Permeation is another ideological trait of Fabianism.<ref>{{cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=a56hc3uASjoC&pg=PA114|last1=Miller|first1=Elizabeth|title=Slow Print: Literary Radicalism and Late Victorian Print Culture|date=2013|publisher=[[Stanford University]] Press|pages=113–115}}</ref> Margaret Cole, one of the Society's historians, referred to this as "honeycombing".<ref>The Story of Fabian Socialism, p. 85</ref> Cole explains that a combination of tracts, lectures, key groups and persons, who can be set in a position to either take direct action or directly influence others, is key to the success of the group's ideals. Key persons do not need to be Fabians themselves, and many times it is preferred that they are not members. Just so long as the sought after prize is attained. In this way, the person who represents the center of the honeycomb is surrounded by only the ideals that the Fabian want them to be surrounded with, which ensures the desired outcome.

The Society's first historian, E. R. Pease explained permeation by quoting Ernest Barker's book "''Political Thought in England from Herbert Spencer to the Present Day''"
