How to set up a Facebook Shop and Instagram Shop in 2024

Welcome, I'm looking forward to teaching you how to set up your Facebook / Instagram shop in 2024!

If you sell products online through a retail platform such as Amazon, Ebay, Etsy etc and would like to add a shop to your Facebook and Instagram page then this is the course for you.

This will allow you to tag your products in your posts on Facebook and Instagram, taking customers straight through to the individual sales pages for the corresponding products.

I'm going to show you step-by-step how to set up your Facebook / Instagram shop, through simple video tutorials.

Most of the tutorials are done on the computer not on your phone. I'd suggest watching these videos on your phone or tablet whilst on your computer / laptop so that you can implement the steps as you go along.

If you have any questions please post them in my social media support group on Facebook (The Social Flock). This is free to join for 3 months as a subscriber to this course. Request to join and copy the code that's detailed in the description on the first tutorial.

Now lets get started and create your Facebook / Instagram Shop!

PS ***If you sell directly through your website using Shopify or Woo commerce for example, this course will help but you don’t have to manually add your products to the catalogue you can upload them automatically. This is not covered in the course as it’s a different process for each platform, but reach out in the Facebook group The Social Flock and I can talk you through it***

Your shop must be created in Facebook, it can then be used for Instagram as well.

The first step is to change your Facebook template to "Shop". This video shows you how to do it.
