There’s no better time to use Facebook to market your business. With billions of users monthly (and still growing) and a revamped paid advertising platform, you simply can’t ignore it.
We recognize that marketing your business can be overwhelming too. Especially if you’re a startup or solo-preneur trying to run your business without any help. I have prepared a list of handy Facebook features that are not that popular so you can save a lot of time, energy, and money!
The Migration Secret
Did you start building your business using your personal connections? Are you starting to feel a bit icky that your friends are getting annoyed by your business posts? There’s a simple solution for this. You can convert your personal profile into a business page with a click. It’s called migration and it happens really fast. You will have a business page done in seconds with your identity- profile picture, cover picture and your personal information. You will be able to separate your personal connections from your business connections and it will give you a huge relief. Check it out here.
For those of you who have opened multiple business pages and want to focus on just one, here’s what you can do. Merge the page that has the lower amount of likes into the one that has the biggest audience. Click here to do it.
The Facebook Likes Secret.
This feature is not new but there are so many people that don’t know that they can invite people who like their posts to like their page. To access this feature, simply click on the number of likes under any post on your page. You’ll automatically get a list of every user who has liked the post, and, on the right of each user’s name, you will see a button that shows if the user has already liked your page. If a user has not done so yet, you can invite him/her with just one click of a button!
This feature is only available for business pages (fan pages). If you have questions – reach out to our Free Community.

The Facebook Group Automation Secret
Facebook Group’s automation. You don’t have to post daily to build your audience. And I’m not talking about Hootsuite. You don’t need Hootsuite anymore unless you are a social media agency. 
The Facebook Bot Secret
You might be chatting with a robot and you don’t know it. There is a free feature where you can program your conversations. This feature is becoming more advanced, as it keeps integrating artificial intelligence. Is free. It’s called Chatfuel. Check it out.
The Geo-Targeting Secret
Geo-targeting or geotargeting refers to the practice of delivering different content or advertisements to a website user based on his or her geographic location. Geo-targeting can be used to target local customers.
Facebook Marketplace uses geo-targeting. You can list your products to people near you. This is a gem for realtors. You can list your properties also. It reaches your local market tremendously fast and you generate leads at the palm of your hand. Bingo! (We have a Facebook crash course for realtors where we teach how to leverage your social media to build your market. Check it out)
