Social media advertising should be IN ADDITION TO your company's traditional marketing efforts. Are you doing them?

FB BUSINESS PAGES THAT USE BOOSTS OR PAID ADS - PROTECT YOURSELF FROM HACKERS. 1. Make sure you have a strong FB password that does not include personal information that others could figure out (birthday, home address, etc) 2. Use a credit card instead of debit card on your Ad Manager account. This way if you are hacked you can easily dispute issues with your cc company and the money doesn't come directly out of your bank account. If you do find your account has been hacked, ...place a trouble ticket with FB immediately, call your CC company and change card number, follow up with FB and CC company. Sadly there ARE hackers out there trolling this site. Save yourself future headaches by following this advice. See more
