ChannelAdvisor and ShowMeTheParts have partnered to enable ChannelAdvisor retailers to feed content for the aftermarket vertical into ChannelAdvisor’s platform to start selling on marketplaces and direct channels. 

Retailers also can leverage the ChannelAdvisor Fulfillment Service offering which will automate the fulfillment process with their distribution partners.  This new partnership allows common clients to:

1.         Streamline the process of loading detailed product data to create listings.

2.         Automate the process of updating product data as needed.

3.         Match as much physical inventory to product data as possible.

4.         Enable retailer to list far more products than they could if they had to acquire and inventory the parts onsite.

5.         Participate in this segment and have unique content to differentiate themselves from other listings that all look and appear the exact same way.

6.         To focus more on selling and customer communications.

With the ShowMeTheParts integration clients no longer have to perform the time-consuming tasks of application management of parts. Updated data is automatically pushed to the client’s e-commerce site and displayed to their customer in an SEO and desktop/mobile friendly way.  Allowing clients to focus on more profitable tasks.
