Send and receive invoices and documentation between buyers and suppliers with the Invoice API
ShipServ presents two new services to help suppliers increase the visibility and exposure of their profiles.
What is the purpose of a Premium Profile?
A ShipServ Premium Profile is your 24/7 connection to buyers, requisitioners and other end users in the commercial marine industry. It is designed to do the following:
-
Attract attention to your company when a user is performing a search.
-
Give the user a reason to click on your profile from a list of choices.
-
Create a positive experience that leads to a success event, such as contacting you, adding you to an RFQ, or adding your named product to a requisition.
Challenges to creating a good profile
How does one make an effective profile? As with a website, it takes an understanding of the information one is trying to communicate, and the ability to convey that information in a clear, relevant way. Unfortunately, some companies purchase ShipServ premium profiles and try to fill out the online screens, but the result does not reflect the strengths of the advertiser. Or they just do not know where to start to make a good profile.
Profile Editing Service
ShipServ Premium Profiles will include as part of the standard list package for all new advertisers: Instructional video on creating an effective profile.
-
Customized annual profile review with scoring system.
-
Comparison with company website (if applicable)
-
Suggestions for improvement of text, additional information, categories, brands, etc
