Website Spotlight: Vendoo

 I recently had a chance to learn about Vendoo, a platform designed to make it easy to crosspost inventory. You can learn more in this interview.

Why was Vendoo created?

1. Vendoo is a software that was created to solve the daily pain points of the millions of sellers in the steadily growing reselling industry. Our goal is to save sellers time and help them make more money. The user friendly interface allows sellers to crosspost their items onto multiple marketplaces in a fraction of the time that it takes to do so manually. Users can currently list items onto nine marketplaces, including eBay, Poshmark, Etsy, Mercari, Facebook Marketplace and more.

How does it help fill a niche in today's world?

The reselling industry has exploded over the past five years. New marketplaces are emerging quickly and the concept of reselling is becoming much more mainstream. Reselling is becoming a legitimate form of secondary (or even primary) income for many Americans, similarly to the emergence of Uber and AirBnb. Large fashion corporations like Levi’s and Gucci have also begun to move into the second-hand and vintage space, which is an indication that this industry is set to skyrocket in the near future. Vendoo is positioned to help these new resellers maximize the potential of running a business in this growing industry.

What sets it apart from other options?

Vendoo's software is different from other options because we also provide other conveniences for sellers in addition to crossposting. We allow sellers to easily import their existing listings so they don't have to recreate them. Vendoo also can delist and relist items with one click which is helpful when refreshing stale inventory or removing sold items, and we also offer inventory management features like easy sorting and searching. One of the main things that sets us apart is that we also provide sellers with business data and analytics (like revenue and marketplace performance reports) to help them make calculated decisions to grow their business.
