WHY we’re here.

Today’s customer experience on marketplaces is lacking. It is not the experience that brands would like to deliver, nor the experience that customers are expecting from them. A brand’s superior products and the promise of a great buying experience gets diluted through the channel complexities that growing and multiplying marketplaces have created, as illustrated below:

When you leave it to the marketplace to represent your products, inefficient shipping, inconsistent fulfillment, dismal returns management negatively impact the outbound and reverse logistics experience. Low-volume, low-margin, low-service storefronts—whether they are legitimate operators or not, undercut the brand’s channel strategies, pricing controls and reputation.

An uncontrolled marketplace is a race to the bottom. Pricing standards, promotions, margins, profitability and sustainable outcomes are near impossible. Even worse, brands lose control over their catalog, content, and message. Way more important than achieving a one-time sale, the reputation of the brand gets misrepresented in the transaction and the opportunity for winning over loyal customers is forever lost.

It does not have to be that way. 

WHAT we’re doing.

 

“What MarketNation does for brands is by far the most comprehensive and innovative approach I’ve seen to date for assuring marketplace success.” 

Jeremy King, former Chief Technology Officer, Walmart
