Cross-border, an online international sales, is a definite trend in e-commerce. Take advantage of the opportunities that cross-border offers and sell even more and more effectively, also abroad. The biggest potential is in the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary and Romania, where e-commerce is growing at a furious pace. Why there and now? We explain!
Until now, selling cross-border was difficult because the merchant had to take care of everything himself. Couriers, fulfillment, logistics centres, marketplace, translations, customs documents, changes in regulations - it was all on the merchant's mind.
At IdoSell, we constantly support our merchants. That's why we show them that Europe is not only Germany and the countries where Amazon takes the biggest toll. There are many markets to which it is easier and cheaper to sell. In the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary or Romania, e-commerce is growing at a dizzying pace, just as it did in Poland a few years ago. Therefore, if you decide to start selling in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe, you can achieve amazing sales results, which in your home market, where competition is very high, may be unrealistic.
It is worth taking advantage of this potential and enter these markets right now. Don't wait until the market is saturated with your competitors' offers and online shops. Start selling abroad right now. With the support of IdoSell it will be very easy!
The first and at the same time easiest step to get your offer across the border can be a marketplace. In many sectors, you will have much more opportunities with your own online shop. It all depends on the assortment and offer. If you sell a lot of products, such as cups or towels, it is worth starting with the marketplace. In this case, you have to reckon with the fact that price will be the main criterion for making a purchase. However, if you are building your own brand and you care about recognition, we strongly recommend opening an online shop. This has several very important advantages. When you sell directly, you do not pay commissions to the marketplace and you build your own brand and informed, loyal customers.
You no longer have to look for couriers and suppliers yourself. Cross-border is a trend that is definitely on the rise and international sales are a priority for many of our sellers. The domestic market is already very competitive, which is why it makes sense to go out with your offer to other countries. How does IdoSell help to enter foreign markets and support sellers in cross-border sales?
Cross-border is a definite trend in e-commerce in Poland. This is partly because the domestic e-commerce market is very competitive and sellers are forced to lower their prices in order to compete. And prices cannot be lowered indefinitely. If retailers want to look for double-digit growth opportunities, they should focus on foreign markets. It is predicted that cross-border e-commerce will grow 27 percent year-on-year. Start planning your cross-border sales strategy now and take advantage of IdoSell's expert knowledge to help you get out into foreign markets and succeed.
