7 Tips on how to use Facebook for your retail chain

Facebook is a powerful advertising platform. It helps you engage with existing customers and reach new customers in ways that weren’t possible before. It has become the ultimate social marketing platform. But you are most likely not taking full advantage of the platform’s potential. We’ve listed 7 tips to be more professional and reach more people

Facebook has built a Business Manager for businesses like yours. It’s great for many reasons. You can easily manage your business, your locations, the people working in the team, ad accounts and more. The Business Manager lets you add people without having to add them as friends first and you can add/remove people as roles change. It makes your company the owner of the business on Facebook, not an individual Social Media Manager.

ProTip #2 - Set Up Locations

It’s likely your locations already exist on Facebook even if you haven’t created them. Anyone on Facebook can create new Facebook location pages when they want to check-in or tag a photo to the place they are. If you haven’t set up a location page the likelihood that someone has created a new one is very high. And even if you have set it up, some people create new pages either because they don’t find the official page or because they want to add their own flavor. Try to keep it clean and remove the unofficial pages as the information there is often misleading or insufficient.
