Opinion’s are like backsides, everyone has one and mostly they stink!
But if you want your business to stand out from the crowd online, you must have a strong opinion. Now I have a pet hate and it’s business owners that whinge about having to pay to advertise on Facebook.
You can read my thoughts on the whole thing here.
Does it put some noses out of joint? You had better believe it does. But that is a good thing for me and my business.
How can upsetting people be a good thing?
I am not interested in people that spend hours moaning about how unfair it is that they need to pay to advertise their Business on Facebook. In fact I am only interested in working with people that are keen to cash in on the huge opportunity currently presented by promoted posts.
By having a strong opinion about promoted posts, it immediately pisses the people off that want to moan about it (and they leave) and the flip side is it motivates those interested in learning how to cash in, to find out more about me and my opinion.
So by simply expressing my opinion, I save myself countless hours of speaking to people one on one that don’t really want to know the truth (which is the need to stop fucking whinging because it’s costing them shitloads of money) because they already know what my stance is.
Now you want to know how I got those 24 new likers right?
Well it all comes back to my opinion about promoted posts. Read this image below, and then I will explain why this worked so well.
Someone on Facebook was having a good old fashioned moan about having to pay for you guessed it…
Promoted Posts.
Instead of just doing my usual stop your farking whinging comment (that Beanie the construction Superintendent would do) I used a strategy that I like to call…
When you put it like that.
Watch this quick video that will explain exactly how when you put it like that works.
That is all that I did…
I found a conversation that I didn’t agree with, expressed my opinion on the topic in a way that added value, and a steady stream of new Likers came across to my page to find out more about what I had to say.
So it’s your turn now, this is what you need to do right now to do the exact same thing.
- Pick a controversial topic (or one with a reasonable amount of emotion around it) within your market that you have a strong opinion on.
- Write an article or create a video or an audio with your thoughts on the subject. Be sure to add a heavy dose of when you put it like that factor.
- Use it as a point of conversation on your Facebook Page.
- Look for opportunities to comment (and add value) on conversations that are taking place on the topic on Facebook.
That’s it, I told you that you could do it straight away.
