Member Marketplace ONLINE
 

 Member Marketplace ONLINE

The Goodwill Industries International (GII) Member Marketplace ONLINE is a vendor directory designed to help local Goodwill organizations and their retail stores to source their vendor needs. It also enables approved vendors to market their goods and services frequently and more effectively to the Goodwill network.

The Member Marketplace ONLINE and Member Marketplace LIVE are components of the Goodwill Industries International vendor relationship program.

Participation to the Member Marketplace ONLINE takes the following forms:

Listing – Vendor profile with company description, links and contacts. Limited reporting on listing clicks is available to determine effectiveness.

Promotions – Timed advertisement with offer details. Promotions may be submitted weekly to marketplace@goodwill.org for logo compliance review, approval and download to the Marketplace. Reporting is not currently available.
