Facebook is a great place to find recruits for your network marketing business
. You can easily find qualified leads because people put information in their profile which lets you know that they are a potential recruit for your business. I built a list of friends of over 1000 people in one month on Facebook. Almost every one of them is a network marketer. You might be asking why I would choose network marketers since they already have a business. The reason is that the hardest task I have found in traditional recruiting is convincing people that network marketing is an acceptable business that they can do. I don’t have to convince other network marketers. They already get it.
Just like your normal social life, you need to build relationships online with your Facebook friends. People will join a business with a person that they trust and feel that they want to work with. Network marketing is a team business so it is important to find people who want to work together on a team. Therefore, when you make friends with someone on Facebook, do not start your message by trying to sell them on your business. It is possible by doing that you will get a few recruits here and there but in the long run you will lose many more possible recruits because you turned them off by trying to make the sale too soon. Remember if you follow my procedure of adding network marketers as friends, they already have a business. They are not going to join your business unless they can see an advantage that your business has over what they are already doing.
