Product Syncing Service for Sales Reps

What Is The Product Syncing Service?

The Product Syncing service is a marketing tool to promote your products to existing and potential clients. Your business can store and share thousands of products (with pictures, prices, and descriptions) with your retailers.

Your retailers can use these products to power their websites and gift registries. You control how your products appear and are organized on your retailers' websites.

Currently, 111 brands promote 65,198 products on 1,068 retailers' websites.

Benefits:

Reps using Product Syncing sell 18% more—and make 18% more in commission. Read the case study about the 18% sales boost here.
Increase the quantity of your product offered online by your retailers.
Get new customers. Increase the number of outlets selling your products.
Make reordering easier for your stores. Retailers that use Bridge Store will see your business name and contact information at the top of their Store for your respective brands.
Know what is selling on your retailers' websites. Learn about orders in real-time as they are made.
View price updates and news from brands in one spot vs. having to visit each brand's website.
Control how your brands are presented online.
FREE for sales reps.

Sell More

How do you get retailers to sell more? To sell more, retailers need to show more products online. Bridge's Product Syncing service makes this possible.

FAQ

How will you make more money with Bridge?
You make more in commission because retailers sell 18% on average more due to Bridge (Read the case study here).

How will a sale be made?

  1. The consumer purchases an item on a retailer's site. The retailer receives an email notification about this order.
  2. The retailer looks at its inventory. If it has the item in stock, it ships what is in stock. If the item is not in stock, the retailer will place the order with you or the brand, whichever is your existing protocol with the retailer.

Does a Product Syncing Brand have to drop-ship?
No, a Product Syncing Brand does not have to drop-ship to participate. If a brand drop-ships, then a retailer may ask the brand to drop-ship an order. If the brand does not drop-ship, they will mail the item to the retailer, and then the retailer will mail it to the customer.

How does the Product Syncing service deal with minimum order requirements?
If a retailer has a Bridge order in hand and it does not have the item in stock, it will first assess if the order is over the minimum reorder amount. If it's over the minimum reorder amount, the retailer may place the order as a drop-ship. If the order is under the minimum, the retailer may decide if there are additional products it would like to order. To meet the minimum requirement, the retailer may order more products to fulfill the Bridge order as well as stock its store.
