By leveraging Salesforce B2C Commerce integration capabilities with Facebook Marketplace, you can create amazing opportunities to increase customer engagement and drive significant profit-growing ROI for your business.

In this blog, we’ll discuss how you can integrate Salesforce B2C Commerce with Facebook Marketplace to expand your customer reach and drive revenue growth using advanced sales strategies with one of the most used social-marketplace platforms.

Salesforce integration with Facebook Marketplace allows businesses to connect their Salesforce B2C Commerce catalog with Facebook Marketplace. By integrating the two platforms, businesses can easily manage their product listings, keep them up-to-date with inventory and pricing information, and interact with customers directly on Facebook, thereby increasing customer engagement and driving revenue.

To integrate Facebook Marketplace with Salesforce B2C Commerce, you must have a Facebook page and a Facebook Business Manager Account.

Follow the below steps to get it done:

• Create a Facebook Account and a Business Manager Account.
• Create an Account in Commerce Manager and create a catalog. Link the account to the Business Manager Account.
• Manage the setup pixel.
• Go to Site > Merchant Tools > Site Preferences > Facebook and Instagram Shopping.

• Click on “Continue with Facebook” and authorize it.
• Enable products for Facebook feed.

• Click Enable Integration, and then click Submit.

• Provide a feed ID (an arbitrary string). You’ll see a Run Now button.
• The catalog will be available in Facebook Commerce Manager. Create a Shop.

The integration offers two checkout options — Checkout on Facebook and Checkout on Website.

• Checkout on Facebook:This option enables shoppers to pay for products they want to buy directly on Facebook. It also reduces friction during checkout and helps to increase sales by displaying collections and making other products easily discoverable.
• Checkout on Website:This option allows shoppers to browse products on the Facebook shop and are re-directed to the Salesforce B2C Commerce website for payment processing.

When configuring Facebook’s product feed, it is essential to specify if you want to include the products on the website. However, you can add eligible products that fulfil the following criteria:

• The product can be accessed from the storefront.
• Base product or variation is enabled at the website level.
• The product is not a base product, product bundle, product set, or optional product.

• Go to Site > Merchant Tools > Products and Catalogs > Products.
• Search for the product and select it.
• Click All Site Values to change the default value for this product.
• Choose the default product value for all sites.
• Deselect Use Default and select the value to change the default value for this product.
• Click Apply.

Users can also upload an empty Facebook catalog feed export file to Salesforce B2C Commerce, which happens when products are not enabled on Facebook. Invalid data, such as products without images, titles, or descriptions can be included in the feed export file. However, Facebook’s Business Manager displays the data missing and from which product. In addition, Facebook Feed export logs warn about missing product data.

By integrating Salesforce B2C Commerce with Facebook, businesses can tap into Facebook’s massive user base and reach a wider audience with their products, driving more traffic to their website and increasing sales.

With Salesforce B2C Commerce catalog integration with Facebook Marketplace, businesses can easily manage their product listings and periodically update with inventory and pricing information.

Businesses can improve customer engagement by enabling them to interact with customers directly on Facebook, respond to their inquiries and feedback, and build relationships.
