Online Auctioneers Bid Hello To Facebook
/EINPresswire.com/ Ball + Chain Accessory Auction Offers Designer Styles at Wholesale Prices
Social networking has transformed many routine tasks over the last few years, but online auction retailers had kept their distance - until now. Austin-based Ball + Chain Accessory Auction is one of only a handful of online auctioneers operating on the popular Facebook website. Although companies like eBay have been functioning as virtual auction houses for years, Ball + Chain is one of the first and few to bring bidding to the social hub.
From rings to handbags, bracelets to scarves, Ball + Chain offers a variety of women's accessories every Tuesday at 8pm CST/9pm EST via auction on their Facebook business page. Shoppers are treated to photos of the offerings, after which they're invited to place their bids. Within just a few seconds, bidders know if they've won the accessory. Questions about the auction or items are immediately answered, as well - impeccable customer service and interaction is essential to Ball + Chain's online business strategy.
"Businesses everywhere are scrambling to find a presence on social networking sites like Facebook, Pinterest and Twitter, because almost everyone is on at least one of them these days," said Kristina Lindsey, cofounder of Ball + Chain. "Not many companies, however, have invested in strategies to regularly engage consumers and immediately convert interest to sales. It's a new frontier, and we're excited to be paving the way."
Even though Ball + Chain has limited online auction competition, they further distinguish themselves as the only auctioneers of their kind to offer a "name your price" feature for all of their products. "We're genuinely interested in delivering the highest quality product at the lowest price," said Ashley Griffith, cofounder of Ball + Chain. "We're passionate about style, and our customers are too. By allowing them to name their own price, we're making these gorgeous items accessible to women of all backgrounds. We also offer free shipping on all sales and no sales tax for those living outside of Texas. I encourage all of our potential customers to do a little comparison shopping, and I guarantee that they'll come back to us every time."
Ball + Chain Accessory Auction was founded in 2012 by Austin best friends and style enthusiasts Kristina Lindsey and Ashley Griffith to provide fellow female fashionistas with exclusive designer-inspired accessories at wholesale prices. They maintain a standard of quality and affordability to allow them and their customers to remain prisoners to fashion, not to price.
