Below we’ll pair up each part of the intake form with how it shows on the directory and listing pages so you know what to expect!
Business Website, Address, Phone Number
Your business contact information will be visible within your specific listing page in the call out block seen here.
Your listing will only show the information that is populated. So if you skip your website, address, or phone number the field will not show as empty.
One-Line Business Description
Limited to 35 characters so that this tag line can show nicely on the Store Tiles & Listing Pages
Store Tiles show anywhere your listing is visible in the Directory. This can include the homepage, category and subcategory pages, location pages, and search result pages.
Short Business Summary
Limited to 160 characters, this is a short excerpt that will show on Store tiles before a retailer sees more information on your full listing page.
Business Description
Limited to 1200 characters, this is where you’ll want to pitch your business and products to potential future partners!
Due to the length, this will only show on your specific listing page.
Wholesale Program Details
Your listing page will include a small table of your wholesale offerings, including options for:
– Dropshipping
– No order minimums
– Free shipping
– Net terms
– Worldwide shipping
– Specific countries you ship to (listed as text)
These are great for retailers to see on your listing, and they will also help with search and filtering as well. Any retailer who uses these parameters for results will see listings that fit their search.
Main Image
This image will be your most visible! It will show as a part of your Store Tile and Listing Page.
See our section below on image recommendations!
Supporting Images
These images will become your gallery within your Listing Page! Thumbnails will show until the images are selected, which will expand them for a better look.
See our section below on image recommendations!
Categories & Subcategories
Any Categories and Subcategories you have selected will show in your Store Tile.
Store Tiles show anywhere your listing is visible in the Directory. This can include the homepage, category and subcategory pages, location pages, and search result pages.
All things images!
Your Main Image will definitely get the most views and throughout the directory, the image container will shift a bit. We have some tips to make sure your most visible image packs the most punch. Below is the same image in different places so you can get an idea of how it will shift.
While the image is quite stable in landscape, there’s definitely more significant cropping for Category, Location, & Search Tiles! Whereas with portrait, there is more cropping on Homepage Store Tiles.
With these in mind, we recommend anything around a 1:1 aspect ratio. You can definitely send 2:3 or 3:2 but you can expect some cropping depending on where the image is being seen.
What size should they be? 1000px square should cover all our bases!
An important note about images with text!
Based on the cropping we can see in the examples above, we highly recommend skipping all text in your main image. If images are sent in with text, we will reach out to see if you can offer alternatives so retailers get the best quality experience!
It’s possible that a logo without text could potentially work, but to grab the attention of retailers who may not know your brand yet, we recommend a photograph that shows off your product!
