This is THE best explanation of FB Business Manager I have ever seen! Thank you for putting this together. It makes it so much easier to explain to our clients.
Good effort with the vid but, honestly, FB / Meta Business / whatever it's called this week, has become so bloated, complicated and ever changing it is - to most people - utterly unusable. We've pulled all our resourced from FB other than a simple page - and use alternative funnels for ads. Best decision we ever made.
Oh you helped me out with a function of gaining acsess to personal ads accounts and those pixels as a partner. I know I didn't explain it right but it's been a long week of trying to get this to work and watching your video just fixed that. I even had a phone call with facebook and it didn't even get me close to getting it fixed.
This is great. Thanks. Have you ever encountered Facebook not allowing you to enter your phone number and telling you your legitimate mobile that they already have is not a valid phone number?
You are AWESOME! This is so spot on. I would love to see if you could get us approved. We have been working on this for over a year and we keep getting restricted and cant make it through any of these steps. We are a marketing agency and cant get anything approved.
Hey Andrew Hubbard. Please do upload video on weekly basis. All your previous videos were very informative and had so much value. We are missing your content very badly.
Hi, Can you make a video answering the following questions; 1. How to change or remove a primary page of a Facebook account? 2. What is the difference b/w a Facebook account, a business manager account, and an ad account? Please answer these questions. Thanks.
I dont know if I missed or not.... but a Facebook business manager can be used in Latin America (Chile, Argentina, Mexico) Central America (Honduras, Guatemala, Nicaragua etc) AND....... United States at the same time ? ASAP Please and thank you..
I think the Business Manager contains all the tools and the Assets while the Ad Manager is more about Ads and Cards and Payments. I think that if you share the Business Manager with someone but not the Ads Manager, that person only can post, they can't create an Ad and making the settings and using your VISA card for the payment, that person have to entry his own card and will promote from their Ad Account, and you don't want that.
The ad manager is inside the business manager. Think of the business manager like a drawer in your home, inside that drawer you may keep forks, spoons, knives, etc…the ads manager would be your fork or knife inside the drawer. Hope this helps
Hi Andrew - I am not able to complete the step: add my page into the Business Manager. Would it be possible to get a one on one consult? This has been an ongoing issue for several months now. I was so pleased with your video! But - hit a wall! Thank you so much!
Thank you for these information! I currently own a business manager but my page is being restricted. If I create a new business manager, but I use back my current ad account, do you think will it be ok? Or is it able to do that?
Dear Andrew, love your work. Question: I need to merge 2 pages and is telling me that the pages are niot under the same business manager. How can I do to solve this issue? Thank you in advance.
Very informative video! One question: What will happen to the linked instagram account if Business Manager gets banned? Can I link it to another business manager? Or the instagram account will be associated with the banned business manager forever?
I wish I had this video when I was first setting things up. I'm now stuck with an ad account in bad standing and don't know what to do. Any advice on how this can be fixed?
This is incredibly helpful, thank you!! I work for an agency - does that mean I should give employees of the agency access under "people" and not under "partners?" We have several employees so it makes me a bit nervous giving so many people access to the agency business manager.
Yep! Best practice would be to add your agency employees as "people" inside the business manager with appropriate access (definitely not admin!). And then you only assign them access to the accounts/pages etc. that they're working on. So they don't have access to the Business Manager per se, they only have access to the assets (ad accounts, pages...) that you assign to them. Partners are when you're getting access to a client's ad account and other assets. Once the client is added as a partner, you can then assign 'people' from your agency to those partner assets to work on them. Hope that helps :)
My question is the following if I add a new ad accounts into my business manager, would that ad account be able to run ads on a facebook page that already belongs to my business manager?
Hi Andrew, great tutorial, thank you! Just a quick question: When it comes to ADD ANOTHER ADMIN (in case something happens, as you rightly said), can I just add a different email address of myself, or it has to be another physical person altogether, i.e., my wife for example? Thanks!
Glad you found it helpful 🙂. It has to be another person because the email address has to be linked to a Facebook profile and you can only have one FB profile per person.
thank you so much this content. am just stuck in one step "adding ad account" as i add my ad account it says "Prepay accounts can't be added at this moment" can you please tell me what does this mean?
I'm a freelancer and don't have my own personal business website so when I set up the page I'm unable to add my web address but it won't let me leave without adding one. How can I get around this?
thanks Andrew, I need to know if I'm a freelancer and wanna manger clients' pages should I have a business account too? in this case how would I fill the information and having a business page known that meta/fb expect to deal with agency and not a person?
Can you help me???? I'm in one of those situations where I've been tasked to manage an account that's never been set up correctly. I tried following your tutorial but the first screen is completely different and I can't find "Business settings" Do you offer screen share zoom consultation?
