(NYSE American: DSS), ("DSS"), a leader in anti-counterfeit, authentication, and diversion protection technologies, announced today that executives from DSS and Market Defense, LLC will be hosting a free online webinar on Thursday, August 8th at 11:00 am ET, “Solving Your Brand’s Grey Market and Counterfeit Issues on Amazon, Alibaba, Walmart – What You Need to Know”.
“Grey market goods” are goods sold outside the authorized distribution channels by entities which may have no relationship with the producer of the goods. While grey market merchandise is not necessarily counterfeit, it is also not considered legitimate, and can cause severe damage to a brand owner’s reputation and drive authorized seller’s out of business. In addition, counterfeit goods are rampant throughout online e-commerce sites and are responsible for hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue lost by brand owners.
The webinar will provide insights on solutions for overcoming the potential damage these rogue online sellers can do to a brand’s reputation and revenue. Come join us, register below for the free webinar.
