Facebooking Your Way To Online Riches

The Internet is something that people take for granted
sometimes. Little do we know that the very tools that
we use (often on a daily basis), are the very ones that
many marketing experts are using to generate a huge
4 to 5 figure income every single month.

Tools like Google, Twitter and especially Facebook.

But what makes Facebook so compelling is the fact that you
can discover connections that you have never thought possible.
By clicking on your friends' profile, you will discover who
knows who or who is connected to whom, or even who has
worked together with whom.

I guess, one the single most powerful form of succeeding in
online marketing is to discover who your key people are
connected to.

Take a marketing guru for example. He might not know
who you are and most people do not care about strangers…
but if you are able to build relationships via the very people
he knows, such as making friends with his 'inner circle'
members or clients / customers, you will be able to 'gain access'
to that inner circle and build a relationship with the guru as well.

The news feed and status updates are also powerful tools that
are indispensable for every online marketer.

Like email marketing, direct response is solicited through
your updates to all your friends and contacts on Facebook
(this function works similar to twitter's updates) and although
the click through rate might not match up to a person's
personal mailing list, nevertheless, it is powerful enough to
generate buzz and a certain degree of traffic for your affiliate
products or launches.

One more really important function about Facebook is the
ability for a marketer to create communities about certain
topic. Facebook groups are powerful enough, that even
religious groups are using the Internet to spread their gospel.

By producing content and sharing it in a tight community,
you will be able to create a strong and loyal fan base.

Here's what a sharp marketer would do in order to make
money through facebook:

- They must brand themselves as an Internet marketing
expert. You can't be shy about your accomplishments
because readers are bombarded with information all
the time so your name MUST stand out.

- Regularly post valuable information on your Facebook
groups. Just like blogging, it must be consistent and build
your readers up.

- Try and make new friends and add as many as possible
in your line of work. A good way of getting others to add
you is to start with their contacts. They will most likely
add you if you are connected with all their friends.
