Swapit’s Facebook Group “Swapit HK” Surpassed 100,000 Members

swapit-blog_hkA few months ago we officially announced to officially absorb the “Swap It HK” Facebook group, which at the time had 60,000 members. Over the past couple of months that group has undergone a re-branding to become the “Swapit HK” Facebook group. Growth of that Facebook has been phenomenal and a few weeks ago, it has surpassed the 100,000 members mark.

We have intensified Swapit’s deep integration with Facebook to leverage on the social media network effects and ease of sharing. Today, many people are trading on our Swapit HK Facebook group, but a lot more people are actually trading on our Swapit mobile app. More and more people are joining the Swapit mobile app every day.

Recently, we have also linked our Swapit HK Facebook Group with our Swapit App Facebook Page. That way, our two social media assets on Facebook can combine their force and amplify user engagement with our Swapit brand. This is how it looks like on our Swapit App Facebook Page:

The Swapit HK Facebook Group Stats

There is some impressive amount of trading happening in that one Facebook group since we’ve taken over the helm. Here are the key stats to date:swapit_marketing-chart-grow

  • Total Members: 100,924 (up 66%)
  • Sale Posts: 165,198 (up 230%)
  • #1 Category: fashion

Stats as of July 26th, 2017.

While the Swapit HK Facebook group is a good place to start, everyone who wants to get more out of his trading experience, ends up using the Swapit mobile app. It allows posting on the Swapit app – reaching 200,000+ potential buyers – as well as easy sharing into our own Swapit HK Facebook group – reaching an additional 100,000 members – and on top of that, easy sharing into a number of other buy & sell groups on Facebook – reaching more than 700,000 of their members.

To sum it up: Using the Swapit mobile app is the most efficient way to list your items and close a sale.
