Facebook says 140 million businesses use the platform and its apps every month

Facebook has announced that more than 140 million businesses use its apps every month to find new customers, hire employees or engage with their communities.
Michelle Klein, VP of Global Business Marketing, said Facebook is opening up 17 of its largest offices and hubs around the world to host “Boost with Facebook Holiday Bootcamp”, a training programme designed to help small businesses and non-profits learn how to grow their business and get ready for the holiday shopping season.
“We know holidays are one of the busiest times of the year for many businesses, so having the right resources and skills to manage your business during this time is critical,” Klein said in a blog post on Thursday.
