Here’s a startling statistic that will force you to really think about how much money you’re probably leaving on the table on Facebook.
Studies show that the average Facebook “Like” is worth about $10 a year. Some of those people will buy from you when they see you promoting things, but most won’t.
If that same person who “Likes” you, however, also gives you their name and email address, that fan is worth a whopping $120 a year!
In other words, convince them to opt in on Facebook and they are now worth 11 times more than if they had simply “Liked” you.
Why a Facebook Opt-in Is Worth That Much
Once they opt in, you can email them valuable content like tips and advice on how to solve a business problem and really promote your expertise.
If they’ve been with you for awhile and love your content, chances are far greater that they’ll buy from you if you send them an email promotion instead of asking for the order on Facebook where most people hate blatant promotions.
That’s why selling on Facebook is usually ineffective. You need to get your fans onto an email list. Right now!
