Merging Facebook Profile to Business Page? - Stephanie - 01-12-2014 11:54 PM
Hi,
I run a Facebook Profile for a business. We just recently made a Business Page, that is accessed through our Profile. We want to delete the Profile, and just keep the Page.. How can I merge the Profile info to the Business Page? If I delete the Profile, will I lose the page as well?
Thanks!

Unfortunately you are not able to merge a personal profile with a business page due to Facebook's structure.
I own an online marketing an social media management agency and we see this issue quite often. Here is what I suggest:
1) Create a personal profile for the owner/CEO of the company.
2) Assign management permissions to the new said personal profile.
3) Alert fans that you have started a new fan page and share the page on your company's old profile page.
4) After a significant number of fans have migrated, delete the old profile and you're done!
If you'd like additional help please feel free to contact me directly.

what you want to do is not possible - every business page needs to have a personal profile that is the admin for the page
