I'd like to quit Facebook and IG, but I need to use it for work, among other issues. Any help working around this?

So I want to quit Facebook and IG, but I have a number of issues I'm hoping you guys can offer some solutions to.

1. I need to operate my work's pages. I'm head coach / manager of a gym. We use it to communicate with our clients, set up events, etc. I can't really find a way around this.
2. I use Messenger as my primary form of communication. I know I should switch to Line, WhatsApp, etc, but using Messenger seems to be the most inclusive way to communicate with family, friends, etc. I live out of my home country and have friends all over the world that I keep in touch with and Messenger makes that so simple. I don't want to have like 4 other message apps that I have to use for various people.
3. Is there a way to pull all of my photos off FB and IG and save to my computer?
4. I'll probably have to use it for a personal (remote work) business, as well, in the near future.

Any helping cutting the proverbial cord would be appreciated. I'm fed up with the scrolling, the politics, the privacy violations, everything. I want to move on from it and focus on more concrete things in my life.
