Taleam’s CEO Says Tech Companies in Canada Are Struggling, Voices Support

Tech companies are struggling even more due to the peak economic effect in Canada. This is true for a tech company in Ottawa where the CEO of Taleam Systems is based. He says that his tech company is voicing support due to the peak effect.

With the continuation of the Covid-19 pandemic in Canada, many tech companies based in Canada are struggling and may face financial decline and this is according to the CEO of Taleam Systems, Melad Ahmadzai. He says, “Many companies might close down due to pandemic dragging on and current economic conditions in the country.” He further says, “During this month, we also saw gas prices that reached the highest record at above $2 dollars per litre.”

The federal government promised to support small businesses, however, according to Ahmadzai, “the reality is that many companies are going out of business and not able to stand on two feet.” Ahmadzai says “this is the worst time for tech companies in Canada like Taleam Systems to keep operations running,” referring to the now peak economic effect that is dragging on.

Taleam Systems has been in operation since 2011. Ahmadzai states, “customers are the single most important asset for any business. They are crucial for driving revenue and long-term success.”

About The Copper Mark
The Copper Mark is an assurance framework to promote responsible practices and demonstrate the copper industry’s contribution to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

The Copper Mark framework involves a robust three-year re-evaluation process conducted by independent external auditors at site-level for participants. Participants commit to continual improvement, building the management systems necessary to ensure ongoing legal compliance. To achieve Copper Mark verification, operations also need to demonstrate efforts to achieve Free, Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC) and maintain trusted, collaborative relationships with local Indigenous communities.

Windsor, CO Tech Based Company Has Set Out to Help Local Businesses Nationwide.

The story behind the new DIY Marketing Platform that’s dedicated in helping local businesses all around the US.

The journey to help local businesses started when Rob Downey, a Serial Entrepreneur; and Local Marketing Expert, explored how well Dean Koehler’s local business in Windsor, CO, was being found by voice search (Siri, Alexa, Google Assistant…). Rob had been urging Dean to be promoting his business through specific online techniques. But like most local business owners, he was too busy working the business rather than finding time to do marketing and advertising online.

Rob being an expert in Local SEO- had been trying to figure out a way to make things easy and without a substantial time commitment for local businesses to better position themselves in their service area. After discovering not being found on the voice search, Dean commented, “I cannot believe that I am not the number one positioned business on the search while standing in my own front office. Let alone not being found on by the search at all!” Which was his aha moment about Local SEO value.

Rob understood that business owners didn’t like to give up control about how their business was represented in advertising and marketing media of any kind. “The online promotion to improve Local SEO for any business has to be easy with a nearly zero learning curve. The business owner also doesn’t have the time to study the ins and outs of online marketing,” said Rob.

“I also made assumptions that most business owners would be around 50 years of age, and technology is not their strongest suit. I realized this is about 2008 and have been thinking for a long time about this issue.” Rob added.

The results from questioning business owners like Dean and many others is that they want to be guided or told what and when to take the actions needed to help their Local SEO. Thus, the creation of the to-do list which is a proprietary algorithm that looks at each business and the competition in each unique service area to determine the actions needed.

“Every time a business owner logs into the platform, they are met with the to-do list informing them about all the actions needed to be completed. It ranges from letting them know there are new reviews or questions from customers to the recommended photos and posts.” Commented Rob. He added, “Our members are even reminded to add special or holiday hours that they could be closed like the 4th of July. Small pieces like this are so critical for the local business owner to do so that their customers are always aware of the business’s status.”

When this all clicked for Dean, they started collaborating about how to accomplish this much needed process for all local businesses. They started laying out the groundwork to build a marketing platform from the ground up that is designed to be simple for any business owner or staff to use with an almost zero learning curve.

They started by looking at what action items could put on the to-do list that would bring the most value to local business owners and could be automated. They also wanted the proprietary algorithm to learn about each members unique business over time and analyze what is working for other members in that same industry. Additionally, to understand what is working for the business’s competition and be reactive to guide the member in their next to-do list.

The result was Simply Be Found, the new unique DIY Marketing Platform designed to help business owners get found by spending about an hour a week using it and completing easy-to-understand tasks on their to-do list was born. As a member of Simply Be Found, the system advertises their businesses in over 50 places and gets them found on voice search and within local search. With the help of our DIY Marketing Platform, businesses can generate more reviews about their company while monitoring and replying to them simultaneously. Businesses that want to tap into all the advantages available to members may even get a website built, hosted, and updated without requiring additional costs. Or they may use their current website and add Simply Be Found to their marketing efforts.

