Step 1: Sign up

  • Go to facebook.com/pages/create.
  • Fill out your business information through the left-hand side panel.
  • Name your page with your business name.
  • Select a category while naming your page.
  • Next, fill in the Description field.
  • Once you are happy with the description, click on Create Page.

Step 2: Upload Profile and Cover Pictures

Next, add amazing cover and profile pictures for your page. You need to make a strong first impression. Make sure you select pictures that are easily identifiable as part of your business and have to do with your brand.

First, upload your profile picture. This picture will be seen together with your business name when you interact with other Facebook users or when it shows up in search results.

Your brand logo is the surest way to go if you already have a well-recognized brand. A public figure, or a personal picture, will suffice.

If you are a local business, a well-photographed image of your signature product is a good idea. You must try making it so easy for followers or buying customers to find you.

Your profile photo should be 170x170 pixels. After you have chosen a great picture, click on Add Profile Picture.

It's now time to pick your Facebook cover photo, which should be the most amazing image on your Page. Let the picture communicate your business' personality and convey the relevance of your brand. Facebook recommends that you choose an image measuring 1640x856 pixels.

After you have selected the right image, click on Add Cover Photo.

Next, we talk about adding WhatsApp!

Hello Lily, just viewed your training, what a perfect time for you to post this. I recently posted activities on Facebook and LinkedIn thru a plug-in, but they went under my personal profile, not what I wanted to accomplish. Building a Facebook Business page is just the exposure needed, I hope. Have a great rest of your weekend, Lily.

H8 Roger,

I did the same thing and realised I needed to fix it too.
It really is quite simple creating a business page, it remembering all their rules that gets tricky. 😆

Warm regards,
Lily 😁🎶

Thanks for sharing this training on how to set up FB business page. I always get confused by fan page or business page, not sure which one offers the best for attracting leads.
