Learn about Your Store
You can think of the Knowde marketplace as a shopping mall, where each Store represents an individual shop within the mall.
Your Knowde Store facilitates direct communication with customers about your business and products. Customers can easily discover and connect with your team through our best-in-class digital shopping experience!
If you have a CXP site, customers can view your company's Store and product pages from your own website, in addition to or instead of on the marketplace. For example, your unique Store could be listed at examplecompany.store.
How Customers Find Your Store
Most commonly, a customer will come across your Store on the Knowde marketplace “organically” through search engines (Google, etc.) as well as using our Knowde search at the top of each page.
The more information that you can provide about the end uses and applications of your products, the more likely your products and Store will be found. When customers search for specific companies, products, or applications, the results surface in order of relevance.
To make your Store more discoverable online, make sure to provide the Knowde Onboarding team with as much product documentation as possible (Technical Data Sheets, Safety Data Sheets, Brochures, Formulations, Certifications, etc.). In addition, enhance your Store's appearance so it feels like a natural extension of your company's branding and customers know exactly where they're shopping!
