Do you want to find FSC-certified buyers and suppliers? Are you looking for ways to increase your sales and strengthen your business? FSC Marketplace is a global business-to-business product finder platform created for FSC certificate holders. The primary objectives of the site are to: - Connect buyers and suppliers within the FSC supply chain
- Increase the value of FSC certification for Certificate Holders
- Increase the global market for FSC certified products
Wherever you fall in the supply chain, FSC Marketplace is a valuable tool for you to find FSC products and promote and strengthen your business. One of the values of the site is the ability of all businesses — from architects and contractors to manufacturers and distributors — to use the site in a way that fits with their needs. Once it is fully populated with products and companies, FSC Marketplace will be a one-stop shop for all of the FSC certified products you need. And for suppliers, FSC Marketplace is a customizable marketing platform that enables you to increase visibility and sales and strengthen the FSC portion of your business. How can you use Marketplace?
There are two primary ways to use FSC Marketplace: to find products and to market products. To find products, all you have to do is register at marketplace.fsc.org. Once your registration is activated you can conduct simple and advanced searches for FSC products. You can refine your search using a variety of criteria, ranging from product classification and supply chain position to geographic location. To activate your profile and market your own FSC certified products, you can request access to a specific certificate during the registration process. After retrieving your unique activation code, you can then start to build your business profile and begin marketing your company to FSC Marketplace users. Each profile can be customized, allowing Certificate Holders to control the amount of company and product information listed. If you are looking to differentiate your products, you can upgrade to a “Premium” profile. With Premium membership, you can share detailed contact information, upload your company’s logo and have your company prioritized in search results. The annual fee for Premium profiles is $250. Stay tuned for more information on banner advertising, which is expected to be available in late summer 2012. Whether you are a supplier or a buyer purchasing finished products, FSC Marketplace can connect you with other businesses, save you time and money, and help you bring in new business. Go to marketplace.fsc.org today! Sign up as a basic user and begin searching for FSC-certified products. Build your profile and start using FSC Marketplace to market your products and increase your sales. Refer your clients and colleagues to FSC Marketplace. Sign up for Premium membership to get the most out of this platform and differentiate your products from that of competitors. If you have any questions about FSC Marketplace, or if you are interested in signing up for premium registration, email Eliza Roberts, FSC-US Marketplace Manager at e.roberts@us.fsc.org.
