Marketplaces, Odoo and ShoppingFeed: Triple alliance for a winning strategy
A marketplace is an online platform that brings together a large number of sellers and buyers. What makes it even more powerful is its integration with Odoo, a complete ERP solution, and ShoppingFeed, a product flow manager specialising in optimising the presence of merchants on these platforms.
The changing e-commerce landscape and the need for an integrated strategy
According to the Fédération du e-commerce et de la vente à distance (FEVAD), marketplaces have experienced remarkable growth in recent years, capturing up to 30% of total e-commerce sales volume in 2018. This figure highlights the growing importance of marketplaces for retailers, as well as the need for effective omnichannel management and strategy.
The benefits of integrating Odoo and ShoppingFeed with marketplaces
Increased Visibility and Expansion
Marketplaces generate substantial traffic, attracting a large audience of potential buyers. With ShoppingFeed, you can automatically list your products on hundreds of sales channels, significantly increasing your visibility. At the same time, Odoo optimises internal management, ensuring that stocks and orders match this extended visibility. This combination allows you to reach a wider audience, increase your sales and strengthen your market position.
Centralised and consistent management
Odoo centralises all commercial operations, from stock management to accounting and order tracking. At the same time, ShoppingFeed ensures real-time synchronisation between your sales platform and marketplaces, guaranteeing that product information is always up to date and consistent. This centralised management saves you time and avoids costly errors, while improving the overall efficiency of your business.
Optimising marketing costs
By integrating Odoo and ShoppingFeed into your strategy, you can significantly reduce marketing costs. Marketplaces are responsible for generating traffic and promoting their platform, which means you don't have to invest as much in advertising and SEO to attract customers. This reduction in marketing spend allows you to maximise your profit margins while reaching a wider audience.
Reducing the risk of non-payment
Marketplaces act as a trusted third party between sellers and buyers, guaranteeing payment for orders. By using these platforms with Odoo and ShoppingFeed, you considerably reduce the risk of non-payment. Transactions are secure, allowing you to focus on growing your business rather than managing payment issues.
Market adaptability
The e-commerce landscape is evolving rapidly, with new trends and changing market requirements. ShoppingFeed offers analysis and optimisation tools to improve the performance of your ads on marketplaces. In addition, Odoo offers the flexibility to adapt quickly to the changing needs of your market. This adaptability allows you to remain competitive and respond to the changing demands of your customers.
Simplified operations and a better customer experience
Automating product flows via ShoppingFeed, coupled with Odoo's centralised management, reduces operational errors, saves valuable time and ensures a better customer experience. Customers benefit from real-time updates on stock levels and delivery times, boosting their confidence in your business.
Towards a thriving future: harness the power of Odoo and ShoppingFeed
Integrating Odoo and ShoppingFeed into your omnichannel strategy gives merchants an unrivalled advantage in maximising their presence and profitability on marketplaces. Together, these two solutions provide the tools needed to successfully navigate today's dynamic e-commerce landscape. By taking advantage of this triple alliance, you can not only increase your sales, but also simplify your operations and improve your customers' experience, which is essential if you are to remain competitive in the ever-changing world of online commerce.
