Facebook and Google+ Groups


Facebook and Google+ groups are much like forum marketing,
 except they use the social media networks as their platform, rather than stand alone forums. The best way to use these tools is to search the networks for groups where your target customers are already active.

Become actively involved in those groups, but never by spamming 
the groups with your product or service advertisements. You’ll be removed from the group, and you may compromise your social media accounts. Instead, look for ways you can become helpful. Answer questions, and offer to be available for questions whenever possible. Never participate in a group for the sole purpose of promoting your business. It will show, and people will start to ignore you.


When you start to see your own brand/community expand, you may
 want to start your own Facebook and/or Google+ group to allow your followers to come together and discuss your product/service. They can talk about how it’s helped them, how they want to use it, ask for advice from other users, etc. all while providing a real customer testimonial base for your perspective customers. It can also serve as an excellent customer service vehicle once your business is up and running.
