In this episode…Sellers prefer to sell their products on Amazon because it’s one of the most popular e-commerce channels. It also has a global customer base, provides fulfillment centers, and offers various advertising options. However, sellers can utilize several other omnichannels to diversify their marketing strategy and 10X their growth.
For vendors who have grown comfortable with Amazon and may be hesitant to try different shopping platforms, Eric Kooymans, a veteran in the e-commerce industry, suggests starting with Google Shopping. It’s an easy setup, especially if you already use Shopify or WooCommerce. Google Shopping provides plugins allowing you to activate different platforms that populate multiple feeds. Eric also recommends Faire, an online wholesale marketplace. Faire helps sellers easily set up their online storefront, gives access to a large customer base, manages orders efficiently, and connects you with new customers. These are just a few strategies Eric expounds on in his 10-step action plan.
