A business that does not have a Facebook page is only half-visible. With over 49 million supported pages and 9 million apps, advertising on Facebook seems like the intelligent thing to do. When Mark Zukerberg launched the site at Harvard University, he had visibility in mind. The ability to exist in one place while being in another. To share your thoughts and space with others in an interactive manner, no matter where in the world they might be. That was the idea.
This same power of unrestrained communication must be the chief benefit of having a business page on Facebook. Imagine the prospect of having 901 million users seeing your adverts every day, 3.2 Billion like and comments on a daily basis! The benefits of using Facebook are similar to those of having a website, but your business reach is improved drastically just by being social for business so to speak.

A perfect place to share information
Facebook offers many ways of sharing the same message; from your original post, likes and shares take your message to different place, and consumers that usually do not look at your products and services are now skimming through your marketing material. Furthermore, on the same site you are able to share the feel of your company. Through photos or videos of what your office looks like, what your staff get up to and your general everyday activity will help make up the prospective customer’s mind regarding your organization, what it is capable of.
No limits
There is no limit on the amount of information that you need to share and the frequency with which to share it. Global language teaching companies, for example, share photos and videos of their student’s experiences and daily activities in various classrooms around the world. The advertised space or environment entices many students and professionals to study abroad.
Improved Brand Awareness
You can increase your business’s profile on Facebook by encouraging existing and potential customers to click the ‘Like’ button on your Facebook page. This can be managed by a Graphic Design services Johannesburg/Pretoria company with SM advertising experience.

This helps to build awareness of your business, and to associate your friends with your brand.
