Toynk Toys Expands to Nearly 20 Global Marketplaces
Toynk Toys, a retailer of toys and costumes, started in 2001 by selling products on eBay and its own website. But as the business grew — and the number of marketplaces they listed products on increased — so did headaches of inventory management. Eventually, Toynk turned to ChannelAdvisor Marketplaces to streamline the process of marketplace selling and expand internationally. Toynk now sells on nearly 20 global marketplaces with plans for even more expansion. Find out how they did it in this video.

Partner Spotlight
Retailers selling on marketplaces are usually focused on the elementary keys to success, such as competitive pricing, affiliate advertising, and site promotions. But there’s another crucial factor that’s often forgotten: building a strategic partnership with your marketplace. ASICS, the popular shoe manufacturer, did just this and achieved significant year over year growth on the Rakuten marketplace. Check out this guest blog from ChannelAdvisor partner Rakuten.com, Merchants: What’s Missing from Your Marketplace Strategy, to learn more.
