Facebook: Shop & Shopping
In 2019, Facebook had 2.45 billion users worldwide and that was just the start. It began as a photo-sharing platform, today it stands out to be a place where people can connect with everything they love and want in their life.
You as an online seller can use this platform to reach your customers. If you want to sell on Facebook all you need is a will and investment of time to gain your first ever sale on Facebook.
When Facebook introduced Facebook Shop for the first time, it practically made it simpler for the sellers to sell their products online. It has shortened the bridge between buyer and customers resulting in a better customer experience and brand building.
Â
Messenger, Chat & Shop Selling
Facebook Shops helps small businesses set up a single online store for their customers to access on both Facebook and Instagram. With this new feature, you can also sell products through the chat features of WhatsApp, Messenger, and Instagram. You can tag products during Facebook and Instagram live streams, which will take customers to a product ordering page.
Facebook Marketplace is a place on Facebook where people discover, buy, and sell items. Individuals and businesses can use the above features (WhatsApp, Messenger, Instagram) to perform these tasks. If you have a Facebook business page and a Facebook Shop with checkout, you can sell as a business on the Marketplace (currently limited to US merchants).
Facebook: Marketplace & Shop Differences
Facebook shop is more of an ecommerce Website. If you own an ecommerce website, you can link your website and choose to sell on Facebook directly.
An ecommerce store has defined pages such as a landing page, categorized products to choose from, fixed pricing and delivery charges, official payment checkout, return services, and any other services you offer to your buyers when they shop from your website.
On the other hand, you can not consider Facebook Marketplace as an ideal ecommerce store, as it is basically more of a platform that is targeted by individual sellers.
Unlike Facebook shop, the Marketplace has very few options for ecommerce. To sell on Facebook Marketplace is to sell your products to you personally. You can simply put your products on display to sell on Facebook where the interested buyers can personally contact you, negotiate the price, and make a purchase.Â
