BFR is offering some Marketplace tips for small business owners! Have you ever noticed the incline of small business advertising on Facebook Marketplace from individual accounts??? This means that they are advertising their business for FREE! BFR decided to take an in-depth look on this topic.

Sure enough, it exists and works only in a certain way using carefully chosen keywords (without saying the word business), otherwise the listing will be flagged and removed.

Key points:

• Needs to be a mobile business to function properly (ex. Mobile plumber, mobile cake decorator, mobile automotive mechanic, etc.)

• Keep the ad short and simple using special keywords such as “contact to learn more” and list a few of the services you offer such as “parts replacements“,  “engine repairs”, “fluid changes”, etc.

• Never put your phone number in the ad (unless it’s on your commercial vehicle in a picture) and use Messenger as the main form of contact

• Fill the ad with all 10 pictures of your work, rotating out different pictures for the ad renewal

• Always keep an eye on the listing for the “Renew” button and “Delete and Relist” to keep the ad at the top

In no time, your small business will attract customers from a wide range of locations across the map. BFR can confirm that this is a useful tool for any small business. Try advertising your small business for FREE on Marketplace today!
Note: Anyone who reports this loophole to Facebook should be banned from the internet. Mark Zuckerberg has already been in hot water in January 2024 by lawmakers over child safety for not doing enough to protect children online so any loophole that takes advantage of his pockets is worth participating in! 💯
