A bit off topic but I was wondering if anyone here sells prints on Facebook? I'm using places like Society6 but there's no integration which makes it really hard to promote myself (and track success)

I've not tried that specific thing (not sure how to do it to be honest), but I recently tried using Facebook advertising to try to drive people to a Fine Art America print of San Francisco. I wrote about the approach in this blog post:

and the results today in this post: http://www.backyardsilver.com/2017/08/facebook-advertising-work/ (http://www.backyardsilver.com/2017/08/facebook-advertising-work/)
For those who just want the bottom line... it didn't work!

I think you have to be very good at networking for that kind of stuff to work I'm not which is why I like agencies to do the marketing for me.

I think Shopify lets you sell products directly on Facebook.

Don't you still have the issue of getting a wide audience to see the product? That is what I was trying to do with my San Francisco print and so would a direct sale on Facebook be any easier?

You may have to try some facebook advertising to get the reach but once they click on your ad they are able to buy it right away on facebook. Unfortunately, shopify doesn't let you sell digital goods directly on Facebook - only physical goods.
