A new website, NarrowWebExchange.com, has been launched to benefit the label and narrow web marketplace.
NarrowWebExchange.com is the narrow web industry’s online, virtual marketplace for used equipment. This site represents an opportunity for buyers and sellers to connect on a site dedicated specifically to the narrow web industry.
Based on the belief that the time has come for a virtual marketplace for used equipment, NWE.com creator and owner Mat Jones, an industry veteran of nearly 30 years, has created a platform that designed to bring buyers and sellers together directly and online.
“There’s no question that doing business online has and continues to gain acceptance in more and more industries," says Jones. "The pandemic we are currently experiencing has served only to push us in this direction quicker and in ways that have likely changed how we embrace e-commerce, certainly for the short to medium term and perhaps for forever."
NWE.com has developed a process that addresses many of the concerns that have likely discouraged similar attempts in the past. Most notable is the transferring of large amounts of money for an equipment transaction. On NWE.com the money that changes hands between a buyer and a seller for any transaction is done safely and securely, off-line. Buyers and sellers simply communicate payment details through NWE.com's Site Communication System to complete a transaction.
The Site Communication System is another key feature that boosts the confidence between buyers and sellers, notes Jones. There are two communication channels available to users. Buyers can post questions, and Sellers can post answers that are viewable by all users. Or, buyers and sellers can communicate privately by using the site email systems, which is anonymous, only revealing site usernames and not users' personal email addresses.
Listing and selling on NWE.com is free. “There is virtually no reason not to list your idle assets with NarrowWebExchange.com," adds Jones. “Just about every narrow web shop I have been in has equipment they are not utilizing and probably never will again. Why not turn those assets into cash and at the same time help another up and coming success story in our industry?"
