Hello
Interested in opening an additional facebook account from the current personal account that I have. I do not want to create a "page". I want a new account. Not sure if it is suggested that I create a personal or business format under my name. What is the easiest way to do that?
Is it easiest to log out of my account and then say "sign up a new account" and use a different email address? Facebook seems to demand that only one account exist. What do you all do?
Thx

It may not answer your question but it’s a place to start.

Facebook does not want personal profiles to be a business. They want an actually legal name for personal accounts. So if you do a personal account you may find yourself struggling and getting reported by other users.
Facebook Business Page gives you a lot of control over things. Including tagging products in your posts if you set up your commerce account correctly. I also love the scheduling feature.
It's good to create your brand consistency across all the networks as well. So settle on a brand name and use that everywhere. 🙂
Good luck starting out!
