Here's a little trivia to shake your sillies out: there are over 1.70 billion people across the globe who spend an average of one hour every day using Facebook. If you think about it, that is some crazy number that is unlikely for anyone to earn anytime soon.
Let me share something crazier-- 86 percent of marketers in the United States are using Facebook to put the word out about their business, tapping to their market which is more or less a part of that 1.70 billion people statistic. Bottom line is, it only makes sense to do so.
Putting your business on Facebook is not only a wise strategy. With the digital landscape peering at the horizon, it is the most ideal one out there too. Most of the market is on Facebook, wouldn't it only be common sense for your business to be there too?
Because of these projections, we can realize Facebook's move to shape and refine its features, transforming the platform to a more convenient one for businesses and consumers alike with Facebook Shop.
Pretty self-explanatory, Facebook Shops is the social media site's one giant leap for e-commerce. A huge step-up from the app's earlier e-commerce explorations in the form of Facebook Marketplace, Facebook Shop offers a different shopping experience that may just disrupt the e-commerce industry as we know it.
While created for the sake of small businesses who are struggling to survive the pandemic, the introduction of Facebook Shops is set to catalyze a strong impact in the face of online shopping, which is why all businesses are encouraged to utilize this new feature while it's still for free.
If you need further encouragement, say no more.
With creating such breathtaking milestones for not just small businesses but all businesses as well, Facebook Shops is dead set on becoming a powerful business platform that anyone can become a part of. It is easy to use and free. At this rate, it would be insane not to make use of this beautiful feature designed for anyone who has the guts to make it big.
Facebook Shops is hot off the oven, released only last May, which is why only a small number of small businesses have had the privilege to experience it at this point. Check your email once in a while for notifications and see if you can now enjoy this wonderful update.
