3. The power of marketplaces is difficult to harness
Strengths
Strengths
Massive audience
Ranked amongst the top ecommerce players
No need to invest in customer acquisition and marketing, especially expensive in new territories
Get your catalogue directly in front of the marketplace’s existing audience
Sell any type of product via generalist or specialised marketplaces
Third-party sellers’ products are promoted as much as marketplaces’ own range
New marketplaces are constantly being created; opportunities are still growing!
Be visible across Europe!
Weaknesses
Weaknesses
Each marketplace is different
Each has their own technology
Tendency to be selective about the sellers they want to onboard
Strict criteria in terms of product quality and customer service including fulfilment rates
Merchants must be present on more than one marketplace to cover the market
All aspects of distribution must be integrated to launch with success : delivery, after sales, invoicing,
returns management, translation, pricing…
