Integrate e-commerce with marketplaces: Maximize sales opportunities with Connecteed

You created your online store with passion, taking care of every detail, carefully selecting the products and investing time and energy in its growth.

And now, you have a virtual storefront ready to share with the world.

But how can you maximize your audience reach and increase sales and profits? The answer lies in integration of your e-commerce with third-party marketplaces and in the adoption of professional tools for optimizing activities, such as the Connecteed feed manager.

Expanding the audience: the crucial step

Before going into the details, let's think about it: who is your audience?

Today's average customer is connected, informed and looking for convenient and economical solutions. They want to have access to a wide range of products to purchase from the comfort of home and to do so they use both search engines and online marketplaces.

That's why expanding your online presence to these marketplaces can be a crucial step to the success of your business.

Not only will you reach a larger audience, but you will also have the opportunity to capitalize on the trust that already exists in these well-established platforms.
 

The main options: Amazon, eBay and more

Among the best-known and most popular third-party marketplaces, Amazon and eBay are unquestionably the leaders in the sector.

Both platforms boast millions of active users and offer a wide range of product categories, including virtually every business sector imaginable. This makes them a natural choice for integrating with your e-commerce.

Amazon, in particular, offers a program called "Fulfillment by Amazon" (FBA), which allows you to store your products in their distribution centers and take advantage of their delivery service, greatly simplifying the sales process.

However, don't limit yourself to just these two options. There are many other specialized marketplaces that could be ideal for your business proposition. For example, Etsy is great for artisanal and handmade products, while Vinted is a large store dedicated to second-hand clothing.

Integrating third-party marketplaces may seem like a complicated undertaking, but that's where a solution like Connecteed comes in.
