Our MarketTime community grows every week. Over the past few months, we’ve welcomed an unprecedented number of new vendors and sales agencies. These companies are adopting MarketTime sales tools powering both in-person and online sales and leveraging the extraordinary value that salespeople offer.
Let’s assume you want to sell an apple on the internet. With today’s online sales solutions, it’s easier than ever to set up a retail website. But what if you’re a wholesale apple supplier, and you want to sell your apples to retail merchants — a dozen boxes of Macintosh and Honeycrisp, or a half-peck of Red Delicious?
As January begins to draw to a close, we wanted to share this fun fact about Salespeople. At MarketTime, we believe in the power of the Human Element. Every day we enable 7,000 sales representatives to close more deals and save time. After a record breaking market season this month, we wanted to bring their hard work and effort to life with this fun fact.
When Paris, France-based Djeco decided to expand into the United States, they knew that having a sophisticated but easy-to-use B2B omni-channel solution was key to their success.
While most B2B sales organizations have already locked in their 2022 plans, Q1 wholesale trade shows are a great way to discover new opportunities to fuel continued growth throughout the fiscal year.
The months between September and December are the busiest and most profitable for retailers, as pre-holiday home renovation and gift shopping are at their peak among consumers.
It’s taken some time for B2B commerce as we know it to adapt to the online format as a viable alternative to brick-and-mortar storefronts and face-to-face interaction between companies.
Why did you start MarketTime?
When preparing for trade shows and wholesale markets, many manufacturers and sales agencies are so focused on showcasing new products that sometimes enhancing the buyers’ experience is forgotten.
The world re-opened in 2021. Consumers returned to stores, retailers traveled to trade shows, and sales representatives hit the road. However, those months of staying at home in 2020 demonstrated to everyone just how convenient it is to do much of that same work from a laptop, tablet, or phone —if you have the right systems in place. It further proved that omnichannel is the future of wholesale.
