Invisible/Active FAQ
You can find out more about this on the Invisible page> FB 101 video
You want to post at least once a day in 3 FB groups where your target audience hangs out. And we recommend posting at least once a day on your personal profile. Don't forget, everything you post should add value.
Before friending someone, make sure to have your VA, or yourself, stalk the person. Make sure to check when was his or her profile was created, if he/she has more than 50 mutual friends with you. Also check where they are located.
It wouldn’t hurt to check out his/ her personal feed to see what type of posts he is posting or what he is interested in.
Other things to look our for are:
- Not a lot of friends
- Not a picture of a person in the profile picture
- All their friends name are the same
- Not a lot of activity on the page
To help you start friending the right people, start friending people that you have at least 10 mutual friends with, and increase this number to 20, then 30, 40 , 50 extra
Facebook is constantly changing the rules and algorithms. If you notice FB keeps blocking you from posting a certain type of content then try using different, but similar words. If you are using swear words or more "risky" words, try replacing a letter with a "!" or "*" or another symbol that will still make sense. FB also doesn't like when you post loads of links to sites outside of FB, so it's important to keep that in mind as well.
Just make sure to have your personal profile as an admin in your Business page then update your personal profile bio with your business page, that way it would be easier for people to see your business.
On your personal account, go to About and edit details, scroll down to add links and add in your group or business page link.
You can watch the detailed instructions on the membership site under the Events tab, then Pre-launch recordings in episode 5
No. We do not suggest to schedule your post. FB algorithm changes from time to time. If FB saw you posting as a bot then they will not bump your post or have people see your post. This is where you need to have a VA to do this consistently.

Difference between Meetup Group and Facebook Group is that, firstly, they are hosted on different platforms. One is in Meetup and the other is in Facebook.
Lastly, Meetup groups are targeted within your chosen location (Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sydney etc) whilst Facebook Group is more global and open to anyone, anywhere.
Yes you will need both to promote your events and to ensure that your audience sees your content.
Firstly, make sure that you have been instructed to create your FB group by our M.A.F.I.A. coaches and team. If you are attending the Building Massive Impact workshop you are required to start your group following the instruction on the Launch series videos available to you 20 days prior the workshop.
Please watch this videos to know more about how to create your FB group.
We recommend doing a Meetup once a month. It is very important to have your next Meetup event date ready so that attendees to your event can RSVP on to the next one too.
If you would like to know more about Meetups, head on over to the membership site as you will find many resources in the VIP video library
YES! The whole point of running meetup is to make connections and gain more emails for your database. How you do that? Just refer to the Launch series videos> episode 4 on your membership site at 11:30 minutes it will tell you where and how we recommend asking for email and ph number to your audience
YES! Every time someone join your group they will be sent a welcome message via email. We teach you how to setup this message here
You can just take a look at it, search those groups first and then look up when their last event was. If they didn't have an event for several months you can probably assume that they are inactive. The next step for you would be to message the organiser and ask them if it's okay for you to share your event opportunity to the group or acquire the new group if it has no organiser :)
Reach out to the organiser of the group if you can cross promote your event to them and best if you can give away something for the group to make it more appealing (free tix to half day workshop, free pdf, free 1:1 etc) and once you have cross promoted your event to the group, you are now positioning yourself as a go to expert and you have the opportunity to get their emails.
Refrain from cold messaging members of other groups to join your group.
1. Click on your event on meetup.
2. Go to organiser tools.
3. Contact attendees. You will be prompt if you wanted to contact or email attendees that have not rsvp’d to your event and all those people who haven't rsvp’d to your meetup yet.
3. Tick what boxes depending on who you want to send it too.
Having multiple Meetup groups is great to promote your event in various places and have a broader reach, therefore we definitely recommend having a few groups. Just be mindful of the cost as the standard account only includes three groups. The Meetup Pro account allows you to have unlimited groups.
The idea is to have many groups, but redirect them to your main group. Once you have taken over a group feel free to email those people/members inside second group to invite them to your main group and inform them of the value on your main group.
You want to advertise your event in as many places as possible. The more you advertise, the more chances you have that people will see it and decide to come. Keep in mind, you don't have to advertise them all the same way - you can try saying it in a different way and find more examples of how your workshop will help your audience.
It depends.
Right now because of the world situation and COVID-19 we recommend to stick to online events when possible however you might be able to organise small local gathering face to face.
Your first meetup is your Meet and Greet and Ideally you want as many people as possible to join you so don't limit your reach and pick the option that is going to give you the bigger chance to get tons of people at your event!
There are multiple ways to grow your community, please have a look at some ideas below:
• Join other Facebook groups and start building trust
• Invite friends, start by inviting friends with lots of mutual friends. Then start inviting people who engage on your posts. Invite as many friends to you personal profile as possible.
• In your Personal profile, keep mentioning your Facebook group
• Ask people to join your Facebook group and join your training by using the M.A.F.I.A. strategies.
• Do lives inside your Facebook group
• Promote your program inside your group
If you want more information on how to grow your group, have a look at your Build Massive Impact manual.
From your live or from your call – ask your VA to transcribe it
• From transcription, they can create a blog
• They can create a little email
• They can create a couple of different post. (Value, CTA, Questions, Quotes, Announcement)
• From that we can create some potential post for our workshop
Take different parts of a post that did really well and expand on each point (ex. different pain points).
Transcribe every video you do and your VA can take content from it and repurpose different parts of it.
We recommend getting them to engage in the comments - you can do this by asking them to comment a certain word, for example, "comment PASSION if you want to know more". You then send a direct message to those who commented. We do not recommend adding the link directly to the post.
Watch BOOM Model module on the membership site.
Slack is used for our everyday communication tool. We use it to say good morning and when we leave for the day. You can create different channels to organise your chats and invite only the team members who need to see that info in it. It's also good to attach documents and tag team members when you want to speak to them directly.
