We are trying facebook promotions, but its acting a lot funnier than we expected.
First of all on our page we don’t see the post shares, however they are shared ( crosschecked from our personal profiles).
Secondly, when we put up an ad, our page starts reaching more people as per fb insights and as soon as the ad stops, the insights drop down – how is this possible, the ad is being placed for the website not the fb page.
Also, the current ad promotion insights show some 120 clicks and zero conversions at our end.
The GA report & the Fb report show discrepancies.
Is our website lacking the attraction or is it some other issue?
Please share your views and feedback.

Hey Kunal,
You can also have an overview about us, as in how we started and where are we right now by having a look at our Rodhinood Post

Bhawana,
First off, amazing concept!!
Tried it! Loved it!! Recommended it!!!
Secondly, the account manager person will take care of most of your Facwebook ads stuff and will also help you get the best out of your campaign.
The best way to self-manage the campaign will be to run promoted posts on your page. They are highly viral and are also very cheap. (The minimal payment is INR 280 for a campaign that will run around 1-3 days depending upon the virality. Reach: Approx 2,500+ people according to FB stats)
Thirdly, are you sure you shared from the page itself to your personal profile? If yes then shares will definitely show.
As for the variance between GA and FB, the same is bound to be there at times due to the fact that they are both from different sources (read competing sources). Also, there is bound to be some difference due to a somewhat different measurement algorithm used by the two platforms.
I would need to have an in-depth look if you need further assistance. Always glad to help
