Facebook Page Guide

The business has a dedicated Page, correct access, clear contact paths, recent proof, useful posts, and social messages that can be followed up instead of buried.

Practical starting point

Create a Facebook Page, not a second personal profile

A business should have a dedicated Facebook Page. Your real personal profile creates and manages that Page behind the scenes. Do not create a fake personal profile named after the business. A personal profile is for an individual and misses Page tools such as business details, Page access, action buttons, insights, and business integrations.

1Start from your real Facebook profile

Sign in to the authentic profile of the owner or approved manager. From that profile, go to facebook.com/pages/create. The profile manages access, but the public business presence is the Page.

2Create the business Page

Use the real business name, the closest category, and a short description that says what the business does and where it works.

3Add the trust basics

Upload the correct logo and cover image. Add the phone, website, service area, hours, services, email, and any location details customers need.

4Set one useful action button

Choose the clearest next step, such as Call Now, Get Quote, Book Now, or Send Message. Test it from a phone after saving it.

Quick answer: Use a dedicated Facebook Page for the business, created and managed through the owner's real personal profile. Do not create a second personal profile that pretends to be the business.

What to know first

Facebook treats personal profiles and business Pages as different things. A real person uses an authentic profile to create and manage the Page, while the public Page represents the business and provides the proper business tools.

Keep this checklist nearby

  • Create a real business Page from an authentic personal profile
  • Use consistent branding, logo, cover image, and service description
  • Set the right contact or booking button
  • Give staff Page access instead of sharing passwords
  • Post customer proof and useful education
  • Route inquiries into the CRM where possible
Step by step

Put this into practice.

Use the steps in order the first time. Once the process is working, keep the parts your business actually needs and review them on a simple schedule.

1

Start from your real Facebook profile

Sign in to the authentic profile of the owner or approved manager. From that profile, go to facebook.com/pages/create. The profile manages access, but the public business presence is the Page.

2

Create the business Page

Use the real business name, the closest category, and a short description that says what the business does and where it works.

3

Add the trust basics

Upload the correct logo and cover image. Add the phone, website, service area, hours, services, email, and any location details customers need.

4

Set one useful action button

Choose the clearest next step, such as Call Now, Get Quote, Book Now, or Send Message. Test it from a phone after saving it.

5

Give access without sharing passwords

Use Facebook Page access or Meta Business tools to add approved staff and partners. Each person should use their own real profile and receive only the access they need.

6

Publish proof and useful answers

Post real jobs, before-and-after work, customer feedback, service explanations, seasonal reminders, and clear offers. Avoid turning every post into a sales pitch.

7

Connect messages to follow-up

Check Page messages consistently or route them into the LMS conversations process. A Facebook inquiry should get the same clear next step as a call or website form.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Creating a fake personal profile for the business
  • Sharing one personal login with staff or vendors
  • Only posting promotions
  • Letting messages sit unanswered
  • Using outdated service details
  • Treating Facebook messages as separate from the sales process

What to measure

  • Page completeness
  • Page access and ownership
  • Message response time
  • Post consistency
  • Clicks to website or booking
  • Customer proof posts

When this is working

The business has a dedicated Page, correct access, clear contact paths, recent proof, useful posts, and social messages that can be followed up instead of buried.
