@brelow - I agree with @jai_son_m, I don't understand how exactly Like2Buy functions without either a video demo, some sort of GIF that plays out the process of discovery to purchase, or a clickable link to a live example on Instagram.
@TheRyanRobinson@jai_son_m Hey guys. Thanks for the feedback. We tried to get this launch out the door and one of the items that didn't make the cut was a GIF/video. Will be added next week. Luckily, all the press we've been receiving has done a great job of explaining, so we are seeing a decent conversion rate.
Regardless, check out http://instagram.com/Nordstrom or http://instagram.com/saks. Both work on desktop. 'Like' their most recent photo and click the link in their bio.
Happy to answer any questions about Like2Buy!
We launched yesterday with brands like Nordstrom, Target, Charlotte Russe, and a few others. The response has been overwhelming.
It took me a few minutes as well but I think they are simply creating a mobile storefront for all images uploaded to a your instagram account and making products in the photos purchasable.
1. If you are a brand, you might have to connect your instagram account with an Like2Buy app via OAuth2.
2. Then they might be sourcing all the images from your feed and creating a mobile storefront.
3. The owner of the brand might then need to assign prices etc to make the items purchasable.
Apologies in advance if I misunderstood the concept.
