How to get Facebook likes?

[LushDuck]

Hello,

Complete newbie here so please be kind, We are a brand new business based in the UK selling natural/organic hair and skin care products, we have been going about 5 weeks, we are really struggling to get people to like our facebook page! we simply dont know where or how to get people to like it! I mean the right kind of people, i am sure we could buy likes or send people to it that are not really into natural beauty products! so the question is, how do we get our likes up for relevant traffic?

Thanks

Daniel

I've seen promotions where if you like a company, you can get a discount on your next purchase.  Or let people know you'll be running promotions through your page, so they have an incentive to like you.

You can also run Facebook ads to get people to like you. They offer a lot of demographic and interest targeting, so you could target the right audience.  Once you get a few likes, you can target these ads to people who have friends who like you, which makes it more likely for that person to add you, since they can see their friend already likes you.

Daniel,

I second John's suggestion with FB ads. You can target by interest. Because you have a natural/organic product I'll bet you can reach a nicely targeted audience. Within your ad give them a reason to like you: a discount, giveaway, promises of useful updates...sometimes even just a pretty picture will draw people in.

I've had a lot of success with FB ads (18,600 fans and counting) and I think with proper targeting you can too.

Going to give the Facebook ads a try
