Why Are You On Facebook?

Why Are You On Facebook?

It seems the question I get asked the second most often (the most often is “What exactly is it that you do?)  is how do you make money with Facebook. Well the most obvious thing is running an ad, which can make you some money but that is not my main source of income from Facebook.

My main source is connections.  Facebook is now calling “fans” connections.  Good choice because that is what it is really all about…Connections.

Everyone on Facebook has a primary “connection” reason for being there.  Connecting with friends, connecting with family, connecting with worthy opponents who play games, getting a date, finding a mate,  or making money.

The questions is why are you on Facebook?  Any answer is good as long as your motives are good. If you are one that is just there to play games then that is great you are having success. If you are there to connect with family and friends great.  I’ve seen more of my friends pictures this year than I have in my whole life.  But if promoting your business or yourself is the objective then you need to treat this seriously.
