In under 12 months, Sportsfinda have signed 25 Australian SMB's to their sports-dedicated online marketplace, generating thousands of dollars for the businesses involved and ensuring the continued presence of the innovative platform in the online retail industry.
With a flood of larger online marketplaces suffering slumps in recent months, it's exciting to see that niche platforms like Sportsfinda are cornering a market and gaining more attention and more action than ever before.
Thousands of visitors have graced the pages of Sportsfinda over the past year and those figures are growing daily.
Australian entrepreneur and sports enthusiast Ahmad Elhawli launched Sportsfinda as an antidote to the larger, increasingly congested online marketplaces where consumers run the risk of feeling lost in a sea of poor quality products of questionable origin.
The reception to Sportsfinda has been exceptionally strong as consumers and vendors alike embrace the easy-to-use site which is dedicated to selling both new and used sporting goods.
Mr Elhawli explained how Sportsfinda.com.au is revolutionising the way in which Australians source and sell sporting goods, "As a sporting nation, it makes sense to have new and used sporting equipment and clothing in one place to make the buying and selling process easier for all Aussies.
Sportsfinda is indeed appealing to those who like a simpler online retail experience and by streamlining the process, it also eliminates the problems faced on larger platforms by people trying to buy or sell a specific sporting item.
Sportsfinda only advertises sports-related items and it also ensures that businesses selling on the site are within Australia, thereby eliminating a huge logistical problem.
People can buy confidently, knowing that their goods are not going to be shipped from the other side of the world. This is a big issue for many consumers but one often ignored by larger marketplaces.
With Sportsfinda, consumers and businesses alike know that they're dealing with people within Australia and that the buying and shipping process will be simple, safe and predictable.
The second-hand marketplace is growing exponentially too as more and more people seek to live a more ethical and sustainable lifestyle and this is celebrated and encouraged by Sportsfinda who screen every single used item listed on the site to ensure that quality remains paramount.
As the owner of the highly successful digital marketing agency businesswilderness.com, Mr Elhawli's background in marketing will ensure that Sportsfinda's goal of having 500 businesses signed up within the first 3 years comes to fruition.
With a strong emphasis on ensuring the growth of the businesses involved, Sportsfinda is dedicated to providing Australian businesses with new means to reach their customers in a cost-effective manner and to helping Australian consumers who'd like to make some extra cash and live more sustainably, along the way.
Currently, businesses and customers can sign up for free with Sportsfinda's free package.
