sell.com and Marketplace Manager Team Up to Increase Product Exposure for Merchants
Infopia's Product Exposure Service is Enhanced by Listing Products for Sale on sell.com's New Non-Auction Marketplace.
Salt Lake City, February 20, 2002 - Infopia, Inc., developer of Marketplace ManagerTM, the first intelligent online product exposure and customer acquisition service, announced the addition of sell.com to its comprehensive list of online marketplaces where merchants can place their inventory for sale. A relatively new marketplace, sell.com launched its unique online commerce forum for businesses and consumers in September of 2001 and is experiencing tremendous growth.
The addition of sell.com allows Infopia to continue to boast the largest quantity and variety of such sites including eBay, Yahoo!, Amazon, uBid and others. Marketplace Manager allows merchants to expose their products and brands to active online shoppers on these sites while managing the entire selling process using artificial intelligence and automation.
Unlike traditional online auctions, sell.com offers buyers and sellers a private negotiation forum for online commerce. Listings on sell.com may run for 90 days and allow sellers to make multiple sales with a single listing. In addition, sellers can post basic listings and images for free and incur a fee only if their item sells.
"sell.com has introduced an exciting new alternative for buying and selling online," said Bjorn Espenes, CEO of Infopia. "Adding sell.com helps us with our mission to continue providing merchants with the best way to acquire new customers while exposing their products and brand name in as many different ways and places as possible."
"sell.com welcomes Infopia's merchants to our negotiation marketplace," says Darren Dittrich, President and CEO of sell.com. "Infopia's merchants will be able to expand their reach via our one-on-one negotiation forum, while supplying our marketplace with valuable products for buyers."
