Short answer
A free guide to making money with Meta Muse in 2026: setup services for small businesses, Instagram and Facebook content operations, e-commerce support, local business assistants, research services, building connectors, teaching, pricing, rules, and how to start.
Meta launched Muse, its personal AI agent, in the US on September 8, 2026. On September 29, it added Muse for Small Business, which links to Instagram and Facebook business accounts, Meta ad accounts, and tools such as Shopify, Stripe, QuickBooks, Canva, Notion, and Slack.
Most small businesses will not configure this well by themselves. That gap is your opening.
Do not sell Muse. Sell the hours saved and the customers won.
