Free Facebook policy template

From Jade McAuley, Rebel Marketing
For those of you who don't have an acceptable use of your business Facebook page yet, this free template is for you. No one may read it, but if you ever have to remove comments or boot someone off, you can cite this policy to the person in question to cover your butt.
On your page, head to Settings > Apps. Under Apps you may like, there will be Notes - click Add App. Head back to the main page and, from the left hand menu, click Notes.
Once you are in Notes, hit +Add Note and copy the below in - make sure you change all of the "Rebel Marketing" terms to your business name before you hit Publish.
