Have you ever seen some brands on Facebook are also selling their products on its fan page? And besides the product name and product price, visitors can also click on the product image and be redirected to the brand’s branded web store.
Although Facebook Shop has been around for a while, in the past, when brands want to set it up, it requires a lot of labor work to upload all the products, specs, and prices manually.

By this, SHOPLINE’s merchant can capitalize on Facebook Shop to increase exposure to potential customers, gather more leads, increase sales and more.

Once you’ve added products to the shop on your Page, you can encourage people to visit your shop by sharing your products to your Page timeline. When you share a product on your Page timeline, people who like your Page can see your product in their News Feed. We recommend you share products from your shop on your Page timeline regularly.
2. Tag your products in posts or in photos to increase visibility
You can tag products from your shop or catalog in your photos and videos. When people see your products tagged in your posts, they can click those tags to shop your products.
