Innovative eCommerce Provider Enables Retailers to Leverage Sales Potential of Internet's Most Popular Social Media Site
ShopVisible, a leading provider of on-demand eCommerce solutions, today announced an application for customers to market and sell their products and services through Facebook. More than a dozen ShopVisible customers are capitalizing on the most popular social networking site to raise brand-awareness and increase sales, including Scrubs-America, RightSize Health & Nutrition and Donell Super-Skin.
While some big-box retailers are using Facebook to support online sales, ShopVisible enables retailers to customize their Facebook sites to enable eCommerce sales through the destination. ShopVisible sales sites can be up and running with the Facebook application within one week, enabling retailers to create Facebook promotions to increase fans and drive traffic back to the main retail sites.
"With ShopVisible, customers can leverage Facebook to expand awareness and drive sales. We offer customers a cutting-edge application that taps the fastest growing social media site today," said Josh Lloyd, CTO and Co-Founder of ShopVisible. "With more than 250 million members, Facebook allows our customers to significantly enhance their reach to potential buyers and customers and greatly enhance their search engine optimization. Additionally, our team can help retailers create a greater customer experience to increase loyal 'followers' and turn them into brand advocates."
RightSize Health & Nutrition moved to the ShopVisible platform in 2009 and has quickly become one of the largest nutritional retailers on the Internet. The company saw the advantages of establishing a sales channel through Facebook to continue to build its leadership position and increase its revenues through eCommerce.
"Today's business needs to understand the power of social networking in order to thrive. Part of the success of RightSize is our ability to interact with our customer in a personal way. The ShopVisible Facebook integration enables us to present our products for immediate purchase to those who are seeking unbiased reviews from the Facebook community," said Jennifer Goodner, Corporate Support Manager of RightSize Health & Nutrition. "For us, this is an opportunity for minimal cost, word of mouth referral resulting in instant sales. We feel the customers appreciate this user experience as well – eliminating the need for navigation away from their Facebook account. We have many plans for expanding our 'fan base,' which with the help of the ShopVisible Facebook integration app, will positively increase our Web presence, site traffic and sales."
