In this video, we will be creating a Facebook Business Account. It will be the primary account where you’ll be creating and running Facebook ads. There is the other option to run ads through your personal account, but we do not recommend it. Why? Because you can only use that account for one business or brand. Let’s say I’ve built and scaled up Brewed Treats to a super successful store. And one day, I decide I want to move on and build a new store in a different niche. We’ll use the unicorn niche for example. Since my personal ad account is already associated with Brewed Treats, I wouldn’t be able to use it to run ads to my new store. If you’re looking to scale your niche store to over a million dollars, you’re going to need more than one niche store. And in that case, you’re going to need a Facebook business account. So here are the steps to create one. *Go to the URL http://business.facebook.com* You can type this link into your browser or easily launch it by clicking the button below. ** Create a Facebook Business Account *** Step #1: Name Your Business Manager 1.
