Facebook Verified Benefits:
Did you know if you are Facebook verified, which costs £9.99 pm you get the benefit of…
Enhanced Account Support:
Access to real-person support for common account issues.
Impersonation Protection:
Proactive monitoring of your account to prevent fakers.

Boosted presence in certain areas of the platforms, such as search, comments and recommendations.

Personally I find the enhanced account support very useful when I have a Facebook issue and I need to speak with them either for myself or on behalf of a client.
How do you set it up?
From your personal profile, click profile image top right, scroll down to settings and privacy, click settings, then click account centre on the left hand menu bar, click Meta verified.

LinkedIn has changed quite a bit over the past few months. If your profile hasn’t had a refresh for a while, it will most likely need a few tweaks to make it more algorithm and search friendly.
Amongst other things, I offer 1–2–1 profile reviews with clear, honest feedback on what to improve and what to leave as it is. Happy to have a conversation if helpful.🥰

If you need to speak to Facebook about an issue, setting up the verification is the easiest way to do it. Then cancel once the issue is fixed. I hope that helps. Enjoy your week.
Warmest regards.
