Facebook is free, readily accessible to anyone, and has a global reach; indeed, it is oversaturated with ads.
Where else to advertise? ALL advertising is good and potentially beneficial...the flyers you print out and leave at your local laundromat or supermarket may well find their way into the hands of someone looking for EXACTLY what you are offering. Business cards left with the tip at a restaurant can have the same results.
Paid advertising, of course, opens new venues, but based on your Facebook question, let's focus on FREE advertising.
If you haven't done so already, you'll want to create an "online presence." This is easily achieved by starting a blog or a website in a niche you are familiar with and getting your search engine to recognize you. Create your online signature that you will use EVERYWHERE, in emails, forum postings, etc. to drive traffic to your website or blog (there are many FREE ways to drive traffic, but that is a whole 'nother topic of conversation).
Remember to incorporate other free venues like Instagram, Twitter, and Tumblr into your advertising campaign.
Seek out free advertising sites such as Craigslist, Backpage, and Ebay Classifieds to promote on.
In fact, Google "free advertising sites" to open an entire world of possibilities.
These are but a few suggestions; hopefully, something here will bring you great success.
Best of luck to you!
