- Assuming it's an RP FC, plug your FC IC! You don't have to try to get characters to join IC at random; that can of course be annoying to them and make you feel overbearing. Just have your character mention the FC that they run when it's relevant to the conversation!
- Make a site for your FC on Enjin and activate recruitment there. A lot of people browse Enjin for FC's.
- Make a thread for your FC in the appropriate section of the official FFXIV forums.
- There are several Facebook pages/groups for XIV and even the Balmung server in particular. You can advertise your FC there (depending on the respective page's rules).

- Be active, be involved, and don't be afraid to namedrop your FC. Being an FC leader trying to recruit is a lot like being a fulltime salesperson.
