Social media marketing is very popular nowadays and it is an excellent way for marketers to build brand and increase overall traffic to their sites.

3. Social groups. You can create a social group on Facebook for your business and invite people to join the group. This is a very good viral marketing tactic and you absolutely need to capitalise on it. With your social groups, you can post links, business updates and events so that your group members are always updated on what you are doing.

Josh,

Well said! You hit this one right out of the park.

I just started with the social ads and having great success with it. For it to be effective, I had to start thinking like my target audience, this way my ad will appear. It’s a learning process, a fun one too.

Have an awesome day Josh,

Jerome Ratliff

Hey Josh,

Great Post, I started with Facebook marketing about a year ago. I like to get to know people in the chat box, and over time introduce my business. I built up to over 4,500 friends by never being pushy. And never spamming.

It is definitely a great marketing tool, and a good way to waste time when you’re bored.

Hi Chris,

That is awesome! You started the marketing process 1 year ago. Perhaps we can learn a thing or two from you. Facebook marketing for sure is a process and very easy to fall into the spamming. If you are not paying attention.

Thanks for sharing it with us, buddy…I have some catching up to do….4500 friends? BTW- Are we friends on facebook and Twitter?

Chat with you soon.
Josh

Josh,
Great article on Facebook. I have been dying to get started building friends and relationships on there. One of the best ideas in your article is to create a group. As a matter of fact, maybe some of us like-minded people should create our own group.

Great article, as always, Josh. Learned something new today. Thanks for sharing!

Oh, you can also create lists on Facebook and group your friends in to specific lists. For example, networkers, real estate, health care, and so on :)
