But if you’re new to Facebook, or aren’t sure how to share your page, it can be a bit confusing. Don’t worry though—we’ve got you covered! In this blog post, we’ll walk you through the different ways for how to share your business page on Facebook so you can start connecting better with your target audience.
Ready to get started? Let’s go!
What is a Facebook Business Page?
Facebook is a popular social network where big and small businesses have the option to create a free business account. There are close to 3 billion active monthly users on Facebook in the world as of July 2022 and this is why, as a business owner, you need to have an actual Facebook business page that is separate from your personal account (source).
With a Facebook Business Page, you can share your company’s contact information with your Facebook audience and engage in conversation about what matters most to them. Plus, you can use your business page to post updates or promotions that are sure to get people excited about your brand!
Before we move on to how to share your business page, we want to clarify that you cannot create a new Facebook Business Page without a personal profile. This is because a personal Facebook account serves as the admin of the page. However, you don’t have to worry about the responsibility of an administrator for your account too much because you can have as many page admins as you want.
A word of warning though, it’s not a good idea to use a fake Facebook profile because of the risk of having your business page deleted as per Facebook’s policy.
