Very often people who played the main role in such videos make a quick demonstration of the product (functions and main advantages). People has a better perception from video content than any other kind. Of course, keep in mind that you should mix all sorts of content.

Homepage advertisements

With this type of promotion, clients are able to visit the company`s Facebook profile. They can be sure that everything is fair and they won`t lost their money. There is also an ability to look through all available products.

These two variants of advertising could give you a real advantage in front of other business accounts. Just find the right mix between them and start your Facebook advertising campaign.

It`s an important part of your advertising plan because every advertising post needs payment. You should think about your budget before creating your business page, because it`s a foundation of your campaign. If you only begin your social media activity, start with a lower budget and then grow it.
