing your favorites make sure they are related to each other. If you are a fan of Golf but you choose a book about hockey as your favorite book, it does not really match even it is true. Your information box should be basic information about you like if you are married, who are you married to and your links to your webpage.

Become a fan of pages related to your business. Notice I said related. Start making friend requests in those pages and add a note like "HI Jane, I see you are a fan of...., so am I, let's connect! John". Most people will accept your request. Once they accept your request, send them a welcome message and start a conversation. Notice I said a conversation, not a sales pitch.

When placing content on your Facebook account, use common sense. You want to add value for all your friends. This is done by placing motivational quotes, forwarding good articles, videos and so forth. You want to provide interesting content so your friends want to know what you are up to. On Facebook you should sell yourself as a leader, not sell a product or service.

Once you have been established on Facebook for a while, you can start a business page where you would provide information to others for free to help them in their business or their lives. This would help building your brand and create a perception that you are an expert in your field. You can also use Facebook Pay Per Click but they are very strict and there is a cost associated. Make sure you make yourself familiar with their guidelines.

Knowing these simple guidelines on how to use Facebook for your network marketing business will make a ton of difference in your success. To be successful with Facebook, you must become a person of value, a person your friends would want to know about. If you follow these steps, you will experience success faster than you could imagine.