They also threw out this interesting fact- studies have shown that 70% of businesses are not getting found on Local SEO, which today gets compared with the yellow pages. Local SEO is how you get found on local listings, voice searches, and motivated customers looking for your products or services.

Rob and Dean are so confident in the Simply Be Found marketing platform and being to help your business that they challenge you to use it, and if you don’t see results in 90 days, they said they will give you a full refund. Visit SimplyBeFound.com to learn more.

How Tradefull’s Tech is Making Logistics Easier for eCommerce Companies

The eCommerce landscape is changing. While it was already headed for growth, the global pandemic pushed more consumers to adopt the process of buying online. Which means one thing-retailers have to adapt to this boom in growth or get left behind by the competition.

However, even the most skilled companies cannot handle everything themselves. With worker shortages, increased transportation costs, and supply chain issues, having a separate solution to handle specific elements of your operations is important.

And that’s where Tradefull comes in. As a complete eCommerce solution, they help online brands solve challenging problems like warehousing, order management, logistics, and a whole lot more.

Here’s what you need to know about why Tradefull is important to brands and how their tech is making logistics easier for eCommerce companies.

What is Tradefull?

Before we can dive into how they help businesses, let’s first take a look at what Tradefull is and the story behind it.

As a complete eCommerce solutions platform, Tradefull’s technology provides tons of features and businesses to help online brands thrive. Their technology helps with a range of ecommerce services, from marketplace support, warehousing, shipment management, and dropshipping to full-service marketing support.

Through Tradefull experts, brands are able to expand operations and streamline processes for better workflows and results.

How do they know so much about the industry? The founders behind Tradefull were one of the first third-party sellers on Amazon. Through that experience with a global retail marketplace, they were able to evolve into helping smaller brands see growth to the eCommerce solutions they now offer.

How Their Tech Plays a Role

Part of what makes Tradefull stand out from the competition is their technology that can help with nearly every aspect of shipping and logistics. You can use some of their technology platforms a la carte, or you can utilize Tradefull as a complete line of third-party logistics (3PL) services.

Complete eCommerce Management System

Tradefull’s unique eCommerce dashboard makes running an online retail business easier than ever before. With integration to over forty of the top online sales marketplaces, sellers can now be in more places at once by using this tool.

If that wasn’t good enough, what takes things even further is that Tradefull seamlessly syncs data between products listed on multiple websites, including Amazon.com, Walmart.com, eBay, and others. When you change information on one item, it intuitively does the same for all marketplace platforms.

The end result? More streamlined workflows that make it easier for eCommerce teams to operate in multiple trusted marketplaces across the web. And that translates to more customers and increased profits.

Top-Notch Warehouse Management System

Let’s say that a brand has their own fulfillment centers and doesn’t need 3PL services. In that case, Tradefull works as a robust warehouse management system.

From tracking items within the current inventory to running comprehensive reports that offer insight into the bestselling items, retailers can keep tabs on everything going on inside of their warehouse.

To help managers, Tradefull also provides insight into sales trends that affect warehouse staffing. When a company knows exactly how many team members they need on-site to fulfill orders, they can make better staffing and scheduling decisions to save money.

What’s even better for eCommerce companies is that Tradefull’s 3PL program typically offers better two-day shipping rates than they could obtain on their own. By simply opting to outsource these costs and duties, online brands can save a ton of time and financial resources.

Complete Order Management System

Tradefull also works as a complete order management system for eCommerce brands. What does this mean? When a customer places an order on any of the supported marketplaces, it is instantly reflected in the dashboard.

From there, brands can use automated tools to track orders, handle fulfillment, and respond to customer service inquiries. The tool can also help with returns and shipping notifications.

What’s even better is that Tradefull seamlessly integrates with many of the most popular online store platforms, including Shopify, BigCommerce, Woocommerce, and others. Through these integrations, brands have access to in-depth reports about shoppers including data like when they’re making purchases, what they’re buying, and the most popular items within the whole inventory.

Product Information Management the Easy Way

Another area where Tradefull is especially useful is their product information management (PIM) capabilities. This allows retailers to update item descriptions, photos, shipping information, barcodes, and more across multiple platforms at one time.

From a workflow perspective, this is a phenomenal feature that really sets Tradefull apart from other options within the eCommerce tools sphere. Instead of committing team members to update each of these items across different websites like Amazon, Walmart, eBay, and others, everything is updated from the same dashboard.

Wrap Up: Tradefull’s Tech Is Enhancing eCommerce Logistics

The eCommerce industry is growing, which means both established and new businesses need to be ready to evolve in order to meet consumer demands. Simply put, Tradefull is a complete eCommerce logistics solution that all online brands need to check out. From handling the basics like order management to complete 3PL services, their technology is the best way to save both time and money.
