Facebook Marketing Phase 5: Inviting Friends To Be a Part of Your Group

Today, I want to wrap things up with the Facebook Marketing strategy that I have presented to you over the last few weeks. This is such a powerful method of internet marketing and I will be continuing to add things as I learn them. I will also post a case study on one of our clients who has seen amazing success over the last month with Facebook Marketing.
At this point in your Facebook Marketing stage you should just be adding friends and conversing with them via The Wall or through messages. Try to honestly be their friends and get to know them. If they have questions for you about your company or niche, answer them. Be weary about pushing your group or page right now. If your friends find either of them and join, then GREAT! The Less work that you have to do the better!
- Set a friend goal, I usually set it at 250. As soon as you hit that goal, you can invite all of them to join your group that you originally created.
- To invite your friends to join your group, go to your group’s home page. On the right hand side of the page, under the picture, it says “Invite People To Join”, click on that link.
- On the right hand side of the page, it says “Invite Friends On Facebook”. There are little boxes next to their names. Select each box, it only allows you to invite 100 people at a time so you will have to do it two to three times to invite everyone.
- After selecting your friends to invite, click the blue button that says “Send Invitations”.
The main goal with building this group is to create interaction among members and hope they will click the link that takes them to the page you previously created. If you set up the page right, it will hook its visitors and direct them away from Facebook and onto your website. Well, from here on out, it is all about maintaining. Keep inviting friends every day, or every few days. Keep talking to them and building relationships with them. Create interaction in your group and on your page. Upload some cool pictures or video that will create interest in your group and on your page. There are a lot of really fun things that you can do with Facebook, just remember to put the salesman away and just be yourself until the opportune moment.
