Start a Facebook Group, part 3

Now That You’ve Started a Facebook Group

Now that you started your own Facebook group, let’s talk a little more about your role as admin. You’re going to be seen as the leader. People are really going to look up to you. They’re going to turn to you with questions. They’ll want support, help, and advice. As their leader, they’ll expect you to guide them at every turn. This is a good thing – it’s why you’ve created a community in the first place.

There are so many good things that can come out of being the leader. You’ll see people who come into your group from the very start of the process. They’ll come to you desperate for help and you’ll help them and they’ll achieve. They’ll thank you and attribute their eventual success to you. That’s a great feeling. Some people will be incredibly desperate and in despair and you will have a very positive effect on their lives.

The Basics of a Facebook Group

If you’re active on Facebook at all, then you probably belong to Facebook groups already. Just in case you don’t, let’s talk about the basics. Facebook groups make it easy to connect with specific groups of people with shared interests. These groups can be private communities or fairly open communities. Within these communities, real relationships are created.

Facebook groups make it easy to share updates, photos, discussions, documents, and more. These groups are very dynamic and can be created on just about any topic under the sun. You can go ahead and search on your Facebook search bar for keywords related to your niche to see if there are any Facebook groups already on your topic (it’s a positive sign if there are). If there are you may want to join them so you can get a feel for what these groups are all about.

Start a Facebook Group, part 1

I started running a Facebook group even though I had never done much with Facebook personally. I was intrigued with the idea of a group that would add value to the Earn 1K A Day membership forum I already had. When I saw my friend, Barb Ling, start her Facebook group and get a lot out of it, I gave it more thought.

I first considered starting a low-cost paid Facebook group. But, I decided not to charge for my Facebook group in the end. I decided to make it free and accessible beyond Earn 1K A Day. I hoped it would be an enticement for new people to begin to know, like, and trust me. And eventually, I hoped that people would jump over to become paid Earn 1K A Day members.

Amazon FBA: Private Labeling (part 3)

What to Check Before You Invest

Before you invest in a product to private label, you have to make sure that the company is legitimate. It can be helpful if they have been verified by a third-party, which is what some sourcing guides offer.

You want to make sure the product you’re getting is of top quality and that your customers will be glad to receive it. Reviews, and your reputation, really do matter.

Some manufacturers take great pictures and do a nice job of talking things up, but the actual product leaves a lot to be desired. Since you are private labeling, you are putting your name and reputation on the line. Be sure you always order a sample of the product so you know you are getting something legitimate. It’s definitely wise to pay the cost and shipping charges to purchase a sample before you commit to buying hundreds or thousands of them.

Amazon FBA: Private Labeling (part 2)

What to Sell

When searching for something to have manufactured for you to sell on Amazon, the criteria will be slightly different than it would be if you were searching for something to profit with by retail arbitrage.

For example, books make excellent items for retail arbitrage, but of course you’re probably not going to manufacture books and put your own label on them. So too with many other items like toys.

I don’t want to restrict your brainstorming, but I think you’ll find it useful with just a little bit of guideline that I’ve found useful.
