| Marketplace Enablement provides Dropshipping and Wholesale Suppliers an easy method for customers to list, market and sell their products, generating more ‘new orders’.
Dropshipping has become a favoured method for many Online Sellers to establish themselves as Stockless Retailers. It is a symbiotic relationship that benefits both the Retailer and Wholesalers, the more virtual products sold by Retailer the more new orders generated for the Wholesaler. Dropship and Wholesale providers are often selected on the basis of products variety at prices that can yield good profits, well stocked inventory, trade reputation and the addition of wholesale product catalogs in a downloadable format. It is this downloadable ‘FORMAT’ which plays a pivotal role in generating sales and new orders for both Sellers and Wholesalers. Good Products, Great Prices...?You have the right products at the right price. But if Sellers have to outlay additional time, resources and cost then as a proposition it becomes less appealing. More Work + Additional Resources = Less Appealing Wholesale Product Catalogs to MarketplacesWholesale Catalogs provide the details and Product Listings provide the marketing that generates the sales, leading to ‘New Orders’ Providing Sellers with your unique catalog in a variety of formats (EXCEL, CSV, XML, TAB, Semi-Colon Delimited, etc.), allow them to obtain a detailed list of your product inventory but it does not address the requirement to creating product listings. More Sellers + More Listed Products = More New Orders Unless product details are provided in the exact format required by the marketplace then Sellers have uphill struggle to convert your product catalogs into listing, thus creating a direct limiter on the volume of your new orders being generated through marketplace sales from Sellers.

Time Requirements The More SKU’s you have listed in your catalog, the greater the workload required on the client side to re-format in listings for webstores and marketplaces.

Many products may even be discontinued or on a long backorder by the time the Seller lists your products. Client Expertise Clients just might not have to expertise or willingness to turn large volumes of data into listings to generate new orders for you. The levels of expertise and technical competence will vary from client to client. Processing Costs The cost of outsourcing to a 3rd party or paying additional staff wages to convert Wholesale catalog data into marketplace listings or webstore formats is a crucial factor that may deter Sellers Payback Time Some products sold in volume may yield small margins for Sellers, so the payback time for the investment in processing costs may outstrip current and future profits.
