MultiChannel eCommerce

What is MultiChannel eCommerce?

Multi-channel eCommerce is a strategy that gives online businesses the ability to sell through a wide range of shopping websites and marketplaces, in addition to their own store. This method is becoming increasingly popular amongst online traders, simply because it makes it much easier to manage their business and to promote their products across a wide range of platforms. You know the old saying; time is money – having Multi-Channels as part of your eCommerce operation saves plenty of time – and money!

Having a presence online with your own store is a good start – however it's very unlikely that your own website will be able to reach the millions of potential customers worldwide who shop online every day. Selling platforms such as eBay, Amazon etc offer a great opportunity for eCommerce businesses, as well as individuals, to trade their products. With the nature of having to keep control of the products that are listed on these websites, managing them individually will prove difficult, not to mention time-consuming. Thankfully, there is a simple solution at hand - having a platform in which you can use Multi-Channel listings, will allow you to manage all of your stores, on all of your eCommerce websites, all at once. Saving your business money, as well as giving you more time to concentrate on other aspects of your work that may otherwise potentially be neglected, an eCommerce management system is the ideal tool for you to manage your business.

At Store Express we are fully aware of how possessing the ability to reach millions of potential customers, increases your brand's online visibility. This is something that Multi-Channels can provide. Our aim is to simply provide every company that we work with, the ability to take advantage of new and exciting technologies that will help them to be successful in this competitive online world.

How exactly does Multi-Channel eCommerce work?

Created by our industry experts, a multi-channel eCommerce management system is software that has been developed by a result of our first-hand experience. The system is streamlined and purposely made to be easy-to-use, which will help users to quickly adapt to using the system without much time needed to get up to speed with all of its functions. This will only help the business to grow more quickly, causing the minimum of disruption - and reaping the maximum benefits.

We also ensure that our interface is able to keep up with the latest changes within each platform that you may sell your products on. We can even provide new areas which is a great way of getting your products to appear on Google Shopping's feed. Google Shopping is the latest addition to the eCommerce trading world and is a fantastic way of increasing customers and your stores' general visibility.

Best of all, it gives you one uniform option in which to upload your products – each platform will have varying options, located in different places on their websites. Having uniformity will save even more time in which you deal with the different platforms, leaving you to concentrate on the other aspects of your business.

Store Express' Industry-Leading Multi-Channel eCommerce Platform.

One of the most difficult aspects of planning a multi-channel strategy is implementing the management of stock and orders across a wide range of eCommerce stores. This is where our bespoke multi-channel solution comes in.

With our vast experience in the e-Commerce world, we have been able to create a platform that can be ingratiated with all of your stores, called the Marketplace Edition. This eCommerce Management System (EMS) allows you to list, remove and edit products on a wide range of websites all at once. You are also able to upload images, print invoices, as well as view individual orders from all of the marketplaces that have been added to your multi-channel EMS interface.

Being able to run a well-designed EMS, such as the Marketplace Edition, means that you won't be wasting hours upon hours constantly changing individual product descriptions on a wide-range of eCommerce platforms. Our easy-to-manage eCommerce solution works towards helping your business to save time and money through inefficiency or human error.
