Facebook: The app that does it all
Facebook: The App that does it all
My journey with Facebook began when I was 12 years, I remember it vividly because that was the age I got my very first phone, it was 2017 I had just received my results from SEA and as a reward for my excellent grades I got a cellphone, and as soon as I got it, the first app I downloaded was Facebook, at that time it was the only social I knew because I would always see my mom using it, at first it was just a app for me to watch silly videos, especially those Nigerian short films our parents seemed to love, but I slowly started realising that the app called Facebook had a lot more in store for me.
At first I started exploring the different features, it was tricky to use at first but as I kept using it, it became like muscle memory to operate the app, some of the best features I discovered were, firstly Facebook live, as a member of my church's media department every Sunday we would go live on Facebook, it was one of our means of reaching a wider audience. Secondly was Facebook marketplace, you ever needed something and wasn't sure where you could get it, chances are Facebook marketplace has it, from used cars, to cellphones and PlayStation 5's, even fresh homemade food ready for delivery, you could get anything on Facebook marketplace. And lastly Facebook groups; have you ever wanted to know what jobs are available, there's a Facebook group for that, you want to know what areas T&tec taking power from next week, check a Facebook group, if you even want to know if your partner is loyal, you can surely find a Facebook group talking about that. You can find everything on Facebook.
Now Don't be mistaken, Facebook isn't just an app, to scroll and watch videos, it's also a power house business tool, with billions, not millions, billions of active users daily, Facebook is the perfect tool to set up and run your business.
