Thanks a lot, new version from business manager, I have two questions, 1.When you said create a page did you meant a Facebook page, a new page in the Facebook business manager? 2.Two pages showed up automatically when I set up the business manager account,, my Instagram business page, and the Facebook business page, which one should I create an ad with?

[@StewartGauld]

Hi mate! Your welcome! 1. Yes business page. 2. You will create an add through FB. Your business page will be used to advertise on Facebook and IG account for IG. Make sure you connect/link both your IG and FB page together.

I have a doubt let's say I got a client for fb ads? I need to access their ads manager so I can run ads for them. I knew those two ways 1. Partner access 2. Employee access the mail ID one. My question is I'm not a freelancer yet so I didn't have any website to do business manager verification. How can I get the access I mean I have create a business manager and from there requesting access or the employee access via email they provide the method 2 ( does this also requires business manger for ourselves ? ). And what about the business manager verification problem. Can u shed some light I've been following u quite a while really appreciate your work to be honest you have every tutorial I need.

Hello Stuart, Thank you for this tutorial and every video you make I did not understand what it is syndeo Media ? is it your page or your account. what should I write there if it's my personal Facebook account? I have my personal account with no page for my social media management that I want to use to manage other pages for clients but they already have a meta business suite for their pages. So how can I manage other business pages using my personal account? what do I need to do?

[@StewartGauld]

Hey mate, That is the name of our business (therefore our business manager & page). You can manager multiple Business pages and ad accounts under you business manager.

[@thebumshow]

Hi Stew, I created an account and then it decided to block me because apparently I broke some rule? Yet I have no idea what. I tried to appeal it but that didnt work. So I made a new facebook account to try again but the blue button to "create account" on the business manager page isnt even there... I am going nuts here.

[@StewartGauld]

Hi mate, That is unfortunate, however it happens! Try login in from your FB account and create a new account. It might pay to read through FB policies. Also, is your FB profile new? This can often be the case.

[@thebumshow]

@@StewartGauld I think I did it in the end. So much struggle but now I just have to wait for facebook to verify me. Thanks for your reply!

[@zeljkoproject6789]

Dear Stewart, first of all, thank you so much for these amazing tutorials :) I read through the comments below this video and I got a lot of useful information. Although, I still have some doubts. If I understood correctly, In the situation when having multiple businesses (for example primary is a Marketing agency and the side business is a Yoga studio) the best practice is to have just one Meta Business account (for example Name of that Marketing agency) and under them to manage Facebook Pages, Instagram accounts and Ad Accounts related to the primary and side business, rather then to have a two separated Business accounts? If this above is correct, when creating an Ad account for the side business (Yoga studio) is it better to choose that ad account will be used for “My Business” or to choose “Another business or client” since it’s the business completely opposite to the primary one which is a Marketing agency? Hope I explained it well :)

[@StewartGauld]

Yes that is correct. Choose another business.

[@ashleysmalley7150]

My work manages their Facebook page by sending invites to personal profiles is this the right way to go? I can see some posts have been boosted, but it’s on their personal ad account if that makes sense? There is nothing in place to manage one payment method and security. Thoughts?

Hi Stewart, I've created a business account, I go to Business Settings, added our page and it says Page Admin needs to approve my request and has been notified via email even though I am the page admin of our page and I still haven't received the email... Is it normal for the email to not arrive instantly? It's weird that it didn't get approval automatically like yours did. Am I missing something? Thanks heaps.

[@suechambersoncue7855]

Hmmm I wonder if it's got anything to do with the page still appearing as a "Classic" FB Page? I've successfully added another Facebook Page we have which is "Updated" to a new Facebook Page.

[@StewartGauld]

Hi Sue, That is strange. Either you're not the admin of that page or you might need to update your page.

Hey so I just tried to create a fb bm with a new account and it wasn't creating at first and after sometime it immediately got banned. I think you can't create bms with new fb accounts. Please can you check and tell

[@StewartGauld]

Hi mate! Yes, you cannot straight away. Facebook doesn't want spam accounts. Make sure you use a strong standing personal account.

@@StewartGauld so what is the solution? Using old fb accounts to make new bms? If so how old should it be,m

Can each person you add create an ad account?

[@StewartGauld]

If you give them the right permissions. Yes.

[@floatingodds]

@@StewartGauld thank you. So it would make sense to have a couple people with ad accounts incase one gets shutdown. The data from the campaigns are stored at the BM level?

Hey Thanks for this . I run a free popular website for doctors and trainee doctors. Should I create a forum on my site for them using buddy boss for instance or a Facebook group? The problem with website forum is getting people to log in. People log into their facebooks all the time. But the problem with Facebook is that I need to categorise posts which is better in forums. And people need to be able to search and read old posts. In Facebook it’s often the current post that is the most important. But in my case like for the trainees past posts will be important for example. And I need to create several groups. Some might be members of more than one. For example a trainee group and a maternity group. Or trainees who graduated abroad. Or trainees taking the RCA exam or the CSA exam. Do u see what I mean. Will I need to create a face book group for each of these? Some trainees will belong to more than one group. What would u do.

[@StewartGauld]

Hi mate! You are welcome! Good questions, forums are less important and relevant on websites when you can simply create groups on Facebook and other similar communities on other social media. I would go ahead and create multiple groups for specific communities and link these to your website for people to join. Cheers!

[@bradford-vts]

@@StewartGauld Interesting take Stewart. I posted the same questions on a number of other KZbinr sites and did a questionnaire on my already well established audience. The consensus was actually to go with forums. A forum on a website separates work and personal life stuff. A forum is easier to categorise messages. Old messages (say posted within last 2 years) will still be relevant for students preparing for exams (as things don't change that quick) and so forums are good for this whereas Facebook - the only message that counts is the current week. And I got a lot of replies saying people are leaving Facebook as it is too overwhelming, too intrusive and too unprofessional for professional sites. So, I decided to go with creating some forums on my website as it already has lots of visitors who come naturally. I've posted this in case any of your users are in the same position - and that Facebook might seem like the right answer - but there is more to consider than what meets the eye.

I don't know why I have multiple business manager accounts and can't seem to delete them as it won't let me. All this shit confuses me. Multiple business manager accounts, multiple pages, multiple ad accounts, like I don't get it. So confusing. I have an IG/FB Business Account for my main business. I am also opening up a new IG/FB business account for my other side business that's not related to the one above. Am I supposed to have a new business manager account for each business?

[@StewartGauld]

Hi Michael, no just have the one business manager that mangers all your assets like FB business page, ad accounts etc.

It’s saying unable to create account 😞 what should I do ?? Please help out

Hi mate! If you just made a Facebook profile, then you might not be able too. Also, I believe some countries have restrictions too.
