Two Simple Facebook Strategies to Increase Your Leads by 18%
If you want to successfully grow your direct sales or network marketing business you must have a steady stream of new leads, and for that to happen you need a proven, repeatable system to reach out to new people every single day and build relationships with them.
However, not all relationships and leads are created equal. Plus a lead is no good unless you have the ability to have a one-on-one conversation with them.
For example, maybe you did a show, or perhaps you met somebody the grocery store or at church and you exchanged phone numbers. You call them, but they don’t recognize your number, so you leave a message. But if they don’t call you back what good was that lead? You made the effort, but you couldn’t get into a one-on-one conversation with them.
Here’s another example. You’ve probably met someone on social media, thought they would be a great prospect, and the next step is that you then try to get better acquainted by sending them a Facebook friend request — so that you can then have a one-on-one conversation. So you send the friend request and sometimes it gets accepted, but most often it doesn’t. Again, what good was all that work that you did finding that lead if you don’t have the ability to have that all important one-on-one conversation?
So what’s the solution?
Rather than wasting your time chasing people who aren’t interested, and are never going to be an ideal lead for you, instead, it’s better to focus on building relationships with people who resonate with you and your message, and are more likely to want to work with you.
So how do you get people who ARE interested to ‘raise their hand’ and then how best can you strike up a one-on-one conversation with them online?
There are two fantastic ways of doing this, using Facebook’s tools.
Firstly you can run a low-cost Facebook Ads campaign to get more fans and likes on your Facebook Page. For just $2–3 per day this gives you a constant flow of new fans on your Page. Then you simply send your new fans a friend request, and reasonable percentage will be happy to accept. Remember, these are people who saw your Like Ad on Facebook, and were attracted to it enough to ‘Like’ your page, and then they also accepted your friend request. As you can see — these people are raising their hand to say they like what you stand for, and they’re happy to take the friendship further. The cool thing is that now they’ve liked your page and accepted your friend request you now also have the ability to chat with them in a one-on-one conversation, which is the best basis for someone becoming a lead, and customer.
Secondly you can take advantage of Facebook’s new Chatbots. This exciting new technology allows you to interact between your Facebook page and Messenger automatically!
So you can now automatically message people who have commented on any of your Facebook Page posts, or any of your boosted posts. For example, if you decided to boost (promote with a low cost ad) a Facebook post with an offer for your free download, or your free group, your paid group, your parties…all kinds of things, no matter what time someone comments on that post, you can immediately initiate the conversation automatically with them by sending them a message via your Chatbot. Your message can be crafted with images, links, even a video to make it as engaging as possible and it gets sent right to their messenger inbox. As soon as they interact with that first message they become a ‘subscriber’ of your page and you then have the ability to message them one-on-one, anytime. People who reply to your message are now hot leads you can interact with any time — they’ve already commented on your post, and interacted with your automatic message — so they’ve engaged with you twice, which means they are much more likely to be a great lead!
These 2 strategies are directly responsible for business builders successfully increasing their leads by up to 18% with some even getting over 70 leads in a single day. This is liberating because it means your will never again be short of leads, and you will always have new interested people to talk to in your business.
