There many questions asked about how to market yourself on a budget. Well, today I am going to show you how to market yourself for free.

For today's class, we are going to focus on Facebook. Facebook has become the #1 social site in the world.


TIP 1: Never be afraid to interact with people and request them as friends. You must build your network. New friends are the best. For any business you must have clients. The least amount of clients, the least opportunity of being successful.

TIP 2: Have substance. You must have something people can take with them. Your goal is to have something people can keep for a long time.

Example: Motivational Speaker, Leaders, Politicians- you are the product. Use quotes that stand out and draw attention. Never be afraid to think outside of the box. Also interact in areas that are Grey. This shows that you are human. Negative marketing is still marketing, just be wise on how involved you get.

TIP 3: Always share other people postings. It links you with them and they are always happy to build there network with someone who respects their work.

TIP 4: Time is of the essence. Use videos and pictures. People do not always have time to read, but it is nice to hear things as you are multitasking. Pictures are worth a thousand words. "Pictures are worth a thousand views." This shows that you are active in the area of expertise that you have.
