Terapeak is a market research and intelligence tool with a particular emphasis on sales data to assist ecommerce vendors in decisioning. Terapeak was acquired by eBay in December 2017, and the company claims that it plans to integrate it into its Seller Hub suite of software.
Salestools really helped us set up a predictable pipeline and helped us scale our sales efforts. Before we did manually prospecting looking for customers using Stripe and then researched leads and build campaigns. With the Auto Prospector® I managed to do this 100% automated; we grew our business rapidly with Salestools. No data provider is 100% accurate neither is Linkedin and I must say Live Data® from Salestools is as good as Sales Navigator.
Terapeak makes sense for people looking to sell a lot of items or resellers. It does not make sense for people selling one-off items or individuals looking to simply spring clean. It is great for determining pricing, what to start auctions at, and figuring out a shipping/returns strategy (whether or not to offer free shipping, have the buyer pay shipping, and if you should have returns allowed.) I would not recommend it if you just want to move the item out of your house or if you do not care what price an item sells for.
The company has a global focus, their revenue numbers on companies at first was weak but recently I have seen an improvement that gets closer to D&B levels and if they can improve radically there it is a huge plus.
I love IT Budgets, they started to roll it out, wish I had that earlier.
I wish I could use Terapeak outside of eBay. Why can't I use it with other platforms like Mercari, Poshmark, etc.?
I don't like that I have to pay for this feature. Other selling platforms provide their sold information free of charge.
It feels antiquated. I need to click through many menus and tabs to price items. I wish it would automatically move me through the pages, instead of making me fill out the information, then hit "next" or "enter."
We have been trying KLENTY mainly, however, the Prospector of Salestools.io is quite superior. For both cases, the preparation of campaigns are not as easy as it sounds, but as soon as you do the first, it will be easier for your business. Salestools.io has a better and easier interface and the webpage is superb. If you are looking just for follow-up, PLENTLY with doing, but if you need to find a prospect, Salestools.io is the service you need.
Terapeak can't be beaten for selling on eBay, because it is part and parcel with eBay. For comparable listings on other sites, I prefer Sellhound and Jungle Scout. I find that Webgility and Price2Spy are more helpful for SEO and getting to the top of Google's search results. I feel that I get more eyes on my products using other services when I am not specifically selling through eBay. But on eBay, Terapeak is the only service I will use.
We have saved time by using Terapeak for pricing. We did not price our items up too much but made them competitive with the market.
We made more money using Terapeak than we would have without it because we did not under-price items. Terapeak gave accurate comparable sold listings.
One negative impact was simply the cost. It was about $20/month and was set up to auto-renew. We forgot to cancel our membership and accidentally paid for a service we weren't using.
