A question I’m regularly asked is how can I increase the amount of fans on my facebook page? Now I usually respond with the question “who is your market” because I find too many people are focused on numbers than what their real goal is. Sure it’s simple to generate a ton of facebook fans with fancy contests but as significantly what type of fans can you attract. I am surprise how many people miss this point.

All traffic is not made equal irrespective of what modality you are using to attract that traffic. At the end of the day it’s what you do with those fans that matters right? What kind of impression did you leave on them? Did you represent your brand well? Did you instil your values in the minds of your prospects?

Now before you go on thinking this article is just going to be a handful of theoretical questions let’s get down to business. You would like more fans, and now you ought to be reminded that all traffic is not made equal. Attracting fans that are interested in what you have got to offer is more important than numbers will ever be. But the good news is that I’m going to show you how to double up your fans on facebook while tempting qualified prospects that desire your service.

So now that we all know we actually have two objectives let’s chat about the 1st one, the easiest way to attract consumers that want what you have to offer. The simplest way to draw in qualified prospects is to give them what they need. Sounds fairly simple right? When you understand your prospect you ought to know what gets them interested and excited. Tap into that and give them something of price. It might be a program, an electronic book, a free report, a video or anything that resonates with your audience. Once we have that made, here is how to double your fans.

After you have what they need, you’ve got a reason to make them like you. You can create motivation to push the like button on your page by offering your “customer magnet” content as a free offer when they click like on your fan page. You can custom design your fan page to sell your content in exchange for a “like” and show it to them right when they click like. The like button is important as the second they click that they like your page, all their peers now see that you’ve clicked and can also like your page. It is proven that incentivizing your like button can boost your “likes” by 50% and that is not even counting all of the viral activity your page can gain if you have a great piece of content.
