Letting someone else post on your Facebook page doesn’t mean losing control — it means staying visible without doing it all yourself.
Social media is great. Until it’s 9pm, you’ve had a long day and you’re sat staring at your phone thinking:
“I should really post something…”
If that’s you (and let’s be honest, it’s a lot of business owners), it might be time to get a bit of help.
And no, I don’t mean casually sharing your login details or asking whoever’s nearby to post something on a whim.
I mean properly adding someone to help post on your Facebook business page.
Why bother?
Because posting as your business keeps you looking active, credible and consistent.
It shows customers (and Google) that you’re still in business, you know what you’re doing and you’re not just a ghost page from 2020.
So how do you add someone?
It’s actually not that painful. Here’s the quick version:
✅ You need to:
- Be logged in to Facebook on your personal account (the one that manages the business page).
- Go to your business page.
- In the left menu, click “Settings” (or “Professional Dashboard”).
- Find “Page Access” or “Page Roles” depending on your setup.
- Click “Add New” or “Add Person to Page.”
- Enter the email address or name of the person you want to add.
- Choose a role — Editor is ideal if you want them to post and reply but not mess with admin stuff.
- Hit “Invite.” They’ll get a notification to accept.
Boom. You’ve delegated. And you haven’t handed over the whole shop.
Still worried?
You stay in control. You can remove access anytime. You’ll see exactly what gets posted and it’ll all come from your business page — not Karen in Accounts.
The point?
If social media always ends up at the bottom of your to do list, hand it to someone who’ll actually do it — and do it well.
👉 Need a hand with that? That’s what I do.
