Thank you Mr. Dennis Yu for sharing so much valuable info in this short video. There are agencies out there who are not doing the right thing and their clients have no clue.
This is amazing. I almost used one ad account for several clients.. Thank you for the valuable information
High quality content. Thanks 👍
Awesome tutorial. Dennis is a great presenter. I love the illustrations and animations.
Michael-- thank you. The Social Media Examiner team knows how to create great educational videos!
Thanks, Michael! Dennis is the man... We just add the final polish to the content ✨ -Mitch
Thank you for telling me the one thing I have been looking for. "Each Page Needs It's Own Ad Account!" This is huge. I have really messed up. I had made an ad account for my personal account and then I made a new account with my website and added an ad account. Then, I made another page for my DBA and I have been stuck because I didn't know if I needed to somehow connect the DBA to one of the other accounts (personal/website) or if I needed to create a new ad account. I will try to watch some more of your videos b/c I have several things going on. I would also like to create a new pixel for an affiliate program I want to promote and I am not sure how or where to set that up. I have one pixel on my website's page and actually I have used it for my DBA, so I may need to make a new pixel for the DBA and an ad account for the DBA.
So glad it was so helpful for you! -Jen
Love the new Videos!!! This is valuable information!!
Thank you for the feedback! Happy New Year to you. -Megan🤓
I am loving you guys, you make it look lot easier
Made my day! Thankyou so much!
This is definitely the tutorial I want! Thanks!
Great! Thanks for watching, Ryan. -Mitch
Ryan, glad to help!
I was shocked and overwhelming with joy when PRESENT-JONES on IG sent me the log details and every thing works out perfectly
Hy Dennis, you always give us value. Thank you.
Just found your channel. Awesome graphics and content. I was wondering how do you do these cools graphics? lol
Thanks for the kind words, SP. We use Adobe AfterEffects to create all of the motion graphics. You should definitely check it out. It is incredibly powerful. -Mitch
Thank you! You are the only resource that truly answers questions from every possible angle. Hopefully Facebook is paying you! ;)
Haha, thanks Janet! We're doing our best to try and be a good resource for our community. We appreciate you.

