“Facebook Marketing is not for growth in sales but only for spreading the awareness about the brand”. Whoever said this did not know that around 52% of the total marketers generated leads through Facebook in the year 2013. Yes that’s right. But what about the rest 48%??? May be they did not use the right techniques to generate the leads and therefore today we bring some useful tips that will help that other 48% to generate leads via Facebook.
1. Use Call to Action button on Facebook
Earlier this year Facebook introduced this amazing feature which allows you to add Call To Action button to your Facebook page. You can link the Call To Action button to your website’s sign up page or any other page that you think will get you business.
2. Build Forms on Tab
With a little help from your design and coding team you can custom build the forms in the Facebook tabs itself. The forms can be about signing up for newsletter or registering for an event. You can also offer some incentives for filling up the forms like the 100th person registering will some goodies or something like that. That will encourage your fans to fill up the form. Make sure that the form is not too long and does not ask for too much of information.
3. Use Targeted Advertising
You need to keep some budgets aside if you want to generate good number of leads from Facebook. But creating an ad and creating a targeted ad are two different things. Facebook offers many targeting options that will help you reach the right person, so make sure that you target the right audience.

4. Exciting Contests
Whether you want to increase your engagement level or generate leads, contests have been proven to be the best way. Design a contest which generates replies from a particular set of people who are interested in your product. For example, if you are in jewellery then design a contest that is targeted towards the ladies.
5. Include links to your website
While posting on Facebook, you can give your website link and hope that people will click on it. Make sure that you don’t overdo it. Posting your website link again and again will make people lose interest in your posts. When you post your website link then see to it that your post is somewhat related to the link provided by you.
