Goal

To help small, medium and enterprise-sized online retailers learn more about their competition so they can sell more units, stay price-competitive, and increase margins against major online threats like Google Shopping and Amazon.com.

Customer Description

In the retail industry, staying competitive means having continuous knowledge of competitor’s prices, inventory, brands and promotions. The online retail market is very competitive.Google Shop and Amazon have mastered online eCommerce and typically sells their products quicker with faster shipping times. For retailers, knowledge of changes in the market landscape allows for quick and strategic action to better grow and protect their position in the market.

Customer Need

A large North American retailer approached Liberty Metrics with a business challenge. They needed an automated online solution which compares prices across 20+ competitor sites. Thankfully they had a SKU (stock keeping units) list, but manually checking prices daily was not sustainable and we need to find an alternative way.

Liberty Metrics Solution

We provided our client with a fully hosted solution with seamless integration via a feed. Within one day we were able to search over 50,000 products which would have taken months to do manually. Like clockwork, the file was delivered every morning with a detailed margin report. Our client was impressed with our reliability, attention to detail, high quality standards, and flexibility.

Benefits

Our client have integrated our feeds directly into their pricing management system. Each day without fail their prices are automatically adjusted. Consumers are savvy and aren’t afraid to do research until they can find the best price. For our client, this is no longer a concern.

Measureable Results