Thank you very much, Janet.
Hi Dennis, Will adding my Clients to my Agency Business Manager, implies they will not have access to Campaigns I create for them (My Client had a poor experience with her past Agency), I want to offer the right service, either asking her add me as an Advertiser via her Facebook page to run Campaigns or Business Manager as demonstrated by you using Partner Access (Just that am confused).
solid information provided!
Thanks, James! Appreciate you.
-Megan🤓
Great vid quick question Ben! So I have two businesses. One is registered as a Partnership (not a corporation) and the other is not. Can I "verify" the business manager account under my registered Partnership company (Not incorporated) and claim the business page of the one which is not registered?
I want to verify my business manager account since I want to prevent any ad account shut downs.
Thank you very much and Happy New Year and New Decade 🕚🎉🎈
Thanks, Chris.
Happy New Year to ALL!!! -Megan🤓
To give value to clients is a skill. I am trying to learn that.
Back again to this very useful video. THANK YOU!
Love it! Glad you find so much value in it! -Jen
Needed this like a year ago. Haha. Thank you
Haha-- thanks, Icini. Business Manager keeps changing!
Well, hopefully it was a good refresher 😉. -Mitch
Hey Dennis, if I grant admin access to my page for someone to run ads, am I able to see what they are doing, in terms or ad sets, would I be able to see audiences etc?
If one business have, let's say, 10 facebook pages in one business account, they need to have 10 ads accounts? I never realised that is the case, I am using one business ad account for all of their facebook pages (they have severals). Can you share Facebook guideliness for this? I searched but I could not find it, and I do not wanna get banned :)
Usually, yes-- one ad account per page. But they haven't really cracked down yet.
wonderful content
So glad you found so much value in it! -Jen
bless you brother. saved me a lot of headache. SALUTE
Glad you found it to be helpful. -Jason
Thanks for the nice video. We have the following issue - our customer has a FB page owned by their BManager but they want us to run ads from our own ad account in our BM (they don't have a credit card so they can't run ads from their ad account right now). We have no problem to pay instead of them. We can create a separate ad account for them in our BM. Is it allowed from FB point of view to run ads from our ad account to a page we don't own (our customer's BM owns it)?
excellent
Thanks!
4:24 is this true that we need to have one ad account per page? Currently I am doing course on digital marketing and once I asked my instructor whether one ad account is enough in Facebook to run ads on multiple business pages of clients that we have access to or we need different ad account. He said one ad account is enough. I am confused. Is there any article that I can read in detail about this - "one ad account per page on Facebook"
Hi there, so, I have a question regarding the registered Ltd company, or legal business name, and my first 'primary' page. Do these need to match? I have just started running shopify stores, and my registered business is my name, not named after the branded stores. Thanks
If we have more than one shop and we want to have on separated Bussiness managers, is it allowed to open them from one person? Becouse if this person gets restricted I guess all BM are going down? Thanks
I have created my business page, and some how my personal account is listed in the business manager with a campaign ad. How do I remove my personal account from my business Facebook page? or Can I?
Is it necessary to have a 'business email' to create a business manager account? Earlier i created two bm accounts on two of my pages,but now fb is asking for 'business email'. Also my personal ad account got banned after i tried to create a new business manager account.(not sure whether this is the reason).Please share ur opinion
Hi! Can I advertise different dropshipping stores from the same BM? I don't speak English very well but it seemed to me to understand that you say that advertising different pages / webs from the same adaccount can be a reason for banning. Is this correct?? And one last doubt, if I use an adaccount per page / store and for some reason I end up closing the store. Could I use that adaccount for another store in the future? or if the store closes, should I never use that adaccount again? Many thanks. New Sub!
I keep getting you cant use this feature at the moment while creating account......PLEASE HELP ME.
What if I have three businesses personally? Do I create three business managers? Please do a video for someone with multiple businesses
no you can create one business manager for your 3 business. And then you can add your three business pages into the same manager and connect ad account, set pixel with them.
I am unable to add my current page in to bussiness manager. It showing an error of " you can't add this page to your bussiness manager account because it is primary page for another bussiness " help me out sir
Hi, I have been advised by two different 7 figure earners on getting an Ad Account as a back up in case mine gets shut down. The problem is that one person said I should only have 1 Ad account because if I have several ad accounts that are unused fb can close down my whole Biz Manager ( which happened to a friend). Another 7 figure earner said I should get back up Ad accounts and not put my credit card in as if fb close down an Ad account they also disable all credit cards linked. What do you recommend?
Hi Orvil-- depends on the niche you're in. Generally, if you aren't doing things against the ads TOS, you can get the ad account back on appeal. Your bigger question will be whether you're violating the TOS accidentally, not how many ad accounts you spin up each time you're shut down for policy violations.
Thecyberlord . com helped me successfully
I like others cannot create the business manager account. I've tried every which way and still I get an error try back later. WHY? No one has explained this in any tutorial yet.
Hey, I am not able to create Facebook Business Manager Account. After I fill all the details correctly and click on Submit button. it says "An error occured while processing this request.

