goWholesale, a subsidiary of Liquidity Services Inc., is launching an online directory of verified wholesale sources for eBay sellers, entrepreneurs and small businesses looking for wholesale inventory. The directory is the industry's first to provide a rating tool that allows wholesale buyers to post and read reviews about specific vendors in over 30 wholesale-related categories. The directory further places goWholesale as the industry's largest vertical search engine for the wholesale community with targeted content such as Web results, business blogs, news, and wholesale auctions.
In the United States, over 60% of small businesses use search engines to source products and services. The directory provides these users the security of knowing that the vendors are verified, a chance to read posted reviews and ratings, and contact information for each vendor.
After transacting with a vendor, users are able to post reviews and rate the vendor based on Customer Service, Price, Quality, and Overall satisfaction. This provides the goWholesale community of users with information to make educated decisions for selecting sources of inventory.
"The key to success for many entrepreneurs such as eBay sellers is having a core list of vendors that provide consistent inventory for the lowest cost," said Asad Haroon, General Manager of goWholesale. "For entrepreneurs such as eBay PowerSellers, our directory helps to eliminate uncertainty and enables sellers to quickly identify the best sources of specific products."
Companies benefit from the exposure and validation of being listed in the directory and are provided an opportunity to invite their clients to submit reviews.
goWholesale is launching the directory this week at eBay Live! 2005 in San Jose, California at booth #1508.
