Set Up Your Business, Shared On Facebook With Family and Crickets...
Crickets or tumbleweed.
We have all done it and some of us a few times and still haven't learnt - well, the thing is no one has told you not to.
So here goes!
Don't spam your Friends and Family with your new business idea.
Well, that was easy.
Bye!
Okay seriously, there is a very good reason. You are making them uncomfortable and Pi$$ing them off.
Sorry, but it's true and you know it, I am sure someone has done it to you.
Looking at this logically you have what 500 friends and family on Facebook surely one wants it? - yes of course they do!
How can you make sure you are getting just those who are interested?
Here are my 3 easy steps for sorting your Facebook Friends' spamming dilemma.
1. Go into Facebook and on the sidebar click Friends
2. Create Custom Lists.
3. Move those 500 people into those lists -
i.e -
Family (definitely not interested)
Family (Maybe)
Friends (definitely not interested)
Friends (Maybe)
Workplace Colleagues (definitely not interested)
Workplace Colleagues (interested)
Workplace 2 Colleagues (definitely not interested)
Workplace 2 Colleagues (interested)
and finally
My Interested Business Group
This is not a quick thing to do, BUT once done you can move people around these groups as you see fit.
Once complete start dropping your lead magnets & open questions to certain groups and see who comments.
Some will start to take the bait, you can move those to your Interested Group.
Now, this is a slow burner and quite honestly for your list can be painful especially if you already know your ideal avatar isn't anyone on your 500 list at all...
But, bear with me...
You can then use this set-up to gain more friends.
Joining and commenting in groups as yourself.
As above move them to your interested group and then eventually over to your business page (by giving them lead magnets and getting their email addresses!)