please share how u could get through this error?
i am struggling
So , I manage a few pages and I am thinking of starting to start a small agency. I like the fact that I can do a lot from my phone. How my of that would go away if I converted to Business Manager, or is it primarily for the ads and I would still be able to post and answer comment from the phone?
Business Manager works well, especially for agencies, Josh. Just make sure you add yourself to Business Manager so your access doesn't "disappear".
Dennis Yu thanks
@@joshsmith4488 Make sure you also download the Page Manager and Ads Manager app so you can do stuff on the go. However, viewing the desktop site on mobile has gotten a lot better throughout the years!
Great tip, Paul - thanks! -Megan🤓
I started to create a business manager account for one of the pages that I am an admin on and with this new Facebook Business Suite I am so lost!
sir in my business manager, my page is added as a primary business page I don't know what is its benefit and I want to remove from primary business manager without any loss in my business manager Help me how I do it
secondly I during monetization i added bank setup that an error accured and now Pre enrolled option appearing but not showing set up option for monitazation my page
Hi Muhammad-- Business Manager is the "container" for your pages and ad accounts. It helps you organize access to these assets-- who can see or use what.
Hi, are you saying that one benefit of business manager is that if one ad account gets shut down I can set up other ad accounts and switch to those?
Hi Orvil.
If you have an ad account shut down, you could create a new one through Business Manager or directly.
Certainly, Business Manager makes it easier to create more ad accounts properly, because you can save things like funding sources.
But the main benefit of Business Manager is keeping track of all your assets and managing control across multiple people.
why do i keep getting error ocured and it wont let me make the account
did you ever get this fixed
I was shocked and overwhelming with joy when PRESENT-JONES on IG sent me the log details and every thing works out perfectly
Does each business account have a separate password that my client and I can share?
I have a question, if any one can answer it
Currently I am running my personal fb page and run ads for my business. In future I plan to make a SMMA and for this I have to make a business manager account obviously. So my question is should I make business manager account with my personal fb account or should I make a new fb account one? And would there be a problem if I make a business manager account with my personal account?
do i need to make a new account for this one or can i use my main facebook account?
hey everytime i go to create account and when i put everything in it keeps giving me an error when i hit submit. do you know why its doing it??
ya..me too..:)
me too and not a video out there explaining it
me too. And is putting a website a requirement? I just wanted to set up a shop. I contacted FB and they told me I need to create FB manager but I can't go passed the website. I put our Instagram page just to put something there but it kept giving me an error.
What you CAN try is sign on to your business.facebook.com from your Safari (not Chrome). NOTE: I think also, if you don’t have a Business Manager, you can click on your personal Facebook and also see if it works on Safari. ...... See if your Business Manager works from Safari. If it does, the issue is in your Chrome. Go to the 3 dots on the top right of your desktop (on the Chrome Search Engine), click the 3 dots, scroll down to “More Tools’, go to “Clear Browsing Data”, click ALL TIME, (check the 4 boxes, right above the password box), then hit “clear data”, then after that go back to your Chrome and click the 3 dots on the top right corner, scroll down to “settings”, then scroll all the way to the bottom of the page and click the tiny “advanced” arrow, then scroll all the way down to Restore settings to their original defaults. You will reset Chrome, and your error should be corrected.
Same here man
Is your personal ad account going to be the same account in your business manager?
A good question? How can I link each facebook page for each ads account under my business manager.
Hi Tony!
Go to Business Settings "top right", then go to "pages" on the left nav. And click on "add new page". Make sure that you also go under "people" to add yourself and others with permission to those pages you've added to your Business Manager.
i still am so confused, i have multiple pages that i have for businesses and i also at some point would like to add a few more pages that i would advertise management for.... yes one of my clients is my mom... she is in real estate.... please help dennis... not sure if i can message you directly.. looking to get this organized this weekend... talk soon

Help please .. just what u mentioned at 3:45 I can't access to my page... how do I enable it through the business manager...I tried everything but no luck. can't see my page from my personal account anymore either...please help
It is my understanding that you have to "re-share" access to your personal account for your page. This can be done from your business manager account. facebook.com/business/help/325571851329683?id=2190812977867143 -Mitch

Hey FB peeps, I am confused about the (4:30) rule about 1 page per ad account and that you have to create one NEW business account per page? What is defined as a page...a website I am promoting? or what? I thought the whole point of FB Business Manager was to manage several pages? Confused, please help!
A page is simply considered as a Facebook Page for your business/brand. -Jen
hello, we received a notif that someone is accepted as a business manager on a personal blog page. We do not know that person and we do not have business manager. How do we kick him?
I just started at a new company. I have used Facebook Business Manager to manage my own business pages and others in the past, but now I want to manage a different business’ page in business manager.
I have been granted Admin access on my normal Facebook account, but I can’t access the Facebook page or ad accounts associated with it in Business Manager.
The page is already owned by a Business Manager profile, but I am not sure who accessed that. Do I need to be granted access to that Facebook Business Manager? I have no idea what the right way to go about this is. I can access the page insights and post, just not in business manager.
Hi Gazry-- many business managers can have access to any particular asset. ut you can have only one owner for an asset.
Hi there,
I am trying to appoint a business manager who will manage my pages. I am stuck on the part Add a new partner -Partner business ID. What is this
ID?

