• “fast” order fulfillment and delivery.

• optimized product listings and content for each channel,
• real-time inventory access,
• performance tracking and trended guidance,
• pricing analysis and competitive insights,
• sales process management across marketplaces and channels, and;
• compliance expertise enabling brands to sell direct to major retailers.
