Social networking has become a big buzz in the business world today and no other website has what Facebook has to offer. You can easily promote your business by meeting people you relate to on a personal level. People buy from people they like, so after you get to know folks on Facebook it gets easier to make sales. Ok, you're convinced - let me tell you more.
The first step is to start out by going out and connecting with your friends. Go through your address book and do a search for them on Facebook. When you've run out of people in your address book, it's now a great opportunity to browse through other people who have a similar interest on Facebook. One of the first things you want to do in order to make the connection is has something in common, which makes it easier for them to get to know you better.
Once you have a healthy list of friends on your Facebook account you can slowly start to promote your business. You want to remember to do this subtly. If you don't, people will start to get annoyed quickly. They might report you as a spammer or get rid of you as their friend. You never want to seem like you're too over-the-top. You also want to actually become their friends if possible. Take an interest in what they like. Send them messages from time to time and get to know them on a personal level. When someone trusts you, they will be much more likely to purchase from you.
One thing that works great to promote a vacation business on Facebook is to put your vacation pictures up on the FunWall. For example, if you just took a great trip to Disney World, you can post your pictures on your profile. Then when your friends come to see your new pictures, they will probably comment about how fun that looks. Then, eventually the conversation will shift to how great of a deal you got on your trip. This is the perfect time to let them know about your business and how you can help them create such wonderful memories for their family.
Groups, are another great way to make friends. Groups on Facebook are people that have similar hobbies, interests, and are like-minded. There are many different topics you can choose from: geography, religion, politics, sports, movies, music, and even your high school class.
Another great way to connect with people is through your status. Your status is a mini blog that ask you "what are you doing?". you can get as personal or as vague as you want with this. You may be watching your favorite TV show, reading a great book that you want to share or perhaps you're enjoying a day on the beach. Either way, it allows your friends to keep in touch with you and stay connected with what you are doing.
Posting links to your Facebook account is yet another way to connect with others. I like to post video links from YouTube. When you post those links, the video will automatically appear on your friends update page, so they can immediately watch the video you posted. maybe you're learning how to bowl and you've got a great blooper video from Friday nights bowling practice. You might also want to share news articles, your blog posts, and your favorite pictures.
No matter what your experience is online, Facebook is a great way to connect and promote your business. It will allow you to increase your income.
