Is Facebook ready to be number one? Facebook has reached 500 million members. Every eight seconds a new account is formed on Face Book.

Facebook has become a haven for network marketers. A sea of prospects. 500 million to be exact. Now how and what is the best way to market on Face Book?

The newest one is Facebook pay per click. This is rivaling  Google’s PPC marketing, and Google is getting a little worried.

There are a number of ways to market on Facebook and really you should be using a couple of different ones. I am going to show you just one. This is the one that I have been using and a lot of people have been using for awhile.

First you must have a Facebook account. That is very easy to do, but DO NOT mention anything about your business on your Facebook profile.  You want to connect with people. All people. If they see you and your business, they will assume you are just like thousands of other marketers on Face Book who just want to pitch their business at them.

Once you start making connections and friends, people will naturally want to know more about you. This is where your profile is important.  They are going to visit your profile and find out more about who you are. Just make conversation and only talk about your business to them when they ask, and they will eventually ask. Just be patient.

I usually have several generic scripts written  that I keep in my “office one note pad.” One for asking to be a friend and the other for thanking someone for their offer of friendship.

For example; “Hi Jim.  Really liked your page. Please add me to your friends list. I’m also online often so feel free to send me an IM.  Look forward to hearing from you. Have a great day. Brian” It’s friendly and to the point, and I usually always get a response. Always respond to every request you get. That personal note is very impressive. Don’t just click the confirm button.

Once that is done, start to connect with other people. If you are a network marketer, sign up with some of the groups that are associated with a company and or network marketing groups. Also think of the groups that have been hit hard right now with our struggling economy. Real Estate, mortgage, and financial investment companies. These people are hurting for some extra cash each and you have the tool that they could use. Get into their groups.

Once you are in, start posting some articles that are full of value pertinent to the needs of the group that you are in. Do videos and start connecting with people. It won’t take long for people to start looking at you as someone who knows what they are doing. People are not looking for products, they are looking for leaders to follow.

Every day you should be adding twenty to thirty people as friends. Be careful and do not add links to your website or blog in your response. If you do, Facebook will send out a warning after you send about ten or so, that you are doing things that could get your account closed. If you just send out a friendly note, like the one I suggested, you will have no limit.
