I remember reading the blog headline awhile back. It was titled:
“Why Social Media Doesn’t Matter Anymore”
This wasn’t something from a rinky-dink blogger. It wasn’t a guy sitting in his parents’ basement, munching on Cheetos and spewing out his thoughts about the state of social media …

It hasn’t been theoretical.
These people aren’t “playing” on social media.

Sure, if you waste your time on Facebook or Twitter arguing with strangers about politics then I’d say give it up.
If you’re using it the right way, you won’t want to leave.
Since I’ve been down here, I’ve had a number of people either subscribe to my print newsletter (at $97/month) and or buy my new online program (Facebook Group Gold) while I’m on “vacation”. To my knowledge, every one of those purchasers is a member of my Facebook group, The Coaching Jungle.
Without social media, and specifically my Facebook group, I wouldn’t have the business that I have.
If you want to get serious about social media and get the same results from your Facebook group, here you go:
