Facebook wants to amass 1 billion meaningful group members. While it has more than a billion users using groups, “meaningful” groups are communities that become a critical part of a user’s experience. In concert with its goal, Facebook makes frequent enhancements to group and admin tools. Arguably, groups are one of the main reasons users return daily.

My group grew to 40,000+ members, and it enabled me to generate passive income and drive traffic to my website. I was also able to build relationships with like-minded individuals. I liked owning my group so much that I purchased two more and grew my members under management (MUM) to 125,000. The other two groups focused on marketing and ecommerce. My goal was to reach half a million MUM.
