5 Simple and Easy Ways to Use Facebook to Market Your Business

Click here to listen. . . Facebook is another in a long list of social networking sites. There’s MySpace, LinkedIn, Ryze, etc.

Certainly too many to join and keep up with AND run your business at the same time.

I spent some time playing around on Facebook this weekend and wanted to share some of the ways you can easily market your business using it -- without a lot of time or effort: 1. Include your website/blog link on your profile page.

By including links to your website and blog, you invite anyone who visits your page to quickly and easily visit your website, opt-in page, blog, etc.

I even link to my MySpace page.

2. Post notes just like you would in an online forum.

Have something to share? Post a note on your or someone else’s “wall” and watch the responses come flooding in!

3. Invite people to your events.

Have an upcoming teleclass? Invite your friends, and their friends.

A friend of mine is holding a teleclass later today and she got about 45 registrants from Facebook alone (makes it worth the 5 minutes to post a notice!).

4. Use an RSS feed to show your blog entries.

Not only is this another effective way to repurpose your blog entries and reach people who may not have known about you otherwise, it’s done automatically for you!

5. Set up groups which relate to your business, hobbies, etc.

You can join others’ groups or set up your own and invite your friends to participate.

As much as I enjoy MySpace, LinkedIn and some of the other sites, Facebook has won me over as being the simplest to set up and most fun network out there.
