Is it legal to create a small biz Facebook profile? - beaverthebeliever - 06-13-2014 01:39 AM
Hi. I make small leather goods as a hobby. I'm thinking about selling a few of them online. I'd like to post some of my product pictures on a Facebook, and create a profile just for my products. But my question is: Do I need a business license? I wouldn't exactly call my venture a business yet. It's more like a hobby. Someone told me that if you want to sell anything online you need to have a business license in the US. On the other hand, others pointed out for a small scale sales, it's not necessary, especially considering how much it will cost just to obtain and maintain a business license. Any good, practical advice? Thanks!

Why not?
Well, it isn't actually a profile, but a page. Under the signup form, you should be able to see a 'Create a Page for a Celibrity, Business or Brand' tag. Click it and you can start making your page by adding administrators, getting likes. It's really simple to set up and it's great to increase the popularity of products.
It's totally free and it''s 100% LEGAL. Though if you want to advertise through Facebook about your page(to get more likes) you have start an advertising campaign which will cost some money.
I have one myself about my website http://techngizmos.tk/

No, I know people who use Facebook to advertise their business....It shouldn't be a problem.
