Benefits
-
If you're interested in a business that has a Facebook presence, you may see several benefits from "Liking" the business' Facebook page. Many businesses offer coupons and other promotional discounts to their Facebook followers. If you're following a business' page, you'll get a chance to receive any discounts or promotions currently taking place. If you visit Facebook daily, you will likely never miss any important update or promotion from the business in question.
Drawbacks
-
When you follow a business on Facebook, you may be subject to regular News Feed updates and even personal messages sent by the business. If you're interested in all the business has to offer, this may not bother you. But if you're busy, and repeated, spam-like messages in your inbox are a nuisance, you may want to think twice before following a business on Facebook.

Unliking
-
If you ever get fed up with the business, or no longer wish to see the business' updates appear on your News Feed, simple visit the business' page and click "Unlike" along the left-side, vertical menu. Doing so will delete your affiliation with the business so you will no longer see its updates.
