Hey guys. I am a newb here, so forgive me if someone already posted this tactic. I just attended a great webinar put on by Jay Boyer and Jason Fladlein. It was all about making money with Facebook Fan Pages. During the webinar, Jason mapped out an astounding tactic that I'm going to start using right away. Here's the synopsis: You approach online marketing "gurus" (or whatever niche you're in) who have reached or are bumping up against their limit of 5000 friends on their profile. Ask them if it would be okay if you built a fan page celebrating the guru's coolness. Of course, they will say "YES!" You then build a fan page that features YOUR affiliate links to the GURU's products. Here's what will happen: First, he will 'Like' your page. When he does this, his 5000 friends will also see him liking the page. Then his friends will come and 'Like' your page, too. Considering they're already familiar with the guru and his products, they'll probably buy a few things while they're at your page. Also, all these new 'Likes' will provide enough organic Facebook SEO goodness that you should shoot right up to the top of google for the guru's name or the product's name, depending on what you called the page in the first place. Just rinse and repeat for as many gurus as you can get a hold of. This should have your Paypal account blowing up in no time! Hope you give it a try! I know I'm gonna have fun with this!
I use a Wordpress-based plugin software to make the fan pages. It's super-easy to use once you have it uploaded to one of your blogs: http://bit.ly/iframesoftware Hope this comes in handy!
