Facebook’s Community Boost program for SMBs began back in January, and now it’s expanding to new cities and dates across the US.

Facebook wants to make it easier for people to grow their businesses and find jobs. And with 80 million small businesses currently on the platform, making it one of the largest communities of small businesses globally, Facebook is looking for ways to support them by “building new technology and new programs based on their feedback to help them grow, trade, and hire.”