This is wonderfully made. I hope all ads online courses are made like this. Straightforward. I have an issue. In my Business Settings , I have two Business Accounts. One is under my name (I don't recall making it), one is an account that my wife just made. How is that possible? Is it by default?
Andrew! I need some help. I am a freelancer managing multiple Facebook pages. We run out of some FB ads for a business, they paid the ad, but now they are asking me for the invoice or receipts. Because I did the action with my account, the invoice is with my name in it instead of the company´s name. I don't know if I missed a step by creating the ad, like setting up another account. Or why did this happened
What happens after I get employee access via adding my email id. Where should I go to and access their add account and pages. Is that will be available inside my personal profile?
Hi Andrew. What if, as a freelancer, I do not have a website which is a requirement for info in setting up a business account. Do I have to have a business account for my freelance activities to then add the pages of my clients to? Or could I set up business accounts on behalf of the clients and advertise from there?
How do I undo accounts that were set up incorrectly. I am trying to set up an account that I have full access to and it seems to be linked to a different account, but I cant figure it out.
Will my address show online anywhere if I enter my business address bc its a remote job i have to put my personal address in, just worried this will show or will it be hidden?
Hi Andrew! I work for a franchise company. I have a business manager account for the head office. Our franchise owners have their own page and ad account. Should I make sure they have all set up their own business manager account too? And I need access to their assets. Would I request access to their business manager account through partners or do I do that by requesting access in pages and ad accounts section? We have been having issues with ad accounts being disabled and it is because we are not set up properly so I need to make sure that going forward we do this in the right way. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Lisette
I already have two business manager accounts. I need a third account but it won't let me create more than 2. Is there a way to create a third or even more?
I've created a shop on Shopify and then created a Facebook profile as I don't have an account on it already. After profile and page creation I hoped on business manager creation and after that my account showed a restriction banner even though I submitted my ID verification as well. Why is it happening? how to fix it because I really need a business manager to run Facebook ads for my shop.
Can somebody please help me out, I type in my business name, my name, and my business email and when I hit submit I get an error message that says "Unable to create account, an error occurred while processing this request. Please try again later" I have tried this many times now and done a couple different things to troubleshoot and it still isn't working
I’m getting an error when trying to add page to my business account because it says I am Not an admin on the page … WHEN I AM! And even see myself under admins for the page. … tried everything PLEASE HELP!
@@blitzsistrash7752 yes actually, my problem was that I did not switch my Facebook account to a "professional account" once I did that everything was fine
Hi, Andrew. If I was to create a new business page in Facebook business manager, how would I stop Facebook from suggesting or notifying my network that I have created a new business page? I don’t want to alert my network
Hello, I have a question. Someone sent an email to us telling: Hello, We have visited your page it's perfect for run verified approved ads. Here we are offering you to promote your page growth and audience. You will be paid per week What should I do?
What happens if you already had an exciting Facebook business page? Is there a need to create a new account? I tried getting access to the page but it says I am not a admin.
Hi Andrew! Do you do any sort of consulting by chance? I started managing pages years ago before FB made any chances, and for some reason just got totally locked out of my personal account which is attached to my business manager and ad accounts for clients. This happened right before I was about to start re-adding myself the propper way. I have no access and am at a loss and am looking to hire someone who may be able to help me get things sorted out. thank you!
I’m having trouble with the first step, entering in the 3 lines of info and then clicking Submit. When I click submit it closes me out of the box completely and doesn’t take me to a new window. Do you know How can I get passed this?
i turned on my two step authentication now when I try to log in takes me to either google authenticator or sms- when i put my number it says invalid and when I do the scan QR code i get a code but the facebook won't allow me to enter the code as it keep continuing to load. i cannot access my business facebook pixel now.
When I try to add a page, my page, it says I provided the wrong user name and password. But they didn't even ask for a user and PW. I don't get it. What am I doing wrong?
Hey Andrew, this is great content, do you provide one on one coaching sessions? I would love some help in going all the setup over Zoom. I have sent you an email already. Let me know if that is possible please.
A purchase is a type of conversion. So “cost per conversion” could be anything, depending on what you’re optimising for. But cost per purchase is specifically the purchase conversion.
When I add an admin to secure my account, lets say I choose my wife, I enter her email and choose admin, but ON THE SECOND PAGE of the add admin process ; WHAT WOULD YOU SUGGEST TO SELECT to make sure that if someday my Facebook account gets blocked I gain full access of my business manager ?
Hi Andrew hoping you can help me with this issue: I have a business page for my nonprofit FB made me create a person page first, here's my issue, anytime I or my admins post our person name show up however when I check other account there is not a persons name on the post under the business name. I don't want to show our names on the post.
Hi! If I understand correctly, you’re referring to the “poster by …” under the page name on each post. If that’s the case there’s no need to worry - that’s only visible to admins of the page. Other people don’t see that :). To check, Get someone who’s not an admin to take a look for you
