Why should you integrate your online store with Facebook?
1. Get customers from Facebook
Nearly 4 billion people use social media today. Chances are that 90% of your target customers are also using Facebook. With this integration, if your Facebook page visitors like a product, they can click on it and be redirected to your online store to finish the purchase.
2. Run ads on both Instagram and Facebook
Subscribing to the app automatically sets up your FB pixels account. You can now run ads for the products of your online store on Facebook and Instagram.
Not only that, FB pixel gives you detailed analysis and data which helps you:
- Understand which ads are working and which are not
- Helps retarget people who have shown an intent to purchase but didn’t go through with it
3. Automated catalogue updates
Similar to the google shopping feed, the Facebook for Instamojo integration updates the catalog on Facebook whenever there is a change in inventory or catalog on your online store.
This includes the addition and removal of products and any updates to products (assets and inventory).
Go to your commerce manager to check your updated catalog on Facebook.
