When it comes to social media, few platforms have the reach of Facebook. Despite the rise of social apps, Facebook still easily outnumbers all of them. With almost 3 billion active monthly users, nearly 38% of the world’s population and 62% of internet users are on Facebook. So, no matter what business you’re in, you’ll find many potential customers on Facebook.
While businesses use Facebook to boost engagement with customers, Facebook Marketplace presents a tremendous opportunity to turn likes into sales. Tagrain can help you get your products out there and easily sell to a whole new customer base. With its robust inventory management, omnichannel capabilities and flexible payment types, you can fully utilise the massive marketplace's massive reach. So, if you want to start selling on Facebook, this blog will answer all of your questions.
Originally set up as a direct-to-customer sales tool, Facebook Marketplace is a platform where Facebook users can sell a variety of products to interested buyers by posting classified ads for free.

However, Facebook has now added features like on-site checkout and shipping options meant to accommodate the needs of small businesses. So, any business owners and merchants can use it to sell their products or services, including home-based businesses, local sellers, and retail or eCommerce businesses.
