Shopping feels different. More than a purchase. More than a ‘good find…’ nowadays, it just hits differently. That moment when a product or a brand seems to find YOU. And in that way, shopping isn’t shopping. It’s Discovery Commerce.
And it’s because people come online with a sense of openness. People come to connect, explore and discover new things. And while they aren’t here with the sole intention to shop, they do end up buying things. And, more than that, they buy into things that enrich their experience. It’s the opportunity to make those kismet connections with people in the most authentic, provoking and meaningful ways; that feel natural where they are, what they’re doing, and what they care about. 

Of weekly users of Meta platforms surveyed in the US, more than 74% who discover new brands or products online typically discover them on a Facebook platform, compared to 55% via search, 43% via eComm and 41% via brand/retailer website
