Key Benefits of an Industrial eCommerce Platform

  1. Grow Your Sales

    Move to adjacent markets and expand your product offering

    • Industrial eCommerce suppliers need an impactful online presence that grows leads and cultivates return customers. Launch SEO-friendly websites or B2B marketplaces that are available 24/7 from any device and grow leads on auto-pilot.
    • Build large catalogs consisting of multiple product libraries. Display products in configurable format (also known as matrix format) and help shoppers easily customize their batch orders consisting of different variations of the same product.
    • Segment customers and market relevant products to them controlling visibility of the ones they don’t need. Increase customer satisfaction, average order value, and build the best industrial products resource around.
    • Make forays into new markets and verticals. Accommodate all customers regardless of their preferences for language, currency, and payment options – and manage it all from one admin panel.

    • Help shoppers find what they’re looking for with powerful search. Allow customers to search and narrow industrial product results by item, part number, description, SKU, and other product attributes.
    • Make life easier for customers with a personalized self-service portal. Provide access to up-to-date product and pricing data available to them 24/7 from any device.
    • Support business requirements of any type with multi-level, permission-based access to industrial catalogs. Simplify the buying process with intuitive ordering and checkout sequences, as well as shipping options customized specifically for them.
