Tips For Setting a New Group
- When making a new private Facebook group, choose the name carefully. It should be according to the group’s purpose so that your group pops up before relevant people search for it.
- Next, set a cover photo of your Facebook group. It should be self-explanatory and must align with the purpose of your group. For example, the cover photo should include the tag or logo if you are a business or company.
- The description of the group should explain well the goal of this group. What will be the topic of discussion here, and some background story as well
- Set the group rules and clearly define the boundaries there. Then, make sure everyone agrees and follows them.