@@DennisYu please answer us,it is vital for us.
No doubt this is an informative video, but the fact is, so SO many people have had issues with FB Business Manager that it's shortcomings are pretty hard to deny. I'm still listed as an OWNER of a page I'm an admin for, which I don't imagine tends to really sit all that well with the actual owners. It should have been multiples more intuitive.
Hey, Jonathan- no doubt it's challenging and we're regularly trying to figure out how to work with it! -Megan🤓
@@SocialMediaExaminer I'm wondering . . .what would happen if I just went ahead and deleted my current Business Manager entirely so that I could start over again? Is there a moratorium on doing so and would there be collateral Facebook "damage" (i.e. would the page I admin for be temporarily or permanently suspended, etc.? The frustration factor is substantial, because unlike Google for example, Facebook has virtually no real customer support.
@@JLThisisMe You could start a new Business Manager, provided you have admin on the underlying assets at the same time. Then delete the old Business Manager AFTER you're done.
Yes, Business Manager is still clunky, but it's a super powerful way to manage multiple assets and access controls for many people. And if you're an agency, Facebook's support level is based on spend in your entire Business Manager, so you have an incentive to get all clients in one BM.
Dennis Yu Thanks, Dennis. I appreciate the response. That’s just what I will do.
Dear Dennis,
do I understand it right that it is not possible for people to join the Facebook Business Manager if the people do not have their personal Facebook profile?
We have a problem at our company to give accesses to our Facebook fanpage. Some of our employees dont use Facebook accounts at all.. Do you have any solutions for this?
We try to create a fake account like info@....com but we werent successful. The reason was that Facebook algoritm had denied our fake account and wanted to add only a person, not a fake general company profile as a user.
Thank you for your advice
Yes, people who are admins of any kind on Facebook do have to have their own personal Facebook profile, whether they decide to use it or not. -Jen

@@rafaelperalta5635 Did you get it resolved? Creating a Business Manager shouldn't get you banned. If anything, it will help you when bad stuff happens, since you have a backup account and multiple logins.
Dennis Yu I didn’t. I actually created 2 new accounts to try the process again, and every time I created the business manager and linked Facebook to Instagram, I got banned. On those same 2 accounts! Don’t know what I’m doing that goes against the norms...

Hello sir
@Dennis Yu , you recommend 1 Ad account per Page. (and each Ad account must have separate billing method - correct?). How to deal with multiple pages that i've created by my own? Each page is a different niche (for dropshipping products/stores). How to manage all that correctly? Thank you in advance!
Hi Art! You don't have to have separate billing methods per ad account. It's okay to reuse the same payment source. If each page is a different niche (like a different site), then you'll want to create separate ad accounts. You get one pixel per ad account, so you'd not want to contaminate the pixel, anyway.
My account is all messed up. Any thoughts? The issue I am having is, one day our IG account was removed from our Facebook Page.
After investigating, I noticed that our Facebook Business Manager account was also gone. I am the only admin of both pages. When I go into Facebook Business Manager to add me back to the account, it says that it has sent a request to the business manager admin. But doesn't list anyone as the admin.
Eek. Any thoughts?
Who set up the Business Manager? You'll want to contact the admin, who may or may not be the admin of your pages and ad accounts.
Dennis Yu Yep, it is me. I’m the only admin.
Don't we have a maximum of two ad accounts per profile?
I have hundreds.
my business manger can only create one ad account. how to increase ad account limit.
Facebook puts limits in place, so that people can't just make 50 new ad accounts. Build up history over time and you'll get more.
Can I have an Admin in the Philippines and the VA can login to her personal Philippines Facebook Account and help us run our Facebook business through the account/business manager access?
Does the Philippines VA need to be on VPN or RDP to hide the VA’s Philippines IP address?
