The 1-20-600 Method for Online Marketplaces
If you are and you targeting a higher sales volume for the year then great news! Kumoten developed an amazing method for those sellers who are using any Online Marketplaces in Malaysia.
How does it work? We take it through steps like below.
Step 1: The 1 Rule: Spend 1(one) hour a day to select and import the items to your MyStore.
Browse through our 10,000++ items in our catalog and start selecting items by click 'Add to MyStore'. Make sure you are signed in to your Kumoten Account first. We suggest to select one category per day. That way, you can extend your category listing.
Step 2: The 20 Rule: Select a maximum of 20 products to sync to your selected marketplaces
Make sure to have a minimum of 20 products a day to be synced into your preferred Online Marketplaces (we have 2 choices for you to choose from HERE). We only mention 20 items as a benchmark. You can definitely sync more if you want but please remember that this has to be done every day. So a safer option would always be the minimum 20 products. But it is totally up to you.
Make sure your API keys are activated in order to use this feature. If not, please email the Online Marketplaces Support team and have them ACTIVATE your API key. It should be activated within a day or two.
**STEP 2.5 (EXTRA TIP): The EXTRA MILE: Select 5 products from your MyStore and reword the product name into something more attractive.
This is what is going to separate you from the other online retailers, your added advantage, rename at least 5 products before you sync an item.
Example:-
'MODERN LACE MIDI CHEONGSAM' can be reworked and renamed as 'CNY MIDI DRESS: MODERN CHEONGSAM [LACE MATERIAL]'.
Spend an extra hour just to do this and you already have the added advantage of being different from the other retailers.
Step 3: The 600 Rule: Upload 20 product for the next 30 days to reach 600 available SKUs in your store.
Now if you have been syncing 20 products a day for the first 30 days, you will have 600 items in your store. What does that tell you?
- You store is currently active
- Your store has many categories
- You have different varieties products
What does this tell the customer? They will definitely be intrigued and would definitely prefer to shop with someone who they can trust and have special deals on items. In the end, your traffic will increase and would definitely increase the possibility of sales.
