Facebook Social Post Selling | Social Commerce (3/3)

​​2. SC (EN).png

SHOPLINE's Facebook Social Post Selling feature allows merchants to use the "Keyword comments + quantity " function for non-live-streaming posts on the Facebook Page!

After the customer leaves a message in the post, the system will send the shopping cart link through Messenger by detecting the keywords set up by the merchants, so that the customer can directly complete the checkout.

⚠️ Note: This article covers part 3 of the "Social Post Selling". If you are setting it up for the first time, please refer to Facebook Social Post Selling (1/3) and Facebook Social Post Selling (2/3).

This article will cover the following:

 

1. Enable Facebook Social Post Selling

Click the Enable button at the top right of the page.

*Please double-check:

  1. The status of the linked Facebook post is published or scheduled (If it is a scheduled post, make sure that the Facebook Social Post Selling schedule corresponds to the Facebook post schedule time so that customers can place orders successfully when the post is published).
  2. The content of the Facebook post contains the description of product keywords. This can ensure that customers can view and place an order successfully.

When this window appears, the post for sale has been successfully created and the status will be updated to "Open".

*Notes:

  • If you remove a Social Post Selling that is still "Open", customers will still be able to place keyword orders by commenting on the post.
  • When you remove a Social Post Selling, a pop-up window will ask you to double confirm before proceeding.

  • The copied post will appear at the top of the Social Post Selling list.
  • When you copy a Social Post Selling, the system will only copy the name, product, keyword, order placement rules, comment, and message setup, and scheduled time of the Social Post Selling. The Facebook link will not be included, so you will need to reconnect the Facebook post. 

 

4. Customer's view after making comments on a Facebook post
