@bentossell Hi Ben.. The thought with Karosell is to first make people realize that they can sell things like accessories, watches, handbags, books, sports item, dumbbells etc. And then show them an avenue to do that i.e Karosell. Now in terms of Customer Value we offer:
1. Verified & well defined products.
2. Social selling- People sell to people they know.
3. Review driven platform.
4. Payments & shipping.
Currently our focusing on India market where there is no clear market leader in this space. We are also figuring out ways that will help us add a local flavor that give us an edge.
I would say we are in a learning stage and your question made me think how we can encourage people to use it globally. This is something we are working on.
@anshul7000 Yeah I think you have tough competition globally as people can already do those things on similar.
Maybe while focusing on India you will find some room for innovtion
@bentossell Yes Ben I think there are more challenges in India in terms of reusability of goods which gives us a good opportunity. And yeah I also think India would be large enough market to cater too.
@johnrwhaley@bentossell Hey John.. As per human behavior when we happen to meet/chat a stranger & somehow find a common connect (a mutual friend) there is a mental shift that happens. Maybe some amount of trust is developed or depending upon the mutual connect.
Similarly our social selling feature will help build a trust factor between the seller and buyer who are complete strangers. They can know if they have any mutual friends. This increased trust factor will also help in more conversions.
Since it's focusing on India, I believe KaroSell should work to be the first destination for all the original Indian stuff, maybe try to offer exclusive access to some life style items, that aren't yet available on other marketplaces?
@mouadmohssine Hey Mouad we are doing tie-ups as well with artisans to get the exclusive products on our platform & also provide an avenue for artisans to make their products available to a larger audience. Thanks for your suggestion :). Please let me know for anything more!
@d3f3nd0r Hi Suman.. We are working towards providing verified products with shipping & payments. That will be the major differentiator for now.
Also our focus is India market where we are adding local flavor that will give us an edge.
