Crowd Conversion

On March 13th 2010 Google admitted that Facebook had overtaken them as the most visited site in the US. Facebook now gets more traffic than Google! Facebook has 400,000,000users and the average time someone stays on Facebook is 55 minutes. With 39 Billion page views per month, Facebook now accounts for 25% of ALL Internet page views in the USA

It is very probable that your target market is on Facebook considering these numbers. If you own a business, Facebook is the place to do you marketing. Imagine the impact on your business if you drove masses of traffic from Facebook to your website. What about selling your products and services from Facebook? The thing is that you need to know how to use social media sites to do this. This is where the term Crowd Conversion comes in - it is the ability to convert the crowds of people on a site such as Facebook into paying customers for your business.

Robert Grant and Ian David Chapman have learnt how to do this very successfully over the the last 18 months. Robert Grant has just released a free video telling his story. i have just finished watching it and was quite amazed. In fact it was hard to get to sleep last night as my mind raced over all the possibilities that I discovered in the video

A Facebook fan page can be used to attract prospects to become fans and buyers of your business's products and services. Over 1 million local businesses now have a fan page on Facebook. A Facebook fan page according to Facebook's terms and conditions can be used for commercial purposes. Every day 15 million users join a fan page.

By understanding the concepts behind a Facebook fan page, businesses can market and sell products very successfully. One of the reasons this can happen is the viral nature of Facebook. For example, if Joe (who has 400 friends) decides to become a fan of a business fan page, Facebook tells all of Joe's friends that he became a fan. This motivates Joe's friends to visit the fan page and become fans themselves, and Facebook then tells all of their friends that they have joined the fan page. This can mean rapid growth for a business fan page, and increased exposure for that business.

The status updates on Facebook if used strategically cause word-of-mouth referrals and marketing to be on steroids.When someone becomes a fan any status updates are posted on that person's wall.

Robert Grant has released a video showing businesses how to leverage the the power of a Facebook fan page. In this video Robert gives a case study of one of his students, and demonstrates step-by-step how the student is making money from a fan page. This student, Jane, gained over 3000 fans in one month, and after six months had 10,000 fans. The video shows how Jane is able to make money with a Facebook page. Robert also shares his own success story with Facebook.. I highly recommend that you watch Robert's free video. You have to give your email address to watch it-but it is worth it as it is full of excellent content.
