Facebook Selling Tips

[Keitho]

Decent article with Facebook selling ideas.

Here's an interesting finding from it:

In a guest article at Forbes, Rusian Fazlyev, CEO of social-media ecommerce platform Ecwid, said that Facebook commerce is growing substantially among small businesses. Fazlyev cited data from 35,000 Ecwid users — most of which are smaller merchants — and found that an average of 15 percent of overall revenue came from Facebook stores.

Re: Facebook Selling Tips

Call me old fashion ( in a modern day e-commerce sense) but, to me, selling on Facebook is like inviting friends over for a BBQ, then trying to sell them on vacation time shares....just saying. I believe there is a time to seed, and a time to sell.

When you see things like "15%" of their sales are coming from FaceBook, you have to ask..."is that 15% (5%, 3%, 1%) MORE sales, or just sales that are made THERE rather than on thier primary site?
