RON: There's registration, and how are you going to handle dropshipping and we have to split the order. What happens if somebody comes in and places an order in my marketplace for three items, and all three items are with different vendors. Well, there's three separate orders that I need to send out from the platform now to all three vendors so they can each fulfill their part of the order. And then those vendors have to send the tracking status back so the person can track all three separate orders.
Then there's commissions. Do they do their own commission? How do we integrate? Is it all just EDI? Is there API? There's a whole bunch of stuff, so I'm going to turn it over to you now so you can dive in a little bit more to the vendor and seller portion of the marketplace.
CHRIS: Thanks. And I think that was a great overview, because this is really detailed depending on your business workflow. And each of the different businesses that we work with tends to cater to different aspects of this marketplace opportunity and marketplace eCommerce platform offering. Some of our clients leverage a buying group or group purchasing type of scenario. And in that state, it makes a lot of sense to be able to have complex workflows that can handle and self-service, make it self-service for the user [in a] situation where they may be purchasing as a group purchase and dealing with things like containers and really understanding the nuances of the lead time on dropshipping, etc, whether it's group buying or not.
The other thing is, as a general marketplace use, one of the big things that we see is whenever a vendor is registering, we're going to need them to potentially provide some form of verification of their company as a edification within the marketplace. Now, we've done some pretty interesting things here, Ron, and this can be a much more simple version to get users into the marketplace, and that's typically going to be the trend.
