6 tools to create a facebook store

on July 4, 2011in Business & Marketing, Social media, Startups, Strategy Comments

I recently posted a list of 5 popular shopping carts to help you start selling online, this time the list is getting more interesting as it includes 6 tools to create a facebook store.

Selling via facebook has started to become a very popular trend among many small and big companies because you have immediate access to potential customers, which are your friends and fans. Although, this cannot get you very far (selling just to friends) it is however an excellent starting point.

Many experts believe that facebook is just a distribution channel and you must have a website in order to create a trustworthy brand, I honestly believe the same, none can assure us that facebook will be around in few years from now (the chances are very high that will be however).

So, here are the 6 tools to start selling via facebook:

1. Bigcommerce

2. Shopping Mall

3. Ecwid

4. Ventorshopsocial

5. Volusion

6. Storefrontsocial

Any more apps to create a facebook store?
