HOW TO SETUP FACEBOOK BUSINESS PAGE FOR MOVERS
A Facebook business page for movers is a vital component to any moving company marketing strategy. While creating a business page might be obvious and easy for most, this guide is intended for users who aren’t at all familiar with Facebook.
With that being said, let’s get started on creating your moving company Facebook business page!
Step 1: go to facebook
Go to Facebook.com.
At the bottom of the page click “Create a Page for a celebrity, band, or business.”
Step 2: get started
There should be 2 options on the page. “Business or Brand,” and “Community or Public Figure.”
Click “Get Started” under Business or Brand
Step 3: login
If you aren’t already logged in to a personal Facebook account, the website will prompt you to do so.
Step 4: fill in basic info
When you click “Get Started” under Business or Brand a new window will appear on screen.
This is where you fill out information about your moving company.
Your Page Name will be the name of moving company.
Just below is Category. These are automatically generated business categories you can list your moving company under.
We suggest you choose “Home Movers” as your category as well as “Moving & Storage Service” if you also provide storage services.
Fill out the, “Description” section, describing the service you offer. Example: “Full-Service Moving Company: Residential and Commercial. We offer loading and unloading services including rental trucks and portable storage containers. We also offer full pack and move services.”
Click “Create Page”
Step 5: add profile photo
Next click “Add Profile Picture” prompting you to upload a business profile picture.
We recommend using a nice, semi-professional photograph of yourself, or a photograph of your business logo.
Click “Upload a Profile Picture,” locate your desired photo, and complete upload.
Step 6: add cover photo
Next, click “Add Cover Photo.”
We recommend using canva.com to create a custom image that incorporates your business logo or website.
Perhaps a picture of your truck/trailer with your website URL over it.
Click “Upload a Profile Picture,” locate your desired photo, and complete upload.
Click, “Save” at the bottom left of the page.
Step 7: Enter detailed info
Let’s move on to entering more detailed business information.
Remember, the more complete your moving company Facebook business page is, the better it performs.
Start by selecting “More”, then the “About” tab under your company name.
You will be able to adjust any business information you’ve already listed; along with adding additional information as you see fit.
Step 8: Create a post
Let’s create a post on your new moving company Facebook business page!
Start by selecting the, “Home” tab on the left side menu of your Facebook business page.
Once the page loads there will be a box near the center right of the screen with text inside that says, “Create post”
Click inside this box to create a new post for people to see!

On the home page of your Facebook business page scroll down a bit and on the left will be the friend’s list.
This list comes from the personal Facebook account used to create the business page.
