The longer I have been on Facebook the more benefits I receive from it for my business. I started out on Facebook just to see if I could find more of my old high school friends than I did on Classmates. I have definitely found more and there has been a lot more interaction than there ever was on Classmates.
Here are five of the benefits you will receive…
#1 If you are participating in an event you want others to attend, e.g., teleclass, fundraiser, webinar, live event, etc., you can get the word out quickly and have a good showing. You are able to put yourself in front of your potential customers and discover what they are talking about and searching for on the web.
#2 You can learn about your distant customers by their posts. You will feel much more connected to them when you meet them than you thought possible. You can stay connected with the customers you already have and learn to provide the products they are looking for.
#3 My customers sometimes say profound things. These profound things can have a positive impact on how you do your business, it has happened to me and I am very grateful.
#4 You are reminded of your customer’s birthdays so you do not need to keep track or spend money on a card, and it’s a great time to send them encouraging words.
#5 You can find old and new friends through your current friends and have them become your customers or clients, or refer you to new customers or clients.
There are many, many more benefits for using Social Media Marketing for your business. The best thing to do is to just get started. Social Media Marketing is not something that happens over night, it does take time. You will need to build trust with your customers and potential customers and like Kees Kamies says… “Give trust, and you’ll get it double in return.”

As said, Facebook and other social media platforms can be great sources of traffic and customers when used effectively. Most people make the mistake of trying to market a product without building a relationship. Facebook will help you to build this relationship first.
