Creating a facebook business page

Can anyone help me set up a business page on Facebook? I have a profile page but would like a business page, or some other page for my craft. I tried setting it up using the Local Business or Place, but I have to enter my name, address and phone. Really don’t want all that on FB, but if I must, I must. However, when I add my phone, it always tells me the number is not valid. I’m thinking I can use one of the other choices; Company, Organization or Institution; or the Brand or Product. I don’t need my personal information on the other two. However, do they work the same as a business page? Can I advertise the same way as I would with a business page?
Thanks for your help.
