6 Ways to Make Money with Facebook

With an audience that has recently surpassed the 500 million mark marketers using Facebook are redesigning

the rules of engaging customers. This article briefly shows you 6 ways in which you can tap into a market that

has people spending a collective 700 billion minutes per month in!! Can you afford not to be involved in it?

1. Sell Products in Facebooks Marketplace

Facebook’s marketplace is a great place to do business. If you have become tired of its predecessors, the

likes of Ebay or Craig’s list, then this virtual shopping mall is place to market your products. It contains

everything from baby clothes to books, from home furniture to software. It is well worth using to start

selling your products today.

2. Develop an Application

All it takes is a simple idea and you could be the next internet entrepreneur. You do not need to be fluent

in software language such as Java or .PHP. There are bucket loads of programmers available to hire to do

all that dirty work for you. You never know, you may have the next big thing!! Farmville, a recent

application had 110 million downloads alone. And after all, Youtube, now the second biggest search

engine on the internet, was first set up as an application on MySpace!!

3. Become the next big celebrity

Facebook allows you to be heard. It is the equivalent of the town criers or preachers of yesterday.

Anybody can get their own soapbox and have their say in this new 21st

century town square. Facebook

allows you to set up your own fan page and start to communicate with those interested in what you have

to say – your fans! You can start a blog, a newsletter, offer some how-to videos or even start a

subscription page. Who knows you could be the next big thing. Isn’t it time you got paid for your

expertise?

4. Market Research

Facebook provides massive focus groups that are all waiting to give their opinion to you. Audiences can

be highly targeted and easy to access in the Facebook arena. The time and cost it takes to complete a

survey can be reduced to a fraction of the other methods used. If you are a market researcher and you

are not investigating the way in which social media can enhance your business then you need to look at

your current strategy and reequip for the future of the consumer opinions industry.

5. Facebook Ads

Facebook provides a self-serve system that offers highly targeted advertising. This is available on both a

CPC (Cost per Click) and CPM (Cost per 1000) basis. With the huge audience that facebook has, the

unlimited ad inventory available and its ability to insert ads to highly specific demographics the advert

space here is worth its weight in gold. Some smart media buyers even buy the ads and then sell the traffic

through ad networks.

6. Become a Facebook Marketing Expert

The new world of Facebook marketing is far beyond some of the thousands of marketers already out

there. If you know Facebook and how it works, why not offer your services to agencies as well as

companies, big or small. Just as Google changed the way in which search engines advertised, Facebook is

doing in the social networking circles and will continue to in the future. You can help people with your

Facebook strategy. What have you got to lose?
