Instead of you being like most network marketers that get excited about joining a program, but never take the steps to start recruiting, I’d like to show you how you can use Facebook to instantly build your team.

But first...

Why Facebook Works Well For Promoting Network Marketing Opportunities

Since Facebook is a social platform, it’s perfect for building relationships and interacting with others.

You can essentially create your own community of members that are interested in what you have to share.

As your Facebook group grows, so does the social proof associated with it.

Plus, Facebook updates help create a viral effect for your group: the more people that join, the more notifications go out to others (to their walls) about the group, and the trend naturally continues.

So, instead of trying to build a business on your own, you can build your downline by inviting others to join these groups for free.

With that in mind, I’d like to give you a brief outline of what steps are needed to promote a network marketing opportunity on Facebook.

In the very near ...
... future, we’ll look at each one of these steps individually to help maximize your success.

Facebook Group Downline Building Step #1 - Create Your Group

By going to the Facebook Groups page while logged into Facebook, you can start setting up your group for free.

When you first go to setup your group, you’ll put in the following info:

- The group name...
- Friends/members you want to add to the group...
- The privacy level you want to have...

Facebook Group Downline Building Step #2 - Create An E-mail Capture Page

Create a capture form that explains—without mentioning the specific company just yet—what the benefits of joining will be.

Mention that, since the payout is level-based, those who join through the capture form first will be ‘time stamped’ to be on the top of the team.

This capture page is the first step after someone joins the actual Facebook group.

Send new members of the page this capture form, explaining the reasons above.

Facebook Group Downline Building Step #3 - Network With Related Pages

This step is pretty self-explanatory...

Look for other pages and groups related to network marketing and connect with others.

As you join these pages and find other people within the industry, you might also consider sending a quick personal message with an invite to your group.

Facebook Group Downline Building Step #4 - Advertise Your Facebook Link

Above all, remember that it’s important not to spam people.

Aside from what’s already been mentioned, here are a few other ways to promote your link:

1. Share with friends and family...
2. Include a link in forum and e-mail signatures...
3. Shoot a quick video about what the group is about...
4. Let others know through your updates on your blog...
5. Etc...

Facebook Group Downline Building Step #5 - Run A Webinar To Announce The Company

Send a message to the e-mail list you’ve built with your capture page, and create an ‘event invite’ on Facebook.

By creating a pre-launch for the Webinar, you can have plenty of time to build excitement and get as many attendees possible.

For those that can’t make it, be sure to record the webinar, because you’ll need it later.

Facebook Group Downline Building Step #6 - Release The Company Join Form

At the end of the webinar, give out the link for others to start joining.

You could also send the link via e-mail, for those that couldn’t make it, but it may also be a good idea to send it with the webinar replay and include the link underneath that.

Facebook Group Downline Building Step #7 - Keep The Opportunity Open For 48 Hours

At the end of the webinar event, leave registration open for 48 hours and then close the event.

Between the time stamps and the limited timeframe to join, there is a stronger sense of urgency to take action.

Summary For Building A Team Through Facebook

By following the steps above, you no longer have to worry about how to build your network marketing downline.

Using Facebook, you can network with others in your industry, and use the groups feature to create a group that builds itself!
