How To Get Tons Of Referrals To Your Business For Free
Can you really grow a network marketing business or any online business for that matter with free advertising? Of course you can but it is crucial that you follow a specific method. If you are struggling in your business and do not have a big budget then read on.
I said it once and I will say it again. I love paid traffic. It is fast to get leads into your business and it works. Get a ton of traffic to your offer and it is likely that some will convert to sales.
But here we go again. Many people are afraid of taking that risk and spending money on their business. What if they do not get leads? What if the leads do not convert to sales? What if …?
Well if you are one of those who err on the side of caution and would like to generate leads using free methods so you can get your cashflow going then you can use free methods.
I would like to add this friendly disclaimer though. Free methods do take time and if you are in network marketing then you know about building that KLT factor (know, like, trust).
But no one ever said it cannot work. Here is how I get leads to my business for free.
Provide value first. Please do not spam your links showing off your product. That is a big no-no.
People do not like being sold to and to see their timeline flooded with “buy this, buy that” posts, will most likely result in you having less friends.
Instead find a way to show people how your product works. Use your product and show your results.
Help people find a solution to their problems. So if you are in the weight loss niche, show the results of other clients who have used your product and seen results.
Do not mention the name of the product and do not post a link. Create curiosity.
By doing so you will have people asking you for more information rather than you asking them to look at your offer.
If you are in the make money online niche, again show your results. Are you getting leads into your business? Then take a screenshot and show your results. Are you earning an income? Take a screenshot and show people your results.
Facebook Groups
Facebook groups are a little easier to get leads because you are targeting people who are already interested in what you have to offer.
Join Work From Home groups or Make Money Online groups. There are many on Facebook.
What I would recommend here is that instead of putting a link to your product page, put a link to a capture page so people can input their contact name and email. That way you can follow up with them automatically through email marketing if they do not buy the first time.
If you do not have an email marketing system then I would recommend that you get one through Mail Chimp, Aweber or Get Response. These systems have free trials for a period of 14 to 30 days.

With Facebook Groups because there are a lot of posts, your posts can sometimes get lost so I would recommend posting in these groups 3-4 times throughout the day.
You Tube
Do you know that video marketing is quickly becoming the number one way to “sell” a product? According to Forbes.com 64% of people are more likely to buy a product after they have seen a video about it.
Now I am not saying to use your company’s marketing video as your own. Be creative. Create your own content and upload your own videos.
People buy you and not your company so when they see you talking about the product they are more likely to purchase from you.
If you can do How To videos, this is another way to develop traction in your business. People flock to YouTube to find out how to do things and when you provide a solution, they are more likely to support you by buying from you because you added value to their journey.
Instagram is huge and currently has over 700 million monthly active users. So that’s potentially 700 million eyeballs on your offer.
The way that you can use Instagram is by providing value through motivation, inspiration and lifestyle photos.
Just like Facebook, do not spam your links in every photo. Show how your business has contributed to a lifestyle change. Post images of your family, of fun things that your business has allowed you to do.
Post images of you, using your product. Instagram is all about high-quality imagery and it is so important that your images tell a story.
To find a targeted audience remember that hashtags play an important role. Use at least 5-10 relevant hashtags in your posts.
As always you want to remain consistent with Instagram and posting 3-4 times on this platform will get your content delivered to your audience at rate that is not considered too annoying.
These are four ways that you can grow your network marketing or online business using free methods. It is also how I do the same in my business but pay attention to the fact that consistency is key.
There are many more ways that you can use free methods to advertise your business. This is just a handful. To learn more ways I have created this free report that you can read in your own time and implement right away. Take a look here.
