Facebook is one of the strongest social media platforms that have been dominating its competitors with over a billion users worldwide. It presents a great opportunity for business and people like us to generate money in the comfort of our own home.

To begin, here are 4 ways you can make money through Facebook:

1. SELL YOUR STUFF

Social media, defined as websites or applications that enable the users to share content and to network, allows daily access of many consumers…all over the world. With this knowledge, you can supplement your Facebook post with a Facebook Ad.

For example, you may clean up the clutter in your closet and find the things that you deem to be unused or underused and sell them to your friends and family through a creative Facebook page. Treat it as your virtual “garage sale”!

Alternatively, you can turn your hobbies (e.g., baking cakes or making soaps) into your home-based business.

2. USE SOCIAL INFLUENCE TO INCREASE SALES

Aside from directly selling on your Facebook page, you can redirect the post to a website that you own. This is a revolutionary idea that the 20-year-old Koby Conrad embraced. He owns an online shop called Hippies Hope Shop that sell unique items such as ring bracelets, crystal necklaces, hookahs, wood incense, and hippie clothing.

Because of consulting and mentoring, Conrad was introduced to the power of social media. He markets his items and receives traffic to his shop just by posting them on a Facebook page he runs called “The Hippy Bloggers.” With a Facebook page that has over 150,000 likes, he now runs a small business and taking on investors. Remarkably, this millennial is now living off Facebook!

3. GET PAID FOR ANSWERING FACEBOOK SURVEYS

Yes! You can get paid for your opinions that you are otherwise putting out there for free. If you are the type of person who is decisive and opinionated, try completing paid surveys offered by companies, universities, and other industries.

On the flip side, if you are the researcher, you can tap a massive focus group and reward them after by using SurveyMonkey and Facebook. Gather feedback from a wide range of people and enable them to share the survey easily by using SurveyMonkey’s Facebook Collector on your personal page or SurveyMonkey’s Web Link Collector on your fan page.

4. JOIN AFFILIATE PROGRAMS

Big companies and websites offer affiliate programs that pay you for your advertising efforts. Most of these affiliate programs provide you with marketing materials (e.g., link-backs or promotional banners) and pay you depending on how much traffic and sales you generate. In other words, this is a commission-based activity.

For instance, you can either take up Amazon or Qoo10’s affiliate program. Amazon offers a competitive affiliate program that pays you a percentage of sales after a person makes a purchase through your Facebook post. Simply follow these instructions.

While Qoo10 Curator Affiliate Program gives you 2% of the total sales amount if the item is sold due to your curating efforts. And if the item is sold due to your advertising efforts, you will receive additional rewards that are set by the sellers. The best thing is that you can join this program with no minimum traffic numbers and no initial fee! Simply share items, promotions, and others posts in social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter.
