10 ways to get more orders from your Facebook page

Clear prices, fast replies, real photos and simple tracking: practical steps any Bangladeshi page can start this week.

Many pages get likes but few orders. Usually the problem is not the product - it is the small things between "interested" and "ordered". Here are ten that work.

Make ordering easy

1. Show the price. "Inbox for price" loses buyers who do not want to ask.
2. Reply fast. Set saved replies for common questions and answer within minutes in busy hours.
3. One clear order message. Ask for name, phone, address and product in one template.
4. Offer cash on delivery and bKash/Nagad. Say the delivery charge and time clearly.

Build trust

1. Real photos and short videos of the actual product, in hand, with size or colour shown.
2. Customer reviews and delivery screenshots (with permission, hide personal details).
3. A website or landing page with your offer and address: it looks more serious than a page alone.

Grow carefully

1. Post at the times your followers are online - check Page Insights, then post at those hours.
2. Boost the post that already works. Spend on a post that got comments and orders without ads, not on a new one.
3. Track what brings orders. Add a code or link per campaign (for example with utm tags on your website links) so you know which post sold.

What a good order flow looks like

1. A customer comments or messages "price?".
2. You reply within minutes with the price, delivery charge and your order template.
3. The customer sends their details; you confirm with a short summary and the delivery date.
4. After delivery, you ask for a review or a photo.

Save every customer's phone number in your sales software. Later you can send them offers and see who buys again - repeat customers are the cheapest orders you will ever get.

Common mistakes

• Posting only offers. Mix in short how-to videos, behind-the-scenes and customer stories.
• Boosting to the whole country. Target only the areas where you can actually deliver.
• Deleting negative comments. Reply politely and solve the problem in the inbox; other buyers see that you care.

Frequently asked questions

How often should I post?

Being regular matters more than posting a lot. Three to five good posts a week is enough for most small pages.

How much should I spend on boosting?

Start small on one post that already gets orders, run it for a few days, then compare the cost per message or order. Increase only what brings orders.

Do I need a website if I sell on Facebook?

Not to start. But a simple website or landing page builds trust, can be found on Google, and keeps your business safe if something happens to the page.
