How to Sell Products on Social Media – Step-by-Step Guide

Selling on social media requires a mix of content marketing, paid ads, influencer collaborations, and customer engagement. Follow these 6 steps to maximise sales.

  • Not every platform works for every business. Choose the best one for your target audience & product type:


    Instagram & TikTok – Best for fashion, beauty, fitness, lifestyle & trending products.
    Facebook & Pinterest – Great for home decor, handmade goods, and niche markets.
    LinkedIn & Twitter – Ideal for B2B & high-ticket services.

    Tip: Instagram & TikTok Shopping are the most effective platforms for high-volume, impulse-driven purchases.

  • Most social platforms now offer built-in eCommerce tools:


    Instagram Shopping – Tag products in posts, Reels & Stories.
    Facebook Shops – Create a storefront directly on Facebook.
    TikTok Shop – Sell directly through TikTok’s marketplace.
    Pinterest Shopping – Use product pins to drive sales.

    Tip: Optimize product listings with SEO-friendly descriptions & high-quality images.

  • Great content = More sales! Use engaging, high-converting content that attracts and persuades buyers.

    Product Demo Videos – Show how your product solves a problem.
    Behind-the-Scenes & BTS Content – Build brand trust with transparency.
    Influencer & User-Generated Content (UGC) – Social proof drives conversions.
    Shoppable Reels & TikToks – Tag products directly in videos for instant purchases.

  • Paid ads help scale your reach and target high-intent buyers.

    Facebook & Instagram Ads – Retarget users who visited your store.
    TikTok Spark Ads – Boost viral videos featuring your products.
    Pinterest Ads – Target users searching for products like yours.
    Google Shopping & Retargeting – Capture high-intent buyers.

    Tip: Use retargeting ads to show products to people who viewed but didn’t buy.

  • People buy from brands they trust. Leverage influencers and UGC (user-generated content) to boost credibility.

    Partner with micro-influencers – They have higher engagement rates than big celebrities.
    Encourage customers to share reviews & testimonials.
    Feature real customer photos & videos in posts & ads.

  • Engagement = More sales! Actively respond to comments, DMs & live video interactions.

    Use Instagram & TikTok Live Shopping – Showcase products in real time.
    Run Limited-Time Offers & Flash Sales – Create urgency to buy now.
    Reply to Every Comment & DM Promptly – Personalized engagement builds trust.

    Tip: 50% of customers expect brands to respond within an hour on social media—fast engagement increases conversion rates.
