This is going to be a quick and easy post, but with such value that will make you instantly recognizable and remembered by all your Facebook friends.

The problem with Facebook is almost everyone adds new friends based on Facebook’s suggested friends. There is hardly ever any communication between each other and you have just added another person who is trying to pitch you their products. This is how you can have 1000 friends and find people with 700 friends in common.

Facebook is very impersonal now and was never designed to be that way. It is much the same as Twitter in that it gets very little conversion to leads and sales because there is so much spam.

That is, of course, if you are doing what 97% of the people on Facebook are doing.

But, here is your chance to do something to stand out from the crowd and generate hundreds of leads from your Facebook followers.

Step 1.

Work on your profile. Put as much detail as possible about you and your family and likes and dislikes. This gives people a chance to relate to you in some way.

This is not a place to pitch your business, but should have a call to action to learn more about you from your blog.

You website urls. should be displayed on the side. You are working at making personal connections and establishing relationships. If people like you, they will be more interested in finding out what you do.

Step 2.

Join groups that relate to what you are marketing. If you are trying to find people interested in Attraction Marketing, then look for groups filled with these people. If you are interested in selling to soccer fans, join groups about soccer.

Step 3.

Send a personal welcome VIDEO when people join you on Facebook. This way, you become a “real” person, rather than a picture and a message. If you do this, you become instantly different than 99% of people on Facebook and stand out as personable.

Step 4.

Send a birthday video to the people on the list on their birthday. Sing them happy birthday, or leave a funny message that captures their attention. There is no selling here, but you can almost guarantee that they will go to your profile and see what you are all about and will recognize you from that point on as the person who sent them a funny birthday video.

Step 5.

Create your own groups. By having a group following you can send your message out to hundreds or possibly thousands of people at one time, rather than message them individually. It is like having an email list, but it can be a lot more responsive if you are providing value. A great theme is how to make more money and create leads using Facebook.  You know all your followers are going to need that knowledge.

The whole point of these steps are to be recognized as someone different in the mess that is Facebook. It is a extremely valuable tool if you are using the right tactics and you will get far better results when you become a real person instead of a spammer. It’s all about the relationship. I could make more money from a list of 200 people that I have a relationship with and see me as a likable person who provides value than you could with a list of 2000 people who don’t recognize you, or worse yet, recognize you as a spammer.

One final bonus step.

Take five minutes a few times throughout the day and hit “like”  or leave comments on the posts you like and agree with. The more response a post gets, the higher it is ranked and it shows up on the Newsfeed as something worth looking at. This is great for plugging your industry, so don’t be afraid to leave positive feedback on other people’s posts that are selling the same thing as you. Don’t look at them as competition. Look at them as partners.

For instance, if I am marketing TVI as my main business, I would look for other people marketing TVI as well and leave them good feedback. As so many of us have the same friends in common it promotes my business on the newsfeed that goes out to everyone. When people see me leaving positive comments and the business always getting recognition and always on their newsfeed they will look more into it. Now, who do you thing they are going to sign up with if they like the opportunity? The guy who is spamming the business, or the one who sent them a funny birthday video?

Facebook newsfeed ranks peoples comments based on how many people like them and leave return comments. They show up more prevalently on other peoples pages. So the people you like, or the business you want to promote should be getting lots of response from others to rank higher.

This is a good chance to push your business or industry. The more people see about your business, the more weight it carries. So liking someone else’s comment, even if they are in the same business and industry as you will help them, but will also help you as people will have seen your business advertised by others and give your comments more authority.

This is also another great opportunity for communities within a community to help each other.

For instance, www.EasyInstantFeeback.com is a community of people who review and comment on other people’s blog posts and videos. They are encouraged to add Facebook and Youtube friends too. It is a tight community and another thing they can do is like the other members Facebook posts.

Just another way to get everything you want by helping others.

It doesn’t take much time to click on like when you see a friendly members post or to help your industry out by promoting it for everyone.

Every little action helps. So start doing it today.

How do you get more out of your customers?

How do you get them to stick around and buy from you over and over again?

How do you get them to spread the word about your business without even asking them too?

You need to speak out publicly and often and ask for feedback.

When you speak publicly to present customers or potential customers you are forming a relationship with them. It may be quite a few times before they even recognize who you are and what you are selling, but if you speak often enough your customers will start to recognize you as an authority in your industry.

Sooner or later they are going to search more about you and discover that they may need what you are offering. That is where social media is great to get recognized and get your message to many people, but blogging is better to have people learn more about you and get to know you more personally.

Every business should have a blog and post everyday. It develops a relationship and gives you the opportunity to tell the world about your products and services as well as ask for feedback and establish exactly what it is your customers want.

The more you post and correspond publicly with your target audience the more trust and credibility you will build so when it comes time to use your products or services, your customers are dealing with a trusted friend or company that they feel they have an attachment to and a relationship with.

This breaks a lot of the barriers and fears that customers have when making a buying decision and goes straight for the sale.

Not only that, when they are in conversation with theirs friends and family and the topic of your products and services arise, they become the best sales people you could ever hire. There is no better sale than a word of mouth recommendation. It bypasses all the questions as they are making the buying decision based on the trust and recommendation of a friend rather than a company.

So, get into the hang of speaking out publically about your products and services. Try and engage your customers somehow and get their feedback about you and your company and products, then take the information and give your customers exactly what they want. This will set you apart from your competition and set you up as a leader in your industry with a trusted following.

When you are developing a relationship, you should also be asking them for a way to reach them again. This can be through email, newsletter or direct mail. That way you can reward them for giving you feedback.

One if the biggest mistakes people make in business is not testing to see what works. They are essentially working by trial and error. Most times businesses are leaving a ton of money on the table when they could be grabbing it all by finding out what works and what doesn’t by surveying their customers and getting an accurate response.

Find a way to communicate regularly with your customers and get their feedback as often as possible too.

I have a 90 day challenge for you!

If you are in sales and are trying to market your product I challenge you to follow these directions for 90 days and see where your business goes.

Try and do one press release, one article and one video a day for 90 days. For my company, people starting from scratch and follow these directions are making $15,000+ a month. Would you like to have that kind of income and more?

The main thing you can do for you and your business is establish yourself as an authority in your market so people will learn from you and follow you.

Watch your team explode when you have people finding your articles press releases and videos all over the internet. With so many informational pieces out there, you will automatically become an authority in your market and rise above everyone else in your industry.

This will put you in the top 1% of marketers and take your business to another level. The question is, are you willing to make the decision and the sacrifice to get these press releases, articles and videos out there?

It really doesn’t take a great deal of effort, and after the initial few days of getting writers block and camera shy, you will have overcome the learning curve that most people quit at and have taught yourself some new skills that you will be able to pass along to the rest of your team.

If you are in a company like mine, you will have a back office that is full of training for your business. You need to listen to these trainings and take notes of the important points. The ones that will not only help you, but that will be useful to anyone else seeking information about how to succeed in your industry. Take great notes and then convert those notes to articles, blog posts, press releases and videos. You can use the same content for all of them and distribute them to social networking sites that will blast your information out to the education hungry world.

There are 79 million people in North America alone that will be actively seeking a work at home business in the next couple of years. Wouldn’t it be great if your name and opportunity kept coming up for them to see? People are looking for someone to follow. Someone who is honest trustworthy and willing to help them get where they want to be. By being that example and giving free valuable content through your videos, articles and press releases, you will attract more business than you can handle.

I dare you. Do what it takes for 90 days and see where it gets you.
