Are you using Facebook or any other social networking site to help promote your business?  If you are, how is it working out for you?

Well, if you’re like most people, you’re not getting the results you hoped for.  You have your profile out there, you have a few friends or contacts…but not much else is happening.

Even with 110 million active Facebook users, the above scenario seems to be more of the rule, rather than the exception.

So this week I sat down and did a video interview with Shama Hyder.  Shama is a Facebook marketing expert.  And we discussed how the average person can start using Facebook as a very effective marketing tool for their business.

We covered things like how to properly setup your Facebook account (most people do it completely wrong), how to properly start growing your network of contacts (again, most people do it wrong), how to actually turn these contacts into clients…and…much more.

Now just to be clear here, Shama is not an “Internet Marketer”, as in someone who is full of hype and shallow promises.  So don’t expect anything like that in this interview.  Rather, she is a “New Media Marketer”, which is someone who doesn’t need to use hype because their knowledge and professionalism stand on their own.

Now onto the video.  To watch my video interview with Shama, just click the play button below:

   Dave,

   Great interview and resource! Thanks for that. Just to let you know the last 56 seconds of audio are garbled, video is ok but the audio is in need of help.

   Hi Bert,

   I’m aware the audio in the last minute of the video is garbled. It’s a problem with the service hosting the video (the original video is fine)…I’m seeing if I can get it fixed now.

   Thanks – Dave

   Hi Dave
   Great interview. I really did think these social network sites were a time consuming waste for the effort you have to put into keeping stuff updated but Shama has opened my eyes and i will be opening accounts at a couple of networks over the weekend and perhaps using her company services.

   Hi Dave,

   Great Interview. Just wondering how did you record this? It looks live but I know it’s way to smooth for a live broadcast.
