MoonBuzz Expands Online Sales Management Services for Corporate Clients
MoonBuzz, the online sales management solution for corporate clients, has announced a partnership with Carolina Logistics Services (CLS) that further extends MoonBuzz's service offering and simplifies the way large companies do business on the Internet. Companies looking for outsourced fulfillment capabilities now have the option of consigning inventory through direct physical delivery of goods to MoonBuzz. As an agent, MoonBuzz then sells these products on behalf of the client and ships them through CLS's national network of warehouses directly to end consumers.
``We are excited about being part of the MoonBuzz solution for corporate inventory liquidation,'' said Mark Doughton, president of CLS. ``Our 21 warehousing and fulfillment centers are ideally located to service the growing list of MoonBuzz clients.''
With this partnership, MoonBuzz is now the first and only auction service provider to offer manufacturers a cost-effective full-service online inventory liquidation solution, removing the barriers that large companies typically face when selling goods at high volume over the Internet. A unique combination of services, consulting and technology is allowing MoonBuzz to open the online sales channel for major corporate clients including KitchenAid (a division of Whirlpool Corporation), Compaq, Xerox, 3Com and many others.
``MoonBuzz makes the online sales process seamless,'' said Paul McGladrigan, manager of direct Sales and e-commerce for KitchenAid Appliances. ``This new warehousing and logistics capability is one of the things that makes MoonBuzz so attractive to us.''
``We make it easy for major corporations to sell their products through a network of established Internet sites such as eBay, half.com and Yahoo!,'' said Patrick Vaughn, CEO of MoonBuzz. ``Our clients can sell anonymously (under the MoonBuzz brand) or promote their own corporate identity (using custom branded templates) and we manage the entire process: generating product templates, scheduling items for sale, handling the customer service and payment processing, and now even warehousing and performing pick/pack/ship activities. Our clients simply tell us what products they want to sell and in what quantities, and we take care of the rest. Whether using MoonBuzz systems to ship from their own warehouse or sending pallets of merchandise to one of the MoonBuzz locations for fulfillment, companies can now take advantage of the only truly comprehensive and seamless online solution for maximizing returns on their excess inventory.''
