    Quick answer

    How Should Marketplaces Build Seller, Category and B2B Commercial Capability at Scale?

    Marketplace supply grows when sellers are activated quickly, advised commercially and kept healthy — and when category teams manage assortment, pricing and promotion as an economic system. LeadershipRadius builds seller onboarding and activation, catalogue quality and discoverability, seller account health and retention, pricing, promotions and marketplace economics, seller advertising and growth advisory, category economics and assortment, enterprise e-commerce selling and key accounts, and digital procurement and supplier growth for B2B commerce.

    Questions about Seller, Category & B2B Commerce

    Sellers churn after the first quarter. What changes?

    Onboarding is redesigned around first-order speed, catalogue readiness and early account-health signals, with advisory conversations that solve commercial problems rather than chase compliance.

    Is category training about negotiation only?

    No. It covers assortment, pricing architecture, promotion economics, margin mix and analytics — negotiation is one part of a broader commercial toolkit.

    Does this apply to B2B marketplaces?

    Yes — enterprise selling, supplier growth, digital procurement workflows and account governance are covered as their own pathway.
