Shmore vs Facebook Groups: own the experience, own the results

Facebook controls visibility, data, and UX. Shmore returns ownership to your brand with analytics, automations, and Shopify-native insights.

Up to +40%

Average order value

Member advocacy

1 member = 234 followers

The Facebook Group ceiling for ambitious brands

Algorithms gate your reach, data belongs to Meta, and you lack the tooling to prove revenue impact.

Algorithm roulette

Posts vanish in feeds, notifications depend on Meta, and members get distracted instantly.

No business proof

Basic insights only, no revenue dashboards, exports limited to CSV dumps.

Brand dilution

Facebook UI, ads everywhere, little control over guidelines or moderation workflows.
