Facebook shopping (f-commerce) is beginning to turn the tide of doing business online, and the businesses that are taking advantage of using facebook fan pages for at least one step of their marketing process are reaping the benefits.
Facebook Shopping and Fan Page eCommerce Predictions
The experts are predicting $30 billion in global purchases on facebook by 2015. Currently, we are at $5 billion in transactions occurring on Facebook, so $30 billion seems a long way off, until you look at the trends. The truth is, if Facebook is watching the numbers , we’re most likely going to see more and more features for businesses added to the already growing fan page commerce offering.
If you’re just looking at fan pages along, Facebook’s actions suggest that there’s no limit to where things could go. Facebook is offering businesses the ability to attract thousands of new fans with new features like iframes, questions, at tagging, etc. They’ve given businesses a place to interact with their customers, which is leading to more sales because everything is happening inside a trusted and safe environment.
