Is there an eCrater app to sell on Facebook all of the products on our ecrater stores? |

If you have a facebook page, there is a call to action button that you can set so that it says SHOP NOW. If you add the link to your home page, people can go right to your store and see your items. You can look on mine if you wish to see what it looks like. It is near the top right under the baby.

I didn't know about that Lastade. How do you get it to connect to your store? Will it only connect to 1 store? I have 5 here. |

You have to click on the "call to action" button. Yes, I think so.. it's possible to connect only one link, sorry. You might need to create one Facebook page for every store you have. |

I can't even get a second FB page. How do you get one per store? Ergo I don't use fB for business. I don't want to bug my friends with my store listings. |

I am not bugging any friends either... In fact I have no friends on that FB account that I use for my pages. And I have 2. |

You have to remember that Facebook tried this a long time ago. Alot of retailers tried facebook and then shut it down. The reason was that they werent getting any sales from Facebook. They were quoting facebook as being, as a bar where everyone gathered around and just asked for water.
Facebook knows they failed big time by trying to be another Ebay or Amazon, thats why they bought Thefind.com and just like everyone else, they stole one of the last free shopping comparision sites, and those a-xxx's turned it into a paid site now.
Facebook doesnt really bring in any sales, its a communications portale. Just like the other seller said "i dont use facebook for business...i just use it for friends." |

On your home page you should have some lists on the left side. One list says pages. You should see "Create Page." I believe this is where you could make a business page for each store. I have not tried it as I have just my one page for business "LaStade Designs." On my page I have my call to action linked to my Ecrater page because that is where I would like people to buy my patterns from. I do sell my items on several sites besides eCrater and I mostly posts things about knitting and crocheting on my business page. If someone wants to buy something they probably are smart enough if they follow me and know about what I do, to click on the shop now button. I use my page to promote me "La Stade!"

I have a business page with followers and got one ecrater sale through the page, but I don't want to inundate my friends on my personal page or my business page with lots of listings. However I have been able to SHARE posts from eCRATER's FB page that have gotten some notice in a good way. |

I have pages also but don't post on them. I use FB to keep up with people. I thought you were talking about a separate FB account. |

I have my original page which is how I keep up with my friends then added the other page when FB started letting people make pages. It can be used as an Ecrater store if you post just links to your store. Only friends that like your page see your posts. |
