We all have heard that Facebook Groups can be an easy way to create authentic connections with clients and expand your reach. 

But are Facebook groups still effective? Is everyone “over” them? Do they really work? 

I’ve invited my long-time friend and business coach Kathleen LeGrys on the podcast to share how she’s mastered the ability to connect Facebook Groups with emails, Facebook Lives and other tools to increase the energy and interaction of the group. 

It appears that YES, they’re still effective…if you use them in certain ways.
