Facebook Vs Social media Vs Business Engagement
We are told time and time agian it is drilled into our brains if you join facebook and make a page just for friends and one for your business and you will be successful why does iot seem like it id so easy when the truth is.
Social media is not about people siging up to be asked to join a business and if you have been on facebook or socila media period how many timnes do you get invations to join a opportunity to make money, how many times have you been put in facebook jail?
for using facebook for what you thought it was supposed to be used for building your business the real truth facebook is about brining people togather and helping them connect with long lost friends ect...
But you can build a business on facebook but it comes with a cost a BIG cost as matter of fact and if you do not pay that cost you will never be successful on facebook so if you are looking at building a business facebook will be a hit or miss .

I hate almost everything about Facebook. I'm not terribly excited about the fact that at some point I might have to advertise there, but if that's what's necessary, I'll have to just grin and bear it. Facebook has caused a ton of societal problems, in my opinion.

I totally agree Levi. I worked hard for over a year to get followers on the for my business account. I'm struggling to get to 500. In the meantime started a Pinterest account about 9 months ago and I'm nearly at 10,000 followers.

Facebook works for your business if it is a social business ie like mine, a gym. My gym facebook is connected to my partners personal facebook & his is connected to his sons facebook & he is a pro body builder so my facebook does work for my business but it is only because of connections. It isn't what you know on facebook, it is who you know & who you are connected to.
Facebook has definitely changed in the time I have been using it. Not sure whether it will get any better for businesses except for paid ads. But there are other options out there. Thanks for sharing, Levi.
FB used to be good but more and more they just want you to pay for advertising. Considering they tell you that paying will reach less than a third of the amount of people who follow your page, who should be seeing it anyway, its not a great prospect.
I totally agree with you Linda,
the prospects on face book are not business building types and to me prospects of face book really do not come there looking for business tips unless you can build a business for free do you agree?
Best Wishes,

Nice post!
FB is not really my thing but the one that flourished there, all the better for him or her. I preferred to move on, for my part.

The best way to win on Facebook is Joining Groups I actually made my first referral through Facebook.
Post about your own achievements and never forget people watch because most are struggling and with time you will succeed but you need persistence and determination
I think that is true in most cases but there is more that fits into being successful with face book and I feel some people that are successful hold back the actual formula to actually achieve real success on face book.
Best Wishes ,

I do agree but you can find that formula and I spend more time in the morning just to watch as people post and share and most they just share their success and show proof real proof because people are intelligent to read a lie no matter how coated in chocolate it is..
I have tried this formula and it’s working insanely for me that my friends who actually suggested I try it are so surprised so you keep trying things and something will click... All the best

I also don't like Facebook, there is something that makes it idle.
The way to share business through Facebook is with the Bussines Manager, you have to have a personal profile, and from there you get a fan page with the theme you want or promote a business.
You tell Fb that you want to monetize, from this example it is correct.
