Whatever your type of business, use social networking to market it.
According to Facebook, you can't set up a business account if you already have a personal one. But that is not going to stop you from setting up a business presence on the popular social networking platform -- your business' presence will just be a "page," which looks a lot like a personal profile. The benefit of a page is that it can be administered by whoever is given access by the original creator, without having to share passwords and usernames. Business pages are quite simple to set up, requiring a few short steps to get you up and running.

Instructions

    • 1
      Log into Facebook with your username and password.
    • 2
      Navigate to the Facebook "Create a Page" Web page. (see Resources). Click on "Local Business or Place" to begin setting up the page for a business. Note there are other options on this page, so if you are representing an artist, large company or a certain product, choose that selection.
    • 3
      Enter in a category for the business, its location and telephone number, and click the consent box to agree to the Facebook terms of service. Click "Get Started."
    • 4
      Add photos, enter information and invite friends to become fans by following the prompts on your new Facebook page.
