The topic of social media has moved from the break room to strategic planning meetings. Thousands of businesses have started company pages on Facebook, Linkedin and YouTube.
Cynics still say things like, “Yeah, but a Facebook friend isn’t like a real friend.”
True, but if you run a Yellow Pages advertisement, you wouldn’t evaluate the results based on how many readers are ”real” friends. If your income depends on how many people pay your company for products and services, Facebook friends are far better than real friends, especially once you’ve figured out how to monetize social media.
Why Facebook friends are better than real friends
Facebook buddies are:
- More likely to be interested in your products and services (this is how keywords work)
- Easier and cheaper to communicate with
- Interested in what you’re selling (especially when you use my method of “friending”)
- Likely to share info about your great products and services with their FB pals
- Helpful and remarkably supportive
I can’t help you get real friends
You’re on your own when it comes to making true-life buddies, but I will help your company amass a ton of Facebook friends that will be interested in writing you checks.
In four weekly phone calls starting June 1, I will teach you or someone at your company how to publicize, market, sell and even provide customer service using social media.
This teleclass is quite affordable and very useful, especially for small and new businesses.

Luckily, we don’t have to choose between Facebook friends and real friends, Michael. You can have both! I look forward to talking with you and/or someone from your biz starting June 1.
Your real friend,
Michael Angelo Caruso, Marketing Consultant and Keynote Speaker
