Title: Best way to monetize a facebook group
Post by: BTC Turkiye on August 26, 2014, 10:58:26 PM
I have a Facebook BTC group in Turkish that has lots of members. What would be the best way to monetize that group?
What companies give ads for those kinds of groups and what would you suggest?

 As far as I know when you get that big people come to you for ads  , you need to be that big for any decent amount.

 Worst case scenario , open an auction here stating your info and people will bid.

 If people are not coming to you for ads and if people are not bidding for your auction , that means its not interested enough to give money for ads yet. Having the same problem :D

I am not a Facebook expert, but I thought you can only post posts "as page" and not "as group"? You can only recommended things/companies as "the admin of the group" but I doubt anyone cares? (I mean, if the company itself posts in your group the exposure would be the same? - Of course you can delete other ads, but yeh.)

Of course a group does have a "pinned post" so you could put an advertisement there, although I don't think that's really great. You can also put some links at "About" info, but again I don't think that's very effective for an advertisement.

I would say just enjoy you have a group of Turkish BTC fans on Facebook so you can have nice discussions and stuff. Perhaps it gives you an advantage for an own product/site which can be interesting for Turkish bitcoin users.

If you do think you can put ads there, I would definitely try the Auction forums. Just understand your target group. IMO it should be at least a company that is active in Turkey or specifically targeting Turkish BTC users.

Maybe you can sell a product in bitcoins to your users or get some deals with turkish suppliers and you get a fee of the sales you refer.
