Webshops, by product range

searches webshops by their products, and sees on their website whether there is a basket and which payment provider they use. In the example, a parcel delivery company looks for jewellery webshops, then cosmetics webshops in the same way. Each step moves on with one condition, and the earlier ones stay.

This is for you if…

you offer a service to webshops: delivery, payments, packaging, marketing;
your customers sell one product range online;
it matters whether the webshop really takes online orders.

What will be ready at the end

For each product range, a checked target group of webshops with a basket, with the payment provider you want and an email address suited to the task, in a separate campaign for each product range.

Six steps

Each step comes with the sentence you can copy into Apex, and what Apex does with it.

One product range
“Webshop” on its own is broad: a jewellery shop and a furniture store want different things from a delivery company. Say what you offer and what products the webshops should sell. If the product range is broad, suggests a narrower one.
Where: the conversation with Apex; the conditions in the results panel on the right
Ask ApexApex does it
We offer parcel delivery to webshops. We're looking for Hungarian jewellery webshops.
In the reply: 5 jewellery webshops with name and city, each with what it sells.
Basket and payment method
The product range stays; now the website's signals narrow the field. A basket shows that customers order online; if your service is tied to a payment provider, you can name that too, for example Barion.
Where: in the results panel, among the search conditions
Ask ApexApex does it
Only the ones where you can add to a basket and pay with Barion.
In the reply: a new sample with a basket and payment by Barion.
The next product range, the same way
A cosmetics webshop is a different customer and needs a different campaign. “The same way” means that Apex opens a new search with the same conditions, with a basket and the payment provider you named. The jewellery search is kept.
Where: the conversation with Apex; the earlier search is kept too
Ask ApexApex does it
Now let's look at cosmetics webshops the same way.
In the reply: 5 cosmetics webshops with the same conditions.
The rest, in batches
If the direction is right, Apex brings the rest of the webshops in batches: if you give no number, up to 100 in one batch. The batch is prepared in the background, and you can keep working in the meantime.
Where: in the results panel; the background batch, on the task card in the conversation
Ask ApexApex does it
Good, bring 30 more webshops like these.
In the reply: the batch starts; if the number you asked for does not fit into your allowance right now, how many webshops do fit, and when the allowance refills.
Collecting the email addresses
For each company, Apex collects the best-fitting company email address. A webshop's site often has a customer service address for shoppers and another address for the business or the owner. For a delivery offer, Apex picks the operator's or the manager's address if the website gives it, otherwise the general address.
Where: in the results panel; the chosen address on the company's record
Ask ApexApex does it
Collect the email addresses, and where there is one, pick the owner's or the manager's address.
In the reply: for how many webshops it found an address and for how many it did not.
A campaign for each product range
Apex puts each webshop into the campaign for its product range. That way you can send every webshop a campaign about its own products; you write the letters together with Apex.
Where: Customer acquisition › Campaigns
Ask ApexApex does it; you approve the launch
Put the jewellery shops into the “Jewellery webshops” campaign and the cosmetics ones into the “Cosmetics webshops” campaign.

Frequently asked questions

What most people ask in this situation.

What size of webshops come up?

looks at the product range and the website's signals: basket, payment method, languages. Most webshops do not publish their turnover, so it is not worth narrowing on that; the product range tells you more about who needs your offer.

Can I search for a specific product?

Yes: “handmade silver jewellery”, “natural cosmetics”. The more precise the product range, the more precise the target group.

What else can I ask for when searching?

You will find ready-made sentences in the Knowledge base: Target groups and search.

Pitfalls

What most people run into, and how to avoid it.

Unrelated product ranges in one search

“Jewellery and furniture” are two separate customer bases. With two searches, both are more precise, and you can make each one its own campaign.

Your own service in the search

If you only mention parcel delivery, the search pulls towards courier companies. Say which webshops you work for.
