How to Make a Facebook Page that Stands Out

 Facebook is a widely used social media site that can be used for many purposes. There are almost 3 billion users monthly, with 1.9 billion of those users visiting daily. (https://backlinko.com/facebook-users). Whether it’s keeping up with your family members and friends or promoting yourself and your business, it’s very useful. Today I will be telling you all about how to make a Facebook page that will attract customers to your small (or large) business.

According to the book, The Essentials of Social Media Marketing, by Michelle Charello, the first step to making an attractive Facebook page is likely the most important. It is developing a profile and cover photo. These should convey either your mission statement or the logo of your company. The next step is to provide a call to action for the customers. Include an email, phone number, website or any other link to ensure that there is a way to contact you and see what your business has to offer. Along these same lines, you need to make sure to put a location and store hours, so customers know where to find your product/service. Finally, you want to include a description with essential information about your business. For example, we are a cupcake shop selling unique weekly flavors, located in Avon, Ohio. This just informs that customer what the business does.

In addition to setting up a page for your business, you may want to check out Facebook shops. This allows you to set up a free online store. You can link your Shopify or Etsy account for example, to Facebook shops. This allows customers to visit your shop directly and even purchase products without traveling to your physical store. Another thing to consider is to ensure that all hours and information about the business are up-to-date and the links work properly.

  1. Your insight on creating a Facebook is great! I have tried creating aesthetic social media profiles, but without any luck. No matter how hard I try, my profile never looks as good as I hope! I may try to create an online store on Facebook, as I am planning on branching out from my baking business and creating a clothing line.

  2. I agree with the best 1st step of creating a good Facebook page! First impressions are so important for you to decide whether keep looking at that page or not.
    I thought Facebook is only for older generation of people, but I learned it's not true.

My Birthday Weekend Recap

 My birthday was March 21, which was a Tuesday. The week prior was Spring break, so I decided to go to Kentucky for a weekend trip with my boyfriend! The first part of our trip was in Loretto, Kentucky. We drove about 6 hours, after waking up at 7:00 in the morning. We finally made it to our destination, where we were able to get a tour of Maker’s Mark bourbon distillery. As soon as we got there, I was in awe of how green the landscape was and how many cows and horses I saw grazing in the fields. I even saw baby lambs! Attached below is a wonderful view of the grounds. We got a full explanation of how bourbon is made. It starts with a mix of grains (corn, barley and rye). The mixture must be made up of at least 51% corn. This mixture of grains gets yeast and water added to it and then gets placed in a vat to let the yeast do its job (fermentation). Once it’s ready, it gets strained and then distilled (meaning it gets purified by heating and vaporizing). The next step varies between...

A Rundown of Accounting and My Future Career

I’m a senior accounting major and have not always liked accounting. I knew I wanted to major in something easy and that paid a lot, but didn’t do much research on what possible career paths could be from accounting or how many different opportunities were available to me as a business major. I originally thought accounting was keeping track of business transactions or doing taxes and after my first accounting class I almost changed my major. Accounting was not as easy as I expected and that discouraged me. However, I survived all four years of college and can safely say I have a better understanding of what I want to do for the rest of my life. I started off taking classes in college that taught me about software such as Quickbooks and SAP, managerial accounting (with an emphasis on manufacturing companies), financial accounting, auditing and most recently tax. My professors were very proactive in answering my questions and pushing me to get an internship to help narrow down what sec...

3 Places I Want to Visit

 I love traveling. I think it’s so fun to learn about how people live in different parts of the world and even other places in the US. Today, I’ll be telling you all about 3 places I want to visit in the near future. The first place I want to visit is Salzburg, Austria. This is number one on my bucket list. My grandma, who has since passed away grew up in this beautiful city and moved to America after WW2 because she fell in love with an American soldier from Kentucky. I’d like to visit the birthplace of Mozart, the Salzburg Cathedral, check out the coffee shops/boutiques and take pictures of the beautiful mountains. The picture I’ve attached below is the Bavarian mountains surrounding Salzburg. ( https://cdn.projectexpedition.com/photos/39563touractivitycsm_berchtesgardenwatzmannlockstein_7199d73c52_sized.jpg ) A fun fact about Salzburg (from my grandma), Hitler didn’t bomb this city during WW2 because he hid his prized paintings there! The second place I would like to visit is Sa...
