Step 1: Set Up a Personal Facebook Account
In order to create a corporate Facebook account, you first need to have a personal Facebook account. If you don’t already have one, you can easily sign up for free on the Facebook website or mobile app. This personal account will serve as the administrator or manager of your corporate account.
Step 2: Access Facebook Business Manager
Once you have a personal Facebook account, go to the Facebook Business Manager website and log in using your personal account credentials. If you are not automatically directed to the Business Manager, you can find it by clicking on the drop-down arrow in the top-right corner of Facebook and selecting “Business Manager” from the menu.
Step 3: Create a New Business Account
Within the Business Manager, click on the “Create Account” button and select “Business Account.” Fill in the required information, including your business name, your own name, and your business email. You can also assign pages or ad accounts to this business account if you already have them.
Step 4: Add Your Facebook Page
To link your corporate Facebook account to a Facebook page, click on the “Business Settings” tab in the Business Manager and select “Pages” from the left-hand side column. Now click on the “+ Add” button to add your Facebook page. You can create a new page or request access to an existing page if someone else manages it.
Step 5: Assign Account Roles
As a business, you may want to assign different roles to individuals who will manage your corporate account. To assign account roles, click on the “Business Settings” tab in the Business Manager and select “People” from the left-hand side column. Here you can invite team members and assign roles such as admin, editor, analyst, or advertiser based on their responsibilities.
Step 6: Verify your Business Account
Verifying your business account adds an extra layer of authenticity to your corporate Facebook account. To verify, click on the “Business Settings” tab in the Business Manager and select “Security Center” from the left-hand side column. Follow the prompts and provide the necessary documentation to complete the verification process.
Step 7: Customize your Corporate Facebook Account
Now that your corporate Facebook account is set up, it’s time to customize it to align with your brand. Add a profile picture, cover photo, and fill out the about section with relevant details about your company. Consider adding links to your website, contact information, and any other essential information that will help visitors understand your business.
Step 8: Start Engaging with your Audience
Congratulations! Your corporate Facebook account is now ready to go. Begin posting relevant content, interacting with your audience through comments and direct messages, and utilizing Facebook’s advertising tools to reach a wider audience. Remember to regularly monitor your page and respond to inquiries or feedback promptly.
- Ensure your posts reflect your brand personality

- Measure and analyze your page’s performance using Facebook Insights
By following these steps, you can create a strong corporate Facebook account and tap into the vast opportunities Facebook offers. Establishing a presence on this social media giant will help your business connect, engage, and grow in the digital landscape.
