Growing on these platforms is mostly a long-term strategy but we’ve seen many Sellers get fast results. It really depends on a number of factors specific to that platform. It also depends on your channel strategy with brick & mortar and online, and whether your brand is trademarked. But another huge factor driving growth is how much ongoing marketing support you can provide to each platform such as e-mail marketing, organic & paid social media, influencer marketing, promotions, and much more.
That said, it's always a good idea to use the advertising and promotional offerings of Amazon, Walmart Marketplace, and your own marketing efforts for your Shopify E-commerce. Driving eyeballs within your sphere of owned media areas to these e-commerce platforms all can play a big role to support your growth.
Indeed, wherever you are, you'll want to ask yourself if you can improve what would it look like? And also, where are the gaps, bottlenecks, and friction points preventing us from doing more business and growing your brand. We can partner with you as an extension of your team to improve target areas. And we create a relationship that's mutually productive, saves you time, hassle, and money, where we might be able to shoulder the burden in key areas.
Maybe it's enough, but why would you not want to use assets created from Amazon and launch on a new marketplace? Walmart is making a major run at Amazon for the online e-commerce dollar. We feel diversifying your e-commerce with Walmart Marketplace make sense in that it gives you exposure to a whole new community, protects you in case something happens to your Amazon store, and gives you a new stream of income.
