STEP#1: Create a facebook page not a personal profile

First of all… all you have to do is to create a facebook business page. A personal profile is not that beneficial than a business page because there are many features on a facebook page that you can use to gear up your product. The page name represents your brand. Pages have unique tools for organizations, companies and brands. These tools help you to connect with your customers easily.

Your profile photo or cover should be the logo of your product while the cover photo represents your items. That cover photo should be unique and captivating.

It represents a different story that showcases your products. It must be interesting and grabs the attention of customers. So, it means the cover photo is really important because whenever someone opens up your page, the cover photo is the first thing that impresses or depresses a customer.

 

STEP#3: Use the “ABOUT” section appropriately

“About” section is the first thing that people read after opening your page. This is located right below your company logo. This is the best chance for you to tell the people about what your business exactly does.

The information you put here must be informative and convincing. Interesting and unique details are included in that about section. Try to keep the information informal and friendly. Informal tone works best on Facebook.

 

STEP#4: Post meaningful information on your wall

The person who liked your page will be able to see your post on their newsfeed. So always keep in mind that you post useful information for your fans. Each post from your page provides your fans with some valuable guideline. Doesn’t post the same thing every day… try to post new and interesting stuff.

1. Post about your products

2. Post about the discount offers

3. Post about the usefulness of your products

4. Post videos that help customers to use your product

 

STEP#5: Involve your fans by asking questions

Be honest with your work and don’t deceive others. Whatever you share must be real so that no one can point you.
