ChannelAdvisor’s 2016 Spring Release brings the expanding world of e-commerce into focus for brands and retailers. E-commerce is expansive, competitive, fragmented and complex. This presents growing challenges, and the key to success is innovative technology to help brands and retailers zero in on the essential strategies for their businesses.

“We’ve been working on a number of exciting new products and enhancements to continue helping our customers create a favorable consumer experience across sales channels,” said ChannelAdvisor CEO David Spitz. “We’re excited to help branded manufacturers build stronger strategic connections to retailers and equip our customers with the data, analytics and dashboards needed to make smarter decisions when managing their digital marketing campaigns. At our Catalyst Americas conference, we officially announced our strategic partnership with Walmart Marketplace to help facilitate rapid acceleration of sellers and selection on the marketplace.”

Highlights from ChannelAdvisor’s 2016 Spring Release:

Branded Manufacturers in Focus

• Buy Local, part of the ChannelAdvisor Where to Buy product line, enables consumers on a brand’s website to quickly find brick-and-mortar stores in a certain geographic area that have products in stock.
• ChannelAdvisor’s Product Intelligence offering helps brands track and manage where their products are being sold, how they are being priced and the quality of the product content to ensure a consistent experience for shoppers across all channels.

Digital Marketing in Focus

• ChannelAdvisor Digital Marketing Benchmarking is an extension of the benchmarking suite for Marketplaces launched in 2015. It allows brands and retailers to compare the effectiveness of their Google Shopping campaigns across a number of key metrics.
