Medisana sells on around 30 marketplaces across Europe. In Benelux, however, the brand first had to learn how high Dutch customers' expectations for delivery times really are. Ingrid and Valerie talk with Martijn Paas, who knows Medisana's marketplace business inside out from his time in the Benelux team, and Patricia Lay, who helps international sellers get started on bol.
In this episode:
Why moving the top sellers to bol's logistics service increased turnover fivefold, according to Martijn
How Medisana found the right logistics provider after a partner went bankrupt
How the vendor and seller businesses run in parallel – and why your own resellers can turn into competitors
What customers in Benelux expect beyond fast delivery
Why you should realistically expect at least a year before seeing success
This episode is for every brand looking to enter Benelux via bol.
