1. Sell your products or services
If you have a small business and have already set up a
Facebook page for it, then you can generate more sales through your Facebook
page. All you need to do is iFrame your website, create a functional individual
page for your products, and use tools like Amazon and PayPal widgets to collect
sales. You will most probably need the services of a professional to get this
setup done perfectly.
2. Affiliate marketing
After having built a massive followership on your Facebook
page, you can start making money from it by promoting products that your
followers will most likely be interested in. This is done usually by sharing
review posts that have your affiliate links within them. Each time a fan clicks
on your affiliate link to buy a product you promote on your page, you get a
commission on that sale.
3. Direct ads
If you have a Facebook page with several thousands to
millions of fans, another way to make money from it is to publish adverts for
products and services that will appeal to your fans. How much you will make
with this strategy depends on how targeted your Facebook page is. A Facebook
page with active fans that are interested in one topic such as health or
technology will attract more advertisers than one with no defined audience.
4. Sponsored posts
Sometimes, words bring better results than graphics. This
explains why some advertisers will prefer spreading words of their businesses
or campaigns using well-written posts rather than graphic ads. So, you can also
make money by sharing such sponsored posts on your Facebook page. However, to
make a decent income consistently with this strategy, you need a massive,
active, and targeted followership.
5. Facebook management
You probably have observed that some celebrities,
politicians, and other high-profile individuals are very active on Facebook,
posting new updates daily or even multiple times a day. You wonder how these
people get to do that, considering they are always busy, right? The truth is
that most of them hire Facebook managers to help them engage with their fans or
followers. You too can make a killing working as a Facebook manager for high
profile individuals as well as companies.
6. Facebook surveys
Companies conduct surveys to gather consumer opinions about
a new or existing product or service with the aim of getting more insight into
what consumers really want from them. To conduct surveys companies approach
either bloggers with huge followership, Facebook pages with lots of fans, or
survey sites–provided those channels comprise their target customers. So,
running surveys for companies is another way to monetize your Facebook page.
7. Facebook apps
If you pride yourself on having solid programming skills,
you can turn this into cool cash by developing a Facebook application. The more
valuable and helpful your application is, the more popular it will become, and
the more money you will make from it. Your app could be a Facebook payment
solution, an automatic posts publisher or any other thing that you think will
solve problems for Facebook users.
8. Sponsored likes and shares
You don’t necessarily need to have a Facebook page to make
money on Facebook. You can also make money with your personal Facebook profile
provided you have up to thousands of Facebook friends. Since your friends will
be more likely to read and share anything you post, some individuals and
businesses are ready to actually pay you to promote their offers to your
Facebook friends.
9. Facebook marketing
Because several millions of people visit Facebook daily,
many businesses deem it a good avenue for generating leads. This explains why
most businesses hire experts in Facebook marketing to handle their marketing
campaigns on Facebook. Are you one of those experts who can help businesses
convert Facebook followers and fans to customers? Then you should consider
starting your own Facebook marketing agency.
10. Facebook page setup
Though Facebook is so user-friendly that anyone can use it
without hassles, some people just can’t get around tasks setting up a Facebook
page, using a Facebook app, and so on. You can make money by helping
individuals and business set up not just Facebook pages, but attractive and
professional ones.
