Wholesale Retail Auctions:

Hey there! I just wanted to share that many advertisers in this magazine offer wholesale and retail products, reward programs, free trials, promo codes, affiliate programs, creative resources, amazing stories, free merchandise samples, and free shipping. Perks that absolutely work.

The list of special offers is always growing, so feel free to look around!

Wholesale transactions involve selling your work in large quantities to a dealer or retailer at a discounted price. This allows you to handle a higher volume of business, while your buyer gets a discount. The buyer then resells your work to their clients. Wholesale transactions can take place at craft shows, directly between galleries and artists, or with the aid of agents.
Consignment is when you provide work to a reseller (consignee) who agrees to pay you proceeds from the sales minus a commission. If your product doesn’t sell, the consignee can return it. Under this arrangement, the consignee takes a minor risk because they don’t have to purchase goods. The advantage to you is that it provides access to sales outlets that might not otherwise be available.
Retailing involves selling consumer goods or services to customers through multiple channels of distribution to earn a profit. Retailers satisfy demand identified through a supply chain. Retail refers to the activity of selling goods or services directly to consumers or end-users. Some retailers may sell to business customers, but legal definitions of retail in some jurisdictions or regions specify that at least 80% of sales activity must be to end-users.

xometry

Artificial Intelligence (AI) – the Core of Our Marketplace

We focused on developing a means to generate an instant and accurate price for our buyers and allow sellers to source curated manufacturing opportunities that match their specific processes and capacity. Artificial Intelligence gave us the tools to create a machine learning approach to accurately and quickly price part designs and lead times, and match them to the appropriate sellers.

It allowed us to continually improve with acceptance across a wide range of designs, materials, and sizes.

Xometry essentially created a liquid, scalable, and global marketplace for the sourcing of on-demand parts. This liquidity gave us the opportunity to gain visibility into the supply and demand balance locally, regionally, and globally. Liquidity permits us to route work intelligently to support a more robust and resilient supply chain that is designed to respond to crises such as pandemics or natural disasters without skipping a beat.

Importance of Our Seller Community

Our sellers range in size, from large machine shops to small businesses run by talented craftspeople. We call our sellers “partners” for a reason; they are as committed to their industry and their community as we are. For decades, they have played a pivotal role in their local economy’s prosperity. We help them access a broader customer base, scale capacity, and improve their cash cycle through Xometry’s seller financial services.

Our People

Our teammates are Xometry’s most important asset. The powerful combination of their unique knowledge and abilities drives our company and its marketplace. We embrace both independent thought and teamwork to tackle tough problems, empowering our team to find the best solutions.

Our flywheel functions due to the hard work of our software programmers, technicians, mechanical engineers, marketers, salespeople, physicists, accountants, computational mathematicians and statisticians, and even a Jeopardy! champion. We are grateful for their contributions and are excited to continue building the largest and most comprehensive manufacturing marketplace in the world alongside them.
