• What is B2B e-commerce?

B2B e-commerce is the online version of the traditional B2B structure. With B2B e-commerce, companies aim to make the order and sales processes more efficient, move these processes online, sell over the internet, and minimize the time spent in the sales process—escaping the months-long phone and email traffic typical of traditional B2B.

• How is B2B e-commerce done?

To sell online through B2B e-commerce, you first need to identify your company’s needs. Since B2B e-commerce systems can be structured differently to accommodate each business, determining your needs helps speed up your transition to B2B e-commerce.

To get started with B2B e-commerce, you first need to set up a website. On this website, you can:

Showcase your products and create catalogs,

Allow your dealers and customers to place orders,

Enable your field sales team to collect orders via mobile devices,

Manage your collections.

It is possible to develop software from scratch to manage all these processes and more. However, the time lost in software development can also mean lost orders for your business each day. To minimize this loss, switching to the infrastructure of an existing software provider can save you a significant amount of time.
