The Four Benefits of Building a Facebook Business Profile

Social Media images and texts

Facebook is the most populated social media platform to date. As its popularity grows and grows, it becomes an even more important tool for businesses. Bearing that in mind, here are the main benefits of Facebook for business:

Incredible Exposure

Perhaps the biggest benefit of a Facebook business profile is that your company now gets more exposure. Remember, Facebook is highly populated, with around one billion users on there, and millions of people using it every day. This means there’s the potential to expose your business to millions of people that haven’t heard of it before. As a result, you can expand your customer base by attracting new people to your company. It’s by far and away the easiest and most effective way of increasing brand exposure.

Find Your Target Audience

Not only does a Facebook business profile help you increase exposure and find new customers, but it also lets you find your target audience. Let’s be frank, the chances of every Facebook user finding your profile and following it are very slim. Instead, everyone that’s interested in your profile will be from your target audience. Why else would someone click on your business profile? The audience you attract will be the exact audience you want to attract. This is key for business, as it makes converting them into customers a whole lot easier.

Reduce Marketing Costs

The beauty of Facebook is that you can use it to market your business for free. Sure, there are ways you can pay for Facebook Ads, but a lot of your marketing efforts can be done without spending a penny. It’s totally free to signup and create a Facebook business profile. It’s free to post content and get people interested in your profile on this platform too. For small businesses with tiny marketing budgets, it’s such a cost-effective way of getting your company seen by as many people as possible.

Drive Traffic To Your Website

Every business should know that a website is the centerpiece of all their digital marketing efforts. Everything you do should be geared to getting people to visit your site. With a Facebook business profile, you have a platform to drive unprecedented levels of web traffic to your business website. It’s simply one of the best methods for increasing those numbers and improve your website statistics. Clever business owners will post links to their website or links to blog posts on their site that people can read via Facebook. Did you know that recent studies showed internet users are now finding websites via Facebook more than via search engines? This proves how effective it can be for increasing web traffic, which is great for your business.

There you have it, four benefits of a Facebook business profile. If your company is looking for a cheap and effective marketing method, then Facebook is a splendid idea. You won’t find another social media platform with as much reach as this one has. Give your business a far better online presence by creating a Facebook business profile today.

As always Allshouse Designs is here to help your business with a strong online Presence. Request a call back today!

September Update for Allshouse Designs

Hello everyone and I hope your week is going well. As far as updates go for Allshouse Designs. Matt and I have signed 4 new clients in the last couple weeks. AWESOME! I urge you to go to our update video and look into the description of the video for client’s website addresses. They are great people and offer great services.

Matt is working on improving our videos and creating more of them in his studio. I don’t think I’ll be in the next one, but that may change. I hope the next one we upload is going to be episode 2 for our tools and tips for marketing section.

I have been working on transferring our website into BootStrap. This will make our website faster and will be easier on the responsiveness for different type of devices. Of course, I will not get to this until our new clients are serviced.

If you watched the video, yes we are planning to buy a 360 camera. Whether you like it or not. Video technology is going toward VR and we want to be on the for front of this up and coming technology.

Seattle Holistic Doula

Seattle Holistic Doula is a new client of ours and they offer support to expecting people and their partners throughout pregnancy, birth, the newborn period and beyond in a holistic way.  Doulas are an important to the birthing process and in the nut shell can improve your plan for a natural birth with a midwife.

Anyways, Back to where Allshouse Designs comes in. I have just started working on the Seattle Holistic Doula’s website. The cool thing about our website management service is that we work with your current website. There is no need to change servers or URL ownership. Now every website is different and there may be a need to have the website live on our servers, but really we try to avoid it. Even if our servers are superfast. Once we have control over your web site we will make decisions to improve the site on a monthly basis. It is important that a website provides fresh content and is constantly being adjusted for new technology. With that said, we work with you on a monthly basis to improve your website’s ranking and feel. As far has Seattle Holistic Doula goes, we have just started to work with Jenne Alderks this month. I am very excited to improve her website and keep it updated as much as possible. Jenne has been a Doula for the past 5 years and has experienced more then 70 births. I highly recommend a Doula for your birthing experience.
