There are so many different social media platforms to choose from that can help your elder law firm’s marketing initiatives. Just as you can’t be all things to all clients, you can’t be all things on all social media platforms—pick one or two to focus on and commit yourself to those.

The platform used often by your potential elder law clients (and their families) is Facebook. First thing first, you must create a personal account if you don’t already have one and then you can create a business page. Do not try to make your personal page work for your business page.

2. In the upper right corner, click the downward triangle and select “Create Page“

4. Continue with the setup process and complete as much of the information as possible.
5. Upload profile and timeline cover images. (Make sure you use the correct dimensions for your images so they display nicely)
6. Invite friends and family to like your page to get the Likes rolling in.
7. Once you’ve hit 25 likes, you’ll be able to customize your username and URL (another key part of branding).

That’s it! You’ve just created a Facebook business page for your law firm. Now don’t forget to visit back often and keep your network enlightened on all the great things you and your firm are doing.
