Managing your business page

It is important to note that a business page does not necessarily need daily management. It can be used as simple reinsurance element for your customers and partners. However, it will not have the same visibility as a personal page active. To maximize its impact, consider:

Occasionally share updates important.
Encourage your employees to connect to the page.
Integrate the page in your overall marketing strategy.
