Think about it this way, what if other irrelevant rather than brand starts pitching their products on sale over your facebook page - Sounds annoying already right? Exactly you've got to mind your own business through your page and not act like a spammer - It's okay to ask question and answers on other Facebook business pages but never pitch your own products and sales on their page.

7. Take Feedback, Reviews, And Queries Seriously

Customers can be rude and will bombard you with a hundred questions but you've got to know how to deal with them. Firstly, answer each query on time - the more you delay the more you lose out on your loyal followers. If somebody complains or becomes unfair in comment or wall posts - Use humor to eradicate the negativity away. Consider their point and find something to agree with in order to establish some kind of positivity and common ground to keep your customers away from negativity. Give them a smiley emoticon in response - even that helps at times. Maybe offer a small voucher/discounted deal if you come across a serious complaint through your business page - But before that gives a real-time solution which takes care of that issue completely then offer the advances but again be transparent, don't bluff your way out with fake deliverables or solutions.
