Live shopping. Community-driven commerce. Commerce-ready content. There are so many ways social platforms are helping streamline the path to purchase and eliminate the barriers between inspiration and conversion.  
 
Facebook and Instagram are two key channels for consumers to gather and, in turn, are critical platforms for brands to reach and engage with their audience. During this week’s Retail Remix, Kate Gronso, Business Product Marketing Lead at Meta, reveals how the company is embracing new opportunities for social commerce and is developing new products to support consumers and brands alike. Kate shares:  

• How Meta is assessing consumer behaviors to identify new opportunities to drive community-driven commerce;  
• The unique role that content plays in supporting social, community-driven commerce experiences; and  
• Tips and best practices for developing a holistic social commerce strategy that touches consumers across key “moments” in their decision-making journey.
