How to create a Facebook Business Manager Account.

We get asked this question all the time so wanted to explain the best way to set up your Facebook Business Manager Account and take control of your social accounts.

Facebook Business Manager is a powerful tool for businesses that need multiple people involved in managing Facebook and Instagram, have multiple assets to manage, or want deeper insights into audiences and targeting. This quick guide will help you and your team get up and running quickly.

1. Go to Facebook Business Suite: Start by visiting the Facebook Business Suite site. You can find this by typing “Facebook Business Suite” into your search engine or going directly to business.facebook.com.

2. Create an Account: Click on the “Create Account” button. You’ll be asked to log in using your personal Facebook account credentials. Remember, your personal information will not be visible on your Business Manager account.

3. Enter Your Business Details: After logging in, you will be prompted to enter information about your business. This includes your business name (which should match the name people use to look up your business), your name, and your business email address.

4. Set Up Your Business Profile: Once your account is created, you’ll need to add all the relevant details about your business. This includes your business’s physical address, website, and phone number.

5. Add Your Facebook Business Pages: If you already have a business page on Facebook, you can add it to your Business Manager account. If not, you can create a new page directly from the Business Manager setup.

6. Add People or Partners to Manage Your Account: You can add colleagues or partners to help manage your account. Under the “Users” section, click on “People” and then on “Add.” Enter their email addresses and choose the level of access or permissions you want to grant them.

7. Link Your Ad Account: If you plan to run ads, link your ad account to your Business Manager. If you don’t have an ad account yet, you can create one in this step. Go to the “Accounts” tab, click on “Ad Accounts,” then either “Add” an existing ad account or “Create a new ad account.”

8. Add Other Assets: You can also link other assets such as Instagram accounts, product catalogs, and more. This is found under the “Accounts” section as well.

9. Configure Business Settings: Take some time to explore the business settings. Here, you can configure additional settings like payment methods for advertisements, set up more advanced features like pixel tracking for website analytics, and manage all your linked assets.

10. Review and Start Using: Review all the information and settings to ensure everything is set up correctly. You can now start using Facebook Business Manager to manage your pages, ad accounts, and other business-related activities on Facebook more efficiently.

Make sure to keep your Business Manager information up to date and review your security settings regularly to protect your business’s Facebook presence.
