Client discussion with Webkul
Mr Mandeep Sodhi owner of Bachchay.com came up to Webkul with an idea to build an online marketplace. Mandeep wants to build a user-friendly interactive webstore so keeping this in mind he chose Magento as the ecommerce platform.
Our client raised a ticket over Webkul support to know about Magento multi-vendor marketplace, and some other essential compatible extensions that are important to create a full-time marketplace store.
Our sales team understood well the requirement asked by our client and helped him by resolving his queries related to various modules before creating the marketplace store.
Creating the Perfect Marketplace
In order to start the marketplace from scratch, our developers started customizing the module with the client’s website. With the help of Magento 2 Multi-Vendor Marketplace, the suppliers/sellers can easily manage the inventory, shipment of products, Seller Profile page and Seller Collection page.
The supplier/seller can add multiple types of products – Simple, Configurable, Virtual & Downloadable.
This extension is supported by many shipping & payment add-ons including FedEx, USPS, DHL, PayPal, Stripe, and Aramex.
After integrating the module with the client’s website, Mandeep inquired about the fulfilment, shipment and regarding advertising of the products within the marketplace.
For Fulfillment of orders like Amazon does-
Fulfillment like Amazon i.e. warehouse management including inventory management and other associated features.
For this, our team recommends Magento 2 Multi-Vendor DropShipping, all the warehouses were managed by the admin. The Admin can add/edit or delete the warehouse if needed and the Buyer can select the shipping method according to Warehouse.
At Bachchay.com you can find the Bachchay fulfillment programme which works a lot like the fulfillment of products like Amazon do.
Shipping similar to Amazon
For this, our team recommends Magento 2 Marketplace Shipping On Per Product, In this, the seller can set the shipping rate per product from the seller end.
The seller can add invoice & packing slip address & also VAT, and TAX information. The invoice & shipping slip can be easily downloadable.
How to Advertised/Sponsored product list
Our team recommends Mandeep regarding Marketplace Advertisement Manager for Magento 2 which allows the sellers to purchase advertisement spaces/blocks and post an advertisement on the website front-end at various different positions/locations.
The sellers can easily create their ad blocks and then can select them for the advertisements space that they wish to book. The seller ad blocks will be visible at the different advertisement space positions on the front-end. Please check this add-on and let us know if you need this functionality.
It’s always a great idea to provide your customers with a variety of products, for this you can provide them with the products listed on your Magento store or the products listed in other stores.
Knowing this and providing the customers with tons of products. Our client raised a query regarding some marketplace connectors modules.
Our sales team suggested the most prominent ones which are:-
Export/Import eBay listing to the marketplace
Magento 2 Marketplace eBay Connector is an add-on for Multi-Vendor Module which allows the seller to import all the eBay products along with gallery images, price, and quantity, to the Magento Marketplace account.
Export/Import Amazon listing to the marketplace
With the help of this Magento 2 Marketplace Amazon Connector, the sellers will be able to connect their Amazon store account with the marketplace store and synchronize products and orders.
A vendor can import and export products between Amazon and Magento marketplace stores. From Magento’s end, the admin and the vendors can update the products on Amazon. The Marketplace Amazon Connector module also works with product variations.
Export/Import Etsy listing to the marketplace
With the help of this Magento 2 Marketplace Etsy Connector, the admin and vendors can connect their Etsy shop with Magento Marketplace. Sync products, categories, and orders between Etsy and Magento 2. Configure default values for Etsy product export listing.
Initiating Membership for Sellers
Mandeep raised a query regarding the membership modules both for sellers and buyers. For the sellers, our sales team suggested the Magento 2 Marketplace Seller group module which allows the admin to categorize sellers into Gold, Platinum, Silver and various other groups.
These Groups will restrict sellers to upload a certain amount of products to their account, e.g. it will limit the number of product uploads. The admin can restrict sellers/vendors based on product quantity & time.
Shipping Methods Implemented
In order to make a successful online store, the store owner needs to implement a couple of essential things, and shipping is one of them. Mandeep knows the importance of shipping as it is a very essential part of the order processing so he asked us for Magento 2 Royal shipping & Table Rate Shipping Marketplace add-on.
Bachchay.com is initially set up in the United Kingdom, so being the centre, the client wants to have the best shipping carrier to be used in their region i.e Royal Mail.
For this, we have suggested him to use our Magento 2 Royal Mail shipping extension for shipping the products domestically and Internationally from the U.K. – United Kingdom. By using this module, you can provide Royal Mail shipping to your customers.
Table Rate Shipping makes it possible for sellers to create complex rules for shipping their products worldwide.
They can define multiple rates based on the product’s destination, can have multiple rates per zone, and also can add rules based on product weight, the number of items, shipping class, and price.
Fast Delivery Options
Mandeep knows the importance of delivering products/services that imbibe speed and quality in equal measure. Simply have realized that speedy delivery is the key factor to boost up E-commerce sales.
So in order to facilitate the fast delivery options, Mandeep discussed the respective customization with our sales team. For setting up the delivery options- You can select any shipping method from the admin panel for the membership, and only that shipping method will be displayed.
Optimized Navigation
To provide a user-friendly experience to the customers feature like layer navigation is a must to add. For this, we recommended our client go for the Magento 2 Advanced Layered Navigation module which is used to optimize and improve the navigation of the webstore.
It’s designed to find products based on Color, condition, price, and other attributes very easily. Using this module you can filter multiple attributes and attribute values at a time.
Return Products & Orders
Return, exchange & cancellation is a part of ecommerce orders. In order to make a perfect marketplace, Mandeep asked for an RMA module which is super useful for product returns and order returns between buyer and seller.
In this, the buyer can easily generate RMA for the refund and replace it, the seller, can do the full or partial refund and much more.
Adaptive Payment Method
Mandeep asked for some of the most prominent payment methods to be used in the online store, and we suggested to him the Paypal Adaptive Payment method which splits the payment from the customers between the seller and the admin automatically which will be hassle-free for both admin as well as for the seller.
Current Status of the Website
At present Bachchay.com is running live and making profits, they are among one of the most prominent eCommerce online store based in greater London.
Till now Mandeep team is connected with us, for support services as well as for querying on our latest developed modules in order to check their compatibility with bachchay.com, so as to step apart from the existing competition in their region.
