How To Easily Turn On Professional Mode On Your Facebook Profile

In December 2021 Facebook has come up with a new feature that allows users to turn their Facebook profile into professional mode and enjoy some proficient tools such as the unlimited number of followers and monetization opportunities that can help in generating income. 

Before the introduction of this feature, Facebook users could only use Facebook pages to build a public presence for their business firms. But this new professional mode for profiles has come to work just like a substitute for the Facebook page. In this article we will discuss how to turn on professional mode on your Facebook profile, subsequently, you will learn how to turn it off and use your ordinary Facebook profile if you feel not like to use it. 

What is Facebook Professional Mode 

Is a new mode that allows a Facebook user to use professional tools and build a public presence through his Facebook profile. 

Unlike the typical profile, this mode allows eligible creators to earn revenue from their Facebook account, and their content can be seen by anyone (if they published it as public), also they can be followed by anyone on Facebook. 

In a nutshell, enabling professional mode is adding new tools to your Facebook profile that make it unique so that you can expand your public presence and earn money as a creator.
