JUMP START Blog and Online Community

Learning and understanding how to develop a strategic, social media marketing plan is a process.  It’s kind of like learning how to ride a bike.  The task may seem like a scary and daunting thing to jump into, but once you get the hang of it, you’ll never look back.  After all, the saying, “It’s like riding a bike,” didn’t just stick because it proved to be an impossible task; we use the saying because once you make the decision to try, progress will just flow. 

Facebook announced the testing of a new feature to help businesses drive sales, through Facebook, in their News Feed and on Pages.

With this feature, people on desktop or mobile can click the “Buy” call-to-action button on ads and Page posts to purchase a product directly from a business, without leaving Facebook. Rather than having to click through to a merchant’s website, users can enter credit card info directly into Facebook or use a card on file to complete the checkout flow in-line.
