Ancillary Product and Service Marketplace

Businesses are increasingly turning to their service providers for additional products and services that may not be part of the providers' core offering. Therefore, service providers are under pressure to provide an expanded offering in order to become a one-stop shop for these customers. Operating a one-stop shop is more attractive to prospective and existing customers and helps to offer a stronger competitive advantage. However, expanding an offering often results in additional overhead and resources being allocated to managing these third party relationships or additional development endeavors. This can also take away from the focus and resources that go to the management of a provider's core offering and sales or support efforts.

Many providers are turning to software vendors and forming partnerships in order to cover a multitude of needs for customers and reduce overhead while still creating tighter integration. SaaShr has developed an ancillary product and service marketplace for service providers licensing its technology and those providers' customers. The marketplace makes it easier for service providers like you to become a one-stop shop and is accessible directly through our workforce management platform. The marketplace features tightly integrated complementary products and services from accredited third party vendors and internally developed offerings in a broad range of functional categories.

This marketplace allows you to strengthen customer relationships by providing access to a wider range of connected services that will also serve as profit centers and facilitate the generation of additional recurring revenue streams.

Businesses will be given the power of choice through the use of this consumer-like
application marketplace.

Third Party Services in the Marketplace

Third party vendors must pass a rigorous evaluation process before being included in the marketplace. The vendors being featured in the marketplace are not just at the forefront of their industry in terms of products and services, but also in terms of development practices, data security, quality of services, and overall support. Categories within the marketplace include, but are not limited to:
