One of my favorite ways to network and market
my shops,
blog and
website is
Facebook. I personally find it really fun to see what other people in my life are up to and I like sharing what's going on in my world too.
However, nobody likes a Facebook friend who is endlessly marketing themselves- it gets tiresome quickly. So instead of constantly linking to my listings or blog posts, I share links that I think are interesting. Perhaps it's an amazing pair of
Louboutins that I could never afford but am drooling over. Perhaps it's a cool
Cole Porter number on You Tube. Or even
an amazing DIY project from one of my favorite bloggers.
This way, I stay on people's radar, but it doesn't turn in to drudgery for me or them. You can't reach people if they are bored or aggravated and block you from their newsreel. And my contacts are more likely to peek on the occasion when I do share a new listing or blog post of my own.
My secret weapon is
the share button I've added to my toolbar. This way I can link to Facebook from anywhere on the web. Whether I'm reading through my blogroll, shopping for curtains online, browsing Etsy or tracking down a recipe I can share it in a few seconds by just clicking in my toolbar and adding a little note to make it personal. Give it a try and be sure to check back and let me know how you like it! And
add me as a friend while you're at it. I'd love to know what you're up to as well!
