Step-by-Step Guide

1. Log In to the Commerce Manager

First, you need to log in to your Facebook Commerce Manager. This is the place where you will manage all your product information. Go to Facebook, sign in with your account, then look for the Commerce Manager in the menu and click on it.

2. Add Item

Once you are in the Commerce Manager, you will find the "Add Item" button at the top of the page. Click on it to see the different options for adding items. There are three possibilities: manual, via a data feed, or with a pixel. In this tutorial, we will use the manual method.

3. Choose Manual Input

Select the manual option by clicking on it and then proceed with "Next". This method allows you to add items individually and enter all information directly.

4. Upload Item

Now you are at the stage where you can upload items. Click on "New Items" and start adding your product information. Here you can also upload photos of your products.

5. Upload Photo

Click on the image icon to upload a photo from your computer. Choose a suitable image of your product. In this example, we select a book to demonstrate the process.

6. Enter Product Details

After your image is uploaded, enter the title and description of your product. For example: "E-book on Making Money" with the description: "Do you want to learn how to earn money online?"

7. Add Website Link

Now add the link where the product is available. This could be a link to your own online store created with Shopify or WooCommerce. Make sure it is correct, as an incorrect link can prevent the upload.

8. Set Price

Now you need to set the price for your product. In this example, we set the regular price at 4 euros and a promotional price of 2 euros. This gives customers an incentive to act quickly.

9. Choose Category and Condition

Choose the appropriate category for your product. In our example, we use "eBook". You can also select the condition of the product; for a new product, choose "new".

Add Second Article

If you want to add a second article, go through the same process again. Upload another product image, enter the details of the new product, and add the required links and prices.

Upload Article

Once you have added all products, click on the "Upload Articles" button. Make sure all links and information are correct before doing this to avoid errors during uploading.

Completion

After the upload process is complete, you have successfully inserted your articles into the Commerce Manager. You can now click on "Finish" and your uploaded products will be visible in the shop.

Summary

In this guide, you have learned how to add articles to the Facebook Commerce Manager. The process includes logging into the Commerce Manager, uploading product images, entering product details, and setting prices and links. With these steps, you can easily manage and sell your products.
