Who Can Make Money With Facebook?
Anybody can make money with Facebook! Like anything in life, you need to be persistent and not give up if your campaign doesn’t work the first time.
For most of these suggestions, the quality of your Facebook profile is going to be your best way of making a first impression. There are lots of spammers on Facebook that promise the world and never follow through. You don’t want to be one of these people as your chances of making money will be slim.
Make sure your Facebook profile makes it look like you’re a real person. Put a picture of yourself or your business emblem in your profile picture or cover photo section.
Also, make sure you list the correct city you live in so people don’t think you accidentally post in the wrong group. Finally, include contact information and a website link if you own a local or online business.
Depending on how you are planning to make money with Facebook, you should also consider creating a separate account. This way, you can keep your personal and business activity separate. If you want to keep everything under one account, that’s okay too if you want you’re an individual seller trying a Craigslist alternative.
What Can You Sell on Facebook?
Almost anything can be sold on Facebook. Most people use Facebook to sell their used cars, secondhand items, handmade items, ebooks, and to advertise their weekend garage sale.
A few things you can’t sell on Facebook include:
- Alcohol
- Illicit drugs
- Tobacco
- Firearms
- Animals
- Real money gambling products
- Certain healthcare products

How to Make Money With Facebook
Once your profile is ready to go, you’re now ready to start making money. In many cases, you’re going to be selling items or services you already own. But, we’ll also include a few other suggestions too.
1. Write a Facebook Post
If you just want to sell to your current Facebook friends, you can write a post. In the “What’s on your mind?” field, start typing what you want to sell. You can also include a picture of the item too. Posts only share with your friends, but they can be seen by others you don’t know if your friend shares the post.
Maybe you’ve see your own friend circles selling cars, real estate, and other possessions instead of going through the hassle of selling to a stranger. If you’ve never sold anything on Facebook you can use their posts as an example to model your post.
