How to create an account on Facebook Business Manager: A Step-by-Step Guide

This guide will walk you through the whole process of creating an account to putting your first ad.
Business Managerrrr acts as a one-stop shop to handle business tools, business assets, and employee access to these things. It's essentially the hub for all of the Facebook content and marketing campaigns. It's also where you can manage links to additional services including your Instagram account and product catalogs for different people.
These are some of the most important features:
- It's a one-stop place for tracking Facebook advertising, with comprehensive updates about how they're doing.
- It helps you to grant access to the sites and advertising to advertisers, associates, and agencies without turning over control of the properties.
How to Get Started
1. Create a Facebook Business Manager account
The first step in getting Business Manager up and running is to have an account. To prove your identity, you'll need to use a personal Facebook profile,
1. Go to business.Facebook.com and click on Create Account button.

2. Click Next after entering your company name, name, and the business email address you want to use to handle your Facebook Business Manager account.

3. Enter your company's information, including its location, phone number, and website. You must also decide when this Business Manager account would be used to support your own company or to offer services to other companies (like an agency). Select Submit when you're done.

4. Now check your email inbox an email with the subject line "Confirm your business email" in your inbox. Select Confirm Now in the message.
2. Add your Facebook business page(s)
You have a few different options in this phase. You may either incorporate a current Facebook company page or start one from scratch. You may require entry to someone else's Facebook profile if you run Facebook accounts for customers or other companies.
To add your Facebook page to Facebook Business Manager:
1. From the Business Manager dashboard, click Add Page.Then, in the pop-up box, click Add Page again.


2. In the text box, type the name of your Facebook company page. Your company's page name should appear below and you can simply click on it. Then choose Add Page from the drop-down menu. Your request would be granted immediately if you have administrator access to the website you're attempting to add. (Be aware that you must create you Facebook Page before.)

3. Add your Facebook ad account(s)
Keep in mind that if you've added your ad account to Facebook Business Manager, you cannot delete it, which is why it's important to only include accounts that you hold. Instead, hit Request Permission to gain access to a client account.
If you already advertise on Facebook, you may link your current account as follows:
- Press Add Ad Account from the Business Manager dashboard, then Add Ad Account again, and then enter the ad account ID, which can be found in Ads Manager.
If you do not already have a Facebook advertising account, follow these steps to create one.
1. From the Business Manager dashboard, click Add Ad Account, then Create Account.

2. Indicate that the ad account is for your own business, and then press Create.

Each business will start with a single ad account. If you've been investing money in your first ad account, you'll be allowed to select more accounts depending on your ads spend. There is no way to submit additional advertising accounts.
4. Add people to help you manage your Facebook assets (Optional)
Managing your Facebook ads may be a huge undertaking, and you do not want to do it alone. Facebook Business Manager enables you to add staff members, allowing you to manage your Facebook business profile and marketing ads for a large team. This is how to organize the squad.
1. From your Business Manager dashboard, click Add people.
2. Type the company email address of a team member you want to include in the pop-up window. This may be in the form of employers, independent workers, or corporate associates. Rather than an organisation or another organization, you are clearly adding individuals in this process (you can do that in the next step).
You may grant these individuals restricted account access (select Employee access) or complete account access (select Full access) (choose Admin access). You will get more precise in the subsequent step. Ensure that you add individuals using their job email addresses. After that, choose Next.

Select Pages from the left menu. Select the sites on which you want this team member to function. Utilize the toggle switches to customize an individual's entry.

5. Select Add More People to select more team members. Until full, click Invite. Now you must await each individual's acceptance of your invitation to join your Facebook Business Manager team.
They will each get an email with details regarding the access you've granted them and a connection to get started, so it's a smart idea to send them a personal note or notify them specifically that you're granting them this access and that they can anticipate the automatic email with the connection.
From your dashboard, you will view all of your pending requests and delete them at any time for people who have not replied. If an individual with access leaves the organization or changes roles, you may withdraw their permissions. Here is how:
1. From your Business Manager dashboard, click Business Settings at the top right.
In the left menu, click People.
2. Click on the name of the appropriate person.
3.To remove them from your team, click Remove. Or, hover over the name of an individual asset and click the trash can icon to remove it.
5 Connect your business partners or ad agency(Optional)
1. From your Business Manager dashboard, click Business Settings at the top right.
2. In the left menu, click Partners. Under Partner to share assets with, click Add.
1. From your Business Manager dashboard, click Business Settings at the top right.
2. In the left menu, click Partners. Under Partner to share assets with, click Add.

3. Your business associate must also have a Business Manager ID. Solicit it from them. They can access it through Business Settings>Business Info in their own Business Manager. Add the ID by entering it.
The business you've introduced will handle permissions for members of their own staff directly from their Facebook Business Manager account. That means you won't have to think about issuing and handling permits for all the different employees at your organization or partner company who service your account, only the partner company itself.
6. Add your Instagram account
Once your Facebook assets are configured, you can also add your Instagram account to Facebook Business Manager.
1. At the top right of the Business Manager dashboard, click on Business Settings.
2. Select Instagram Accounts in the left column, then click Add. Enter your Instagram username details in the pop-up box and click Log In.

2. Indicate that the ad account is for your own business, and then press Create.

Each business will start with a single ad account. If you've been investing money in your first ad account, you'll be allowed to select more accounts depending on your ads spend. There is no way to submit additional advertising accounts.
7. Boost your account's protection
One of the benefits of utilizing Facebook Company Manager is the added protection it provides for the business's investments.
1. From the Business Manager dashboard, click Business Settings.
