Why Sell On Trending Dealers?
Trending Dealers is a marketplace that specializes in both live events and eCommerce. Selling products at a live event and online offers numerous benefits for businesses. In the realm of live events, the immediate advantage lies in the ability to engage directly with customers, creating a personalized experience that fosters brand loyalty. Live events allow for face-to-face interactions, product demonstrations, and the opportunity to receive instant feedback. On the other hand, online sales provide a global reach, enabling businesses to tap into a vast customer base and expand their market exponentially. The convenience of online shopping enhances accessibility for customers, allowing them to browse, compare, and purchase products from the comfort of their homes. By leveraging both live events and online platforms, businesses can maximize their sales potential, combining the power of personal connection and global accessibility to reach a wider audience and drive sustainable growth.
Build Long Lasting Relationships With Customers 🤝
Networking at events is great and can help build long lasting relationships. Nothing is more personable then meeting someone face to face but its important to stay in touch after events are over. Trending Dealers gives you all the tools you need to make that happen. We are a powerful tool for building long-lasting relationships with customers. Through our platform, businesses can establish direct and ongoing communication channels, allowing for continuous engagement and personalized interactions. By leveraging social media, email marketing, and other digital channels, we help you regularly update customers on new products, promotions, and relevant content, fostering a sense of loyalty and connection. Trending Dealers also enables businesses to gather valuable customer data and insights, facilitating targeted marketing campaigns and personalized recommendations. Furthermore, online reviews and feedback systems provide a platform for customers to share their experiences, allowing businesses to address concerns promptly and showcase their commitment to customer satisfaction. With its ability to provide convenience, personalized experiences, and ongoing communication, Trending Dealers has emerged as a powerful tool for building enduring relationships with customers.
Great Selling Fees 💰
E-commerce marketplace platforms charge sellers a fee for each product or service they sell. These fees are used to maintain the platforms and improve them as necessary. Most platforms will charge you a minimum of 20% of each sale, and honestly, that is a pretty big amount especially for merchants who are just starting out. This often causes a significant markup in the retail price and overpricing your products will cause potential buyers to check other similar ones out. At Trending Dealers, we keep the selling fees to a minimum, enjoy choosing the membership that’s right for you. Silver members enjoy a rate of only 8% commission fee per sale. This makes sure that your products sell fast, you profit from them and can give the customer the best possible price. Upgrade to gold for an unbeatable selling fee of 0%! Cant get better than that right?
Advanced Seller Profile & Dashboard 📈
Having an advanced seller dashboard that includes features such as analytics, sales history, and customer location provides significant benefits for businesses. Analytics tools offer valuable insights into key metrics, such as sales trends, conversion rates, and customer behavior, enabling sellers to make data-driven decisions and optimize their strategies. Sales history allows sellers to track past transactions, identify top-performing products, and forecast future demand. By knowing the customer location, businesses can tailor their marketing efforts and customize product offerings based on regional preferences and target specific markets more effectively. This information helps sellers understand their customer base better, deliver personalized experiences, and ultimately improve customer satisfaction and retention. Overall, an advanced seller dashboard empowers businesses with actionable data, facilitating smarter decision-making, improved sales performance, and enhanced customer engagement. Trending Dealers advanced dashboard will also help you easily track statistics, product inventory, orders, top selling products, profile views and so much more.
