Marketplaces
Marketplaces are the future of global trade
Marketplaces are platforms where sellers and buyers can interact with each other and conduct transactions. In the midst of the global crisis caused by the coronavirus pandemic, marketplaces are becoming increasingly popular as they offer a range of benefits for both parties involved. On one hand, sellers can expand their market, increase sales, and reduce costs by utilizing the ready-made infrastructure and services of the marketplace. On the other hand, buyers gain access to a wide range of goods and services, can compare prices and quality, and enjoy guarantees and fraud protection provided by the marketplace. Marketplaces also contribute to the development of the digital economy, innovation, and competition, thereby aiding in recovery from the crisis.
However, marketplaces also face a number of challenges such as regulation, taxation, data protection, quality and reputation management, as well as conflicts of interest between the platform and participants. Therefore, for marketplaces to function successfully, it is necessary to consider the interests of all stakeholders and establish balanced market rules.
Existing marketplaces have several drawbacks that may diminish the effectiveness and profitability of selling goods and services online. One of the main drawbacks is the high level of commissions charged to sellers for posting ads, processing payments, delivery, and other services. This reduces the profitability of sellers and increases prices for buyers. Additionally, many marketplaces have a limited target audience, which depends on region, product category, brand, and other factors. This decreases sellers’ chances of finding suitable buyers and increases competition. Another drawback is the lack of auction functionality, which allows sellers to set a minimum price for their goods and receive offers from interested buyers. This can help sellers get a better price for their goods and increase demand. Other drawbacks of existing marketplaces may include: low quality of goods and services, lack of guarantees and returns, complexity of use and navigation, insufficient security and data protection, low level of customer trust and loyalty.
