Facebook is a great site to meet new friends who are interested in MLM business and find ways to make your MLM business a successful endeavor. You must add friends to your Facebook page every day, being consistent is the key. Finding the right people is very important, they should be part of a network marketing group as you can find them there. Always message for a friend request because you are a stranger to them right now and if you don’t make a personal connection, they have no reason to accept your request. It’s all about sharing ideas and information to help them with their MLM business. Once you’ve built a following, you can set up a fan page for more exposure and to build your list. Remember this is not a place to introduce products, we are establishing our presence and sharing value based content.

Find their biggest needs and what they are looking for and help them find a solution.

It’s time to get in front of the camera! YouTube is viewed by billions every day, keep it simple, always start with who you are and keep your message to the point. No product launch!
