How to use a Facebook Group Successfully!

    Using a facebook group can be a difficult task if you are unsure of what they are, and how they work. Facebook groups can be used very much so like a fan page, or a business page. I often create 3 or 4 groups around a topic and use each for a topic. This allows me to reach the targeted market I am after properly, while producing the most efficient information to 1 specific topic. I use my groups as information hubs, and often get in-depth with the topic the group is covering.

Below are steps and tips to using your group well. 

1. Develop a base that is generally interested in your content. If your entire base is looking for condoms and your selling the best fertility drugs on the planet, your falling yourself.

2. Creating a posting schedule. Post 3 times a day, or 3 times a wee. I personally post at 9am,2pm,and 6pm every day! I have made it a necessity to do this each and every day.

3. Develop fun events, raffles, giveaways. Find a way to get something to your followers for FREE. If you do a monthly $50.00 visa gift card giveaway and collect an email as a submission, you are winning!

4. Create,Create,Create, videos that is. By next year it is expected that 80% of marketing will be through the use of videos. Yes you read that right, by next year 80% of the marketing we do will be through video!

5. Conversate with followers. If you do not respond to the followers you have, how can you expect to gain more? You want your users to have the optimal users experience with your group.
