[AMA] Facebook Pages and Groups

As a FB Group admin what are some monetization methods you've used on Facebook groups beyond the obvious of just sending them to a blog post every week?

You should focus on building a list that you can market to over time. Your goal should be getting as many people from your group onto your list as possible. I would highly recommend building a list of messenger subscribers rather than an email list since open and click-through rates are significantly higher on messenger and you can use bot software like Manychat (they have a free plan) to run automated sequences and flows to funnel people into buying - similar to how you would with email marketing tools like Mailchimp.

Engage your group often with creative ways to get people into your messenger list. think outside the box here. What I've had a lot of success with is using Manychat's Ref URL growth tool. It's essentially a link you can share that people can click on and opt-in directly via messenger to any sequence you set up and become a subscriber. I run weekly giveaways, and announce them in the group. To enter for a chance to win they have to click my Ref URL and go through my sign-up sequence. Messenger automation works amazing when used with groups and executed properly. If you can afford it, Zapier allows you to integrate Manychat with your group which makes this whole process really elegant.

Some other good ways to get people from your group to your list is by offering freebies such as an e-book that they can claim via messenger or making fun quizes with your chat bot and sharing them to the group. Hope that helps! Good luck.

so really the goal should be messenger subscribers rather than group members?

The group and the list are both equally important components of your funnel. Focus on getting people into the group first and then once they join, yes your ultimate goal should be turning them into messenger subscribers. It's all about thinking outside the box to accomplish this and leveraging automation to get them through your funnel and to nurture them into potential buyers.
 
Hi Thx for your post ...
What the best way to monetize 700k active subscriber on MC... The Facebook page is in entertainement ( Jokes,Funny video....) and we have 450k likes...
Thx
 
Last month I just decided to promote my Amazon affiliate Screenshot_20190828_230531.jpg site through FB groups.
I joined few groups of niche relevant and promoted some best how to articles & got some visitors to my site but 0 conversions, later few days back FB totally banned my account so I quit this method.
 
i do this strategy

i get a video related to my niche
i post it in my page
i share the page's post in every group related to my niche then i target the video views with my offer
i did this and I get 11K views (i can not get more coz the groups are limited ), is that enough to start advertising?
 
I have some Facebook pages and I don't know how to use them effectively I mean any tips or trick to get good result not the traditional way

I would need to know a little bit more information before I could offer you any advice. How many likes do your pages have? What category are they? North American or worldwide audiences?
 
Hi There
Can you please estimate days/time when is safe to post a link from fresh account?
How to switch multiple account? I tried with clearing cookies up still got banned on both accounts.

Thank you.
 
Thnks for the AMA. Im planing to promote affiliate products / apps in niche related fb groups. (Cryptocurrency)
I have found some groups with mor than 3m members.
Currenty Im researching for a uniqe content stratrgy.
Any tips about affiliate marketing using fb groups

The best tip I can offer is to avoid selling directly in the groups and to instead have your own blog or website where you can write articles or reviews on these Crypto products and apps. You can talk about which ones are better and provide useful value to the reader.

Once you have a few posts, start sharing those into the groups you found with enticing captions to get people to click. Groups were implemented to drive community and helpfulness, so if you come across as trying to help the group you will have more success than just selling and promoting. Good luck!

It's tough to monetize audiences with such broad interests such as jokes and funny videos. The more segmented of an audience you have the easier it becomes to sell things to them because you have a better idea of their interests and what motivates them.

I would suggest making a list of different affiliate products that you think your audience may be interested in (Clickbank offers maybe?). Set up a new MC flow to ask subscribers questions and figure out some useful marketing information about them. You can funnel them into different sequences based on their answers and promote varying offers depending on the sequence. Test different offers in different niches to get an idea of what types of offers your audience is most interested in. Good luck :)

You probably won't make much with 11k views. I would focus on growing your Facebook page audience rather than relying on the groups for all your traffic

If you plan on using a completely brand new account I would suggest posting and sharing various things for at least a month first otherwise you will get banned very fast. If you can afford a VPN I would highly recommend getting one as it makes managing multiple accounts really easy.
 
I used to spam facebook group in the past. My target was getting as many visitors from facebook to my adsense site. I've stopped doing this for 1 year plus already since my facebook accounts kept getting banned fast. Now I'm kinda low on money and need to gain any earning. So I think I would link posting to facebook group again, because that was what I am good at in the past.

Last time I can remember, I used to warm up aged accounts around 3 days posting some stuff before link posting in groups. But it seems things changes, cannot do that now.

1. May I know how long should I warm up accounts before posting link to groups?

2. Is there any software that can help me warm up multiple accounts, like 30+ accounts? because doing it manually is so much time wasting even for just one account.

If you plan on using brand new accounts I would suggest warming them up for at least a month before you use them to promote anything. Make the new profiles look as real as you can by changing profile & cover photos every few days, sharing content, and adding friends. There are lots of people on these forums you can buy aged accounts from as well. This may be your better option if you don't mind spending a little bit and don't feel like going through the effort of warming up accounts.

I am not aware of any software that can do this at that kind of quantity, Facebook as gotten really good at cracking down on this sort of thing with extensive verification requests if they become suspicious. Always use a VPN to make these accounts if you have access to one. Good luck :)
 
Should I add Facebook friends from related groups and invite them to like my page?

Or just post in the group with links to my page
 
How do I grow a facebook group? Right now I joined facebook groups related to my niche and posted my group there and people are joining
 
2 questions regarding facebook, of course if you don't mind answering !

I have like 70-80 aged (year 2011) facebook accounts. How can i use them in a proper way to post my blog articles on facebook ?
Any suggestion would be appreciated ?

Or if you have any other idea about how to use these accounts feel free to share it here or even PM.

Thanks in advance

Just post in the groups, but don't share your page link directly though as group admins don't like this. Instead, I would suggest sharing posts from your page into the group that you think would be relevant. Sharing posts from your page that encourage comments are great because every comment bumps your post back to the top of the group. People will start liking your page if the posts you are sharing are relevant or helpful to them. Share the posts into as many groups as you can for best results. Cheers
