New Facebook Pages Admin Roles for Ybrant:
Until today, in order to run social ad formats on Faceboook, it was necessary to be a full administrator of the page. this naturally created some security and confidentiality concerns for brands that are using external services. In order to solve this, Facebook have launched last week the new Admin Roles for Pages. The new role include Manager, Content Creator, Moderator, Advertiser and Analyst. This means that you only need to add an Ads service provider as “advertiser”, and they can run social formats for you.
By being able to develop technology focusing on Facebook’s APIs, Ybrant is trying to pursue strategies that were almost impossible to accomplish.
