The Supermarket online has been trading for 16 months. The company has 10 specialist websites, each catering for a different niche market. The main website www.theofficesuppliessupermarket.com website stocks over 25,000 office supplies.
Record sales have been achieved through the office supplies site every month for the past six months. This success is backed by heavy promotion with over 3 million people a month seeing the company’s online adverts. The company sends out over 50,000 emails a month to potential customers and they are appearing in position 4 of Google for the keyphrase “office supplies”.
Orders placed on the site are fulfilled by Regional Partners spread throughout the UK each of which has their own delivery territory. This localised distribution ensures that 98% of the goods can be shipped the next day for orders placed before 6pm. The following is an actual customer review:
“Great range, and quick service - ordered goods about 1pm and part of the order arrived next morning, the rest on following day without paying for any special delivery options.”
The unparalleled customer service offering comes from the training supermarket staff receive. There are 10 product managers, each of whom are responsible for a section of the product range so they can develop expert knowledge of the products, current offers and what customers want. These product managers meet with the suppliers to talk about the latest products and innovations to ensure that the products are promoted effectively.
The company are the first in the
office supplies marketplace to offer their customers the ability to have a live online chat with an advisor. This service came from a recognition that many office workers who purchase stationery online also have to field phone calls. By providing this ‘on demand’ customer service option supermarket fits in with the busy schedules of their target customer base. It’s testament to the quality of the company’s overall offering that Customer retention continues to grow month on month with over 30% of site visitors being returning customers.
Superstat are the ‘European dealer group of the year’ and have been helping office supplies dealers grow their businesses for 17 years. As part of the Superstat group, Supermarket are able to purchase stock at massively discounted rates. Supermarkets online prices are checked each week to ensure they are competitive using a range of technical solutions and reporting tools.
The websites are structured to allow quick access to the best selling product lines easily though the main ‘mega menu’. This menu also serves as additional advertising space with relevant offers displayed to customers as they browse through it. To compliment the main navigation, visitors are offered a guided search which allows them to narrow down a wide search such as “A4 paper” using product attributes such as brand and price.
The Key thing to remember about Supermarket is that all of this success has been achieved within 16 months. Sales during the last 6 months have considerably exceeded the sales made during the preceding 12 months and this trend looks set to continue.
