Karen Waksman, the founder of Retail MBA provides insights, about Build.com, a platform for home improvement products, appliances and flooring. With its establishment in 2000 Build.com has achieved success by offering a range of half a million products on their website. In this article we will explore factors to keep in mind when approaching Build.com to sell your consumer product.
Shipping Methods
The first crucial aspect to consider when dealing with Build.com is their focus on shipping methods. Dropshipping is an adopted approach by retailers like Build.com for product delivery to customers. If you collaborate with them and a customer purchases your product it’s important to determine how the product will reach the customer. Should you ship it directly. Entrust it to a third party fulfillment house? These are questions that require consideration when working with Build.com. Additionally if your product is large or requires shipping arrangements finding reliable third party companies specialized in handling aspects would be beneficial according to Karens suggestion.
The second noteworthy point when approaching Build.com is that many people tend to overlook its impact. This often happens because individuals primarily focus on retailers, like Home Depot and Lowes.However it’s important not to overlook Build.com as it’s a regarded destination, for home improvement products. Of limiting yourself to your retailers consider exploring other potential options for selling your products. Karen encourages us to think and consider alternatives beyond our choices.
Range of Products
Another aspect to keep in mind when considering Build.com is their range of product offerings. Even if you don’t have a home improvement product don’t dismiss the possibility of partnering with Build.com. Karen reminds us that retailers like Home Depot sell an array of items, including clothing and electronics. If Build.com offers products to yours it’s definitely worth considering as a retailer. With its customer base and revenue potential Build.com shouldn’t be overlooked. Of focusing on one type of retailer explore the alternatives that may not immediately come to mind.
If you’re just starting out Karen suggests reaching out to Build.com as an opportunity to establish your presence in the market. Being featured on their website can serve as evidence that your product has the ability to generate sales. Other retailers like Home Depot and Lowes appreciate the assurance provided by having proven products in the market. While its not the factor influencing their decision to purchase from you it certainly helps significantly. Building a partnership with Build.com can be instrumental, in getting your business off the ground and achieving success.
Getting Started
In summary, Build.com stands out as a destination, for individuals seeking home improvement supplies and appliances. With an inventory of half a million products on their website there are plenty of opportunities to collaborate with them. Karen Waksman provides insights into approaching Build.com for selling your consumer product. It’s essential not to overlook these insights and instead explore strategies while thinking creatively. Prioritize the avenues that often go unnoticed as they can still yield significant profits and open doors to prominent retailers, like Home Depot and Lowes.
