5 Facebook Groups To Help You Grow Your Business

Hands up if you spend 80% of your life browsing on, being updated by or locating a wifi signal for facebook? Okay maybe more like 90%..

That being said, where is everyone actually hanging out on there? And why for such long periods of time?

I can give at least one reason for the chunks of hours lost.

Facebook groups.

If you didn't know by now, every blogger and entrepreneur seems to be a member of several facebook groups.

Why?

Because they're active communities buzzing with people who are in the same industry as you. That means you have 24/7 access to the people you admire, their followers and like-minded individuals you can network and build a relationship with - or maybe even netflix and chill with ;) - KIDDING.

In saying that, I am member of far too many facebook groups to count. But there are five that I actually spend most of my time on. Five that I believe you would benefit a whole hell of a lot from being a part of. Five that I know will help you grow your business to be the success you want it to be.

Want to know what those groups are?..

UNCAGED LIFERS

This group is one of my favourites to hand because it's full of incredible people who are wanting to uncage their life and build a profitable business. Just like me! No way ;) I've found this to be my go to group whenever I'm needing advice, want to share a win or just a good ol' gossip.

BABES IN BUSINESS

I've been girl crushing on Cassie Howard for a few months now. She is amazing. In a couple of months she built a 6-figure coaching business. Prior to that she owned a super successful couponing website. Crazy huh? She really invests in her community and gives you a lot of extremely juicy tips on building a successful business. If you're in a serviced based field like coaching or consulting, this is definitely the group for you.

#GOINDEPENDENT

I think the entire internet knows and loves Regina. The infopreneur queen, her facebook group is all about the entrepreneur wanting to create a business that sells info-products and makes a great income. I always come to this group for advice on info product creation. They are amazeballs. Yes, that's still a word we use in 2016.
