B2B – Helping Companies to Connect

Selling products and/or services via online channels like esources, though slightly complex, is better than selling directly to private consumers. 

It is just not about having an uncommon approach; rather, it is leveraging a whole range of advantages that an entrepreneur can stand to gain.

1. Long term partnership
In a B2B partnership, a seller or a buyer is committed to you through contracts and agreements. This simply means lower acquisition costs and long term relationships. 

2. Transparent structure and two-way shopping
Since purchases are routed through company protocols, different departments can place items in a common shopping cart, which is overseen by the appropriate purchase department. The process of purchase is clearly defined making for transparent decisions for both parties.

3. Sophisticated audience
Unlike in a B2C environment, business-to-business consumer is sophisticated and unemotional in approach. This means, the buyer is well versed with the detailed specification(s) of the product and is unlikely to compromise on them at any cost. 
But let us now come to the core part.

B2B websites like esources offer an all-inclusive solution to international or national trading with all the required tools.

The IT segment was considered relevant only for technical minded entities, but with the advent of B2B portals, trading online has expanded across all business segments- big, medium, or small. Entrepreneurs are finding this platform very cost effective and a fast way to conduct global trade. 

B2B has also opened up another vista for companies. They can organize trade shows that can bring thousands of buyers and sellers from a specific industrial segment under one roof. 

In a trade show, suppliers can communicate with buyers on a one to one basis and appreciate what their needs are. 
As per an esources.co.uk review, the portal has thousands of registered members allowing companies very wide exposure.
