When you search MLM or Network Marketing you will find lots of facebook groups and facebook community on it. At the same time many networkers who are practicing attraction marketing are posting everywhere. Even if the blog post have value on it, it is still considered spamming if they don't interact with people on the community.

But here's my point, there are lot's of facebook group page about mlm and if you notice they are not communicating or interacting with one other. The group page end up a page where you can see a lot of blog post. Is it worth posting your blog post there, and do you think that people are reading the blog post?

For me, social media is about interaction so in my opinion it is a waste of effort, you'll end up practicing web 1.0 style of advertising which is so one way. Why don't focus on effort that will give so much return.

I want to know your opinion on this.

The key thing is "Target Market" so I say yes and no. If you want to target a market you don't want people that have no interest in the service or product that you represent. If you are in real estate, then you want to target people that may be interested in buying a house. If you are in insurance then you want people that own something like a house or car that they need to insure.

Same goes for network marketing or internet marketing. You want likes from people that are in your niche or target market if they don't a lot of likes doesn't matter. Reason why I said all of this, is I got into one of those in linkedin. It was a total waste because I got a lot of people that were not my niche.

So find focused facebook groups that they are in your niche and get to talking to them, and then share your facebook like page with them, you will definitely get much better results.

Hi...you all!

Jonathan Budd explained very well...

You go where the people you need are gathering...right? And :
1** You invite them to be a friend of yours.
2** Develop a good relationship...and gain their trust and become an authority to them.
3** Give them what they lack in their own opportunities...they do not lack miracle pills and juices!

You know what 95% desperately need...a great mentor...you want to know why?
Because everybody wants to build a huge downline and as fas as they could...but only 5%
are willing to pay the price...lead and be a good mentor...almost anybody has a battle plan in place to support their people...I know MLMarketers that are doing really really well...but once they hit the gold pot...they do not pay 4 dollars per hour to a philipinne virtual assistant!You can hire one of them for just 20 hours a MONTH....here my friend is you possibility to convert some MLMarketers to your own Genesis Pure business...give them what they desperately need...

Be well,

Roger Aburto

It all depends, I see so many network marketing groups with people just posting their links and there are no discussions what so ever. So you would have to have your title really attractive for people to click on it and offer some great value.

Hi edison,

lynda cromar is tottaly right , and if your not linked in with and communicating with them it would be a form of spam! The main thing is to target your market! I do market of facebook but only to my friends and I never try to force them or bombard them, I just share what I have to my friends!

Facebook has always been a great place to share information with your friends and keep up with what they're doing. What has not been as easy is sharing information with small groups of people. I always share my blog with my friends via facebook.

The idea behind facebook marketing is to connect with people not just flog your link to as many groups as you can. If you can communicate with people on facebook on a one to one, you are likely to get better results as they will know that there is a real and genuine person..not just a bunch of links.

Interact with the groups and offer value adding information as you would do on a forum, and your friends list should grow naturally with like-minded people (of course you can pay to get hundreds of facebook friends but what are these friendships worth to your business?)

Hi Edison, I agree with you.

Actually, to drive traffic to our sites, we ever kept doing this for about two weeks by posting blog content in many related facebook groups and community pages. However, there was no good result. Most facebook gourps have been places flooded with blog posts and direct promotions. Few of our posts will be read or click. So after this period of try, we have given up putting marketing resources in groups.
