Trade shows are the lifeblood of many B2B businesses, offering invaluable opportunities to connect with clients, showcase new products, and generate leads. But what happens when the trade show season winds down? The answer lies in leveraging a robust B2B e-commerce platform like MarketTime to maintain momentum and drive sales throughout the year.
MarketTime has become a staple at the nation’s biggest wholesale trade shows. Our team loves attending these industry gatherings and showcasing order writing and our B2B e-commerce platform to prospective clients and leading brands. But our team also understands that prepping for a big show or wholesale market can be hectic.
Already established in your niche wholesale market? That's great! But let's be honest – competition is fierce, trends shift quickly, and simply surviving isn't enough. You want to thrive, dominate, and become the undisputed leader in your field.
As we head into the bustling summer show season, we're excited to announce that we'll be attending a number of upcoming trade shows and will be available to showcase...
Is your B2B sales success guaranteed when you list on a bustling online marketplace? Think again. While those platforms offer visibility, they are not tailored to the complex needs of the B2B world. To truly cultivate lasting business relationships, maximize lead quality, and streamline your sales processes, you need a dedicated B2B sales solution. This powerful approach unlocks advantages that generic marketplaces cannot compete with alone. As we explore various sales approaches, let's consider the potential benefits of using a dedicated B2B platform. Meanwhile, online marketplaces can be a convenient launchpad and a useful tool alongside a solution specifically designed for B2B sales.
In the wholesale eCommerce world, connecting with new customers and helping them place their first order with your brand or agency is a wonderful experience. However, reorders, not one-off purchases, have the biggest impact on year-end revenue. With that in mind, you need to make it easy for retail buyers to place reorders by investing in a B2B omnichannel commerce platform.
MarketTime has hit the trifecta in building a B2B wholesale software that connects and nurtures the relationship between suppliers and retailers via salespeople. Other digital platforms have erased the middleman but what they have failed to recognize is just how valuable a sales representative relationship is to the brands looking to sell wholesale on their digital B2B eCommerce platform.
Wholesale brands in the modern economy must pay attention to credit card payments if they want to survive. Since credit card fraud, identity theft, and compromised data are on the rise, protecting the integrity of credit card transactions is crucial. If this data is handled correctly, retail buyers will retain trust and loyalty to your company.
At MarketTime we believe salespeople are crucial to the wholesale industry and great salespeople know the value of following up. Following up is an important part of the B2B sales process because it allows salespeople to stay in touch with potential and current clients and is key to building strong relationships. When salespeople follow up with leads and clients they provide them with valuable information about new products, current and future product availability, and address any concerns they may have.
MarketTime hosted a webinar about the art of follow-up, focusing on how B2B sales professionals follow up with new leads. We conducted surveys during the presentation, and MarketTime obtained some interesting insights. As we prepare for another upcoming wholesale show season, we invite you to learn more about some of the takeaways gathered from Salespeople, Sales Agency Admins, Sales Managers, and Suppliers that attended the webinar and utilize these tools as your follow-up post-shows.
