Some things to consider when you are setting up your Facebook for Business:
- You need to set up a Page (not a personal Timeline) for a business
- Facebook Likes are not the most important measure of the success of your Facebook Page, interactions are
- Remember that, depending on how you deal with it, negative comments on your Page are not the worst thing that could happen – it is better to leave them and deal with them rather than delete or monitor them
- Vary your content – don’t just advertise, interact with customers and add value to them and your services
