If you don’t already have one, the first step we like our valued partners to take is to create a Facebook Business Manager account. This article will run you through the steps involved in successfully creating your account.
Facebook Business Manager will give you more control over your brand’s online presence by collating all of your assets in one location. It also helps us to better understand your brand and what works for you, through data and insights.
