Base Analytics – why will intuition alone not be enough in 2026?

Many sellers still manage their sales based on individual reports from Allegro, Amazon or eMAG. The problem arises when a company is already operating on several marketplaces simultaneously, has its own online shop, several warehouses and thousands of active listings. In such an environment, it is very easy to make decisions based on incomplete data. This is precisely why Base Analytics is becoming increasingly popular – an analytics module available within the Base system that allows you to view sales from a broader perspective and identify issues affecting Read more

Why won’t advertising make up for a poor product?

When sales drop, many marketplace sellers turn to advertising for a solution. They launch Allegro Ads, Amazon Ads or eMAG Ads campaigns, or invest in promoting their products on social media, hoping for a rapid improvement in results. Unfortunately, it very often turns out that increasing the advertising budget does not deliver the expected results. The reason is simple – advertising can boost the visibility of a listing, but it won’t fix its underlying problems.   Advertising attracts traffic, but does not guarantee sales. The purpose of advertising is to direct potential customers to the product listing. Read more

TEMU changes advertising and ROAS. New rules for retailers

TEMU is introducing a significant change to product ads: the focus is shifting from the evaluation of individual ads to a broader assessment of the shop’s overall sales. For sellers, this means that ROAS itself remains a key metric, but it will need to be interpreted with greater caution.   The most significant change: A notice has appeared in the TEMU Help Centre stating that, from 7 June 2026, the option to create offers based on an advert’s ROAS will be disabled. However, this does not mean that product adverts are disappearing or that sellers Read more

Why does the same product sell differently across channels?

The same product, the same manufacturer, and sometimes even the same price. Yet sales are going very well in one sales channel, whilst in another the product is generating virtually no results. This comes as a surprise to many companies, as it intuitively seems that if a product works well in one place, it should perform similarly everywhere.  In practice, however, sales across different channels follow a completely different logic. What works on one platform may not work just as well on another, even if Read more

Cross-border 2026 - why is bid translation not enough?

Until recently, cross-border e-commerce sales were mainly associated with translating product listings and setting up shipping to another country. Today, that is simply not enough. Customers in different markets have different expectations, marketplaces are setting increasingly stringent requirements, and errors in data, prices or logistics quickly have a negative impact on sales. Cross-border e-commerce in 2026 is not just about language. It’s about tailoring the entire offering to the local market.    Translation is just the first step. Automatic translation of product descriptions can help, but it isn’t Read more

Categories in the TikTok Shop: which products have the most potential?

TikTok Shop is a channel for products that can be discovered through content. This doesn’t mean that only trendy gadgets can be sold. It means that a product must have a reason to appear in a video: an effect, a problem, a story, a transformation, an aesthetic or a context of use. Categories with natural potential include: beauty, personal care, fashion, accessories, homeware, kitchenware, lifestyle, fitness, consumer electronics, hobbies, seasonal products and gifts. The common denominator isn’t the category itself, but how easily the product can be demonstrated. A product that can be shown in Read more

TikTok Shop Ads: GMV Max, Product Ads and LIVE Ads

TikTok Shop is based on content and discovery, but paid promotion can significantly accelerate results. Advertising mechanisms such as Product and LIVE GMV Max are appearing on TikTok Shop PL. Their role is simple: to drive more sales from content, products and moments that already have potential. The most important rule is this: advertising won’t fix a poor product or a poor offer. If the hero SKU isn’t appealing, the product page doesn’t close the sale, and the content doesn’t hold the viewer’s attention, the budget will simply be spent more quickly Read more

TikTok Shop's 90-day strategy: from launch to scale

TikTok Shop is best rolled out in stages. Scaling up too quickly without data can burn through your budget, whilst planning for too long can mean the brand misses its window of opportunity. A good compromise is a 90-day strategy: preparation, testing, optimisation and initial scaling. The first 30 days should be devoted to laying the foundations. The brand selects its hero SKU, prepares product listings, sets prices, promotions, stock levels, order fulfilment policies and a content plan. During this time, briefs for content creators, a list of video formats and the initial concept for the live stream are also drawn up. The aim is not Read more
