1. It’s still the fastest way to reach a huge amount of people in a short amount of time.

Facebook luckily offers an immense range of targeting options that will help you find the right audience for your ads. More and more people are making their lives an open book on Facebook.

The same is true with your customers finding Facebook the easiest way to communicate with you. One post and you make wave to comments and private messages from potential customers. One thing business account owners should remember is to never keep their customers waiting for response – the faster you entertain them, the better.
