The Internet has changed the way many people shop, but that doesn’t mean brick-and-mortar stores have lost steam. In fact, manufacturers who embrace the new shopping trends have a business edge. Compared with customers who shop only at stores, multichannel shoppers buy 12% more often, and spend 32% more every year. That’s good news, if you ride the trend. And you can. With Product Locator, we’ll help you tap into multiple sales channels, increasing opportunities for additional sales, and expanding your brand recognition.
When a shopper visiting your website is ready to buy, the issue becomes where to buy. This is a bad time to drop the ball. So don’t. With Product Locator, your shoppers will learn exactly where to buy your products, either online or locally. And since this dealer locator solution is integrated into your company’s website, fully branded to your look and feel, they will always sense your presence. It’s sort of like being each shopper’s guardian angel.
Product Locator consists of three modules:
Buy Online
The Buy Online Locator module helps shoppers easily find online retailers that have your products in stock. Neat concept if you plan to make online sales. From your product page, shoppers can easily access a list and select an authorized online retailer. Once they reach the retailer’s website, it would be silly to make shoppers search for your product all over again. So we don’t. Instead, we take them directly to your product. And while we’re at it, we also collect valuable customer information.

Buy Locally
The Retail Locator module helps visitors to your website quickly find authorized dealers, distributors, or retail locations that stock your product. It even provides driving directions. You probably already have the information - it’s in your supply chain management, ERP or ship to databases. So let us help you share it with shoppers. Go ahead, make a sale.

Reserve Locally
Reserve Locally is a fast and easy way for shoppers to reserve or purchase products for in-store pick up at their nearest local retailer – directly through a manufacturer’s website. A consumer may research a product on a manufacturer’s site and use the store locator to find where it may be purchased locally. However, once the consumer leaves the store locator, there’s no good way to track conversion. Questions like: Did the customer go to the store and purchase the product? Did they purchase another product in the store? What store did they choose? Did they abandon the store locator entirely and not purchase anything, much like an abandoned on-line shopping cart? Reserve Locally was designed to “close-the-loop” between a prospective customer’s on-line research and in-store pickup. While many products are researched on line, over 95% of shopping still occurs off line. Reserve Locally was designed to track and increase brick-and-mortar conversion rates.
Reporting
The reporting module gives you valuable insight into the traffic you refer to your Channel Partners. This is really useful stuff. You can sort reports by any date range. Interesting. You can see the number of impressions, click-throughs, and percentage of click throughs. Helpful. You can even see the dollar value of those click-throughs by product and by eTailer. Priceless.
