Everything Facebook

You’ve always dreamed of being your own boss. You are willing to put in the time and effort necessary to succeed. You know the importance of getting your business “out there.” And you are working hard to do so. We know that, and it’s why we wanted to share this with you.

As you plan your marketing strategy, here’s a question that needs to be addressed: How effectively do you use Facebook?

Whether you enjoy scrolling the Facebook news feed (or even have time to do so) or not, how you answer this question can make or break your business. According to Statista, as of the second quarter of 2016, Facebook had over 1.71 billion monthly active users. With an estimated 7.4 billion people in the world, that means 23% of the world (and an estimated 50.3% of Americans!) get on Facebook each month. With those numbers in mind, Facebook should be a key part of your marketing plan.

When you use Facebook for business, remember that it is about much more than funny cat videos and sharing the latest news stories. Facebook presents the opportunity for you to connect with millions of potential customers. You want to do it right. Luckily, Facebook has an extensive number of helpful tutorials and videos to help business owners get the most out of the world’s number one social platform.
