For example, the management server may evaluate the first product and the second product for each of a plurality of criteria, select a product with a high evaluation score as a seller sale product, and apply a weight corresponding to the criterion to each of a plurality of criteria. , weighted evaluation scores for the first product and the second product may be calculated, and products sold by the seller may be selected based on the weighted evaluation scores for the first product and the second product.

Hereinafter, the selection of seller-sold products according to the criteria for selecting at least one seller-sold product will be described in detail.

In one embodiment, the criterion for selecting the product for sale by the seller may be based on the order in which product information is provided to the management server. For example, as a criterion for selecting a product for sale by a seller, the higher the time when product information is provided to the management server is in the order of the latest, the higher the evaluation may be. As another example, the criterion for selecting a product for sale by a seller may be evaluated higher as the time point at which product information is provided to the management server is older. The management server may check the order in which the product information of the first product and the product information of the second product are provided to the management server based on the timing when the product information of the first product and the product information of the second product are provided to the management server. . However, in another embodiment, when product information according to the same product or product type has been previously provided to the management server, the management server may check the order in which product information is provided based on the time point when the previously provided product information is provided. . According to the criterion for selecting the product sold by the seller, the management server evaluates the first product and the second product, calculates an evaluation score for each product, and selects a product sold by the seller based on the evaluation score.

Also, in another embodiment, the criterion for selecting the product sold by the seller may be based on the cumulative number of times the product is provided to the management server. For example, a criterion for selecting a product for sale by a seller may be evaluated higher as the cumulative number of times of providing the product decreases. As another example, a criterion for selecting a product sold by a seller may be evaluated higher as the number of cumulative provision of the product increases. The management server may store information on products and product types in the above-described product supplier DB whenever product information is provided from a product supply client. In addition, the management server determines the cumulative number of times the first product or a product corresponding to the product type of the first product is provided to the management server based on the information stored in the product supplier DB, the product information of the first product, and the product information of the second product, and The cumulative number of times the second product or a product corresponding to the product type of the second product is provided to the management server may be checked. According to the criterion for selecting the product sold by the seller, the management server evaluates the first product and the second product, calculates an evaluation score for each product, and selects a product sold by the seller based on the evaluation score.

Also, in another embodiment, the criterion for selecting a product for sale by a seller may be based on the date of manufacture of the product. For example, the product may be highly evaluated as the manufacturing date of the product is recent. The management server may check the date of manufacture of the first product and the second product based on the date of manufacture of the first product included in the product information of the first product and the date of manufacture of the second product included in the product information of the second product. there is. According to the criterion for selecting the product sold by the seller, the management server evaluates the first product and the second product, calculates an evaluation score for each product, and selects a product sold by the seller based on the evaluation score.

Also, in another embodiment, the criterion for selecting seller-sold products may be based on a sellable quantity of at least one product corresponding to a product type managed by the management server. For example, the management server may manage products by product type. For example, products such as laptops and desktops may be managed as the same product type as computers. In addition, the management server may check the saleable quantity of at least one product corresponding to the product type managed by the management server. For example, product type-products corresponding to computers (e.g., laptops, desktops, etc.) that can be sold and product type-products corresponding to clothing (eg, men's clothing, women's clothing, children's clothing, etc.) You can check the quantity available for sale. In addition, the management server may assign weights to sellable quantities of products corresponding to each product type. For example, if the saleable quantity of a product corresponding to product type-computer is 10 and the saleable quantity of product corresponding to product type-clothing is 50, the management server assigns a high weight to clothing with a large sellable quantity. can be granted Of course, it is not limited thereto, and a high weight may be assigned to a product type having a small number of products available for sale. The management server may evaluate each product by using a weight assigned to the product type according to the saleable quantity. For example, if the first product is a laptop computer and the second product is a men's suit, the management server selects the first product with a high weight assigned to the product type as the second product according to the criteria for selecting the product sold by the seller. You can evaluate it higher and select the seller's sales product based on the evaluation score.

Also, in another embodiment, the criterion for selecting a product sold by a seller may be based on whether product supply clients of products registered in a seller account are the same. For example, as a criterion for selecting a product sold by the seller, a product of the same product supply client as a product supply client of a product already registered in a seller account may be evaluated higher. This may be for more efficient product management by selling products provided from the same product supplier through a seller account. The management server may check the product registered in the seller's account and the product supply client of the seller's sales product. For example, when it is confirmed that the product supply client of the product registered in the seller account is a first product supply client, the management server provides the first product supplied from the first product supply client to those not supplied from the first product supply client. The product may be evaluated higher than the second product, and the product for sale by the seller may be selected based on the evaluation score.

Also, in another embodiment, a criterion for selecting a product for sale by a seller may be based on a delivery price of the product. For example, a criterion for selecting a product for sale by a seller may be evaluated higher as the shipping price of the product is lower. This is because the lower the delivery price of the product, the higher the competitiveness of the product, and thus, the higher the sales volume of the product, the higher the profitability. The management server checks the delivery price of the first product and the delivery price of the second product based on the product information of each product, and if the delivery price of the first product is lower than the delivery price of the second product, the first product is removed. 2 You can rate the product higher than the product and select the product for sale by the seller based on the evaluation score.

Also, in another embodiment, a criterion for selecting a product sold by a seller may be based on a delivery area of the product. For example, a criterion for selecting a product for sale by a seller may be evaluated higher as the number of deliverable areas of the product increases. For example, the more possible delivery to domestic and foreign regions and island regions or the more possible delivery to overseas regions, the higher the evaluation may be. This is because the greater the possibility of delivery of a product, the higher the competitiveness of the product, and thus, the higher the sales volume of the product, the higher the profitability. The management server checks the delivery price of the first product and the deliverable area of the second product based on the product information of each product, and if the deliverable area of the first product is greater than the deliverable area of the second product, the first The product may be evaluated higher than the second product, and a product sold by the seller may be selected based on the evaluation score.

Also, in another embodiment, the management server may acquire additional information about a product, evaluate the first product and the second product based on the additional information, and select a product for sale by the seller. Here, the additional information is information necessary for selecting a product for sale by a seller, and may refer to information generated based on product information and information analyzed by the management server, although not included in product information. The management server may select a more optimal product as a seller's product by using the additional information to select the seller's product.

Hereinafter, embodiments of selecting a product sold by a seller based on a criterion for selecting a product sold by a seller using additional information will be described in detail.

In one embodiment, the additional information may include product supplier evaluation scores for product supply clients. For example, the management server may accumulate and store information corresponding to product supply clients regarding orders, delivery, refunds, and exchanges of products previously provided by product supply clients. For example, the product supply client response information includes at least one of evaluation information on whether the product supplier has responded well to customers, evaluation information on whether product delivery is fast, and evaluation information on whether exchanges and refunds are carried out quickly and easily. and calculate a product supplier evaluation score for the product supply client based on the product supply client response information.

In addition, the criterion for selecting the product sold by the seller may be based on the product supplier evaluation score for the product supply client included in the additional information. For example, the management server may evaluate a product provided from the product supply client highly as the product supplier evaluation score of the product supply client increases. For example, when the first product supplier evaluation score for a first product client is higher than the second product supplier evaluation score for a second product client, the management server evaluates the first product higher than the second product, and sets the evaluation score to Based on this, sellers can select products for sale.

Also, in another embodiment, the additional information may include a selling price of a product in an online market. For example, the management server may set a selling price of a product in an online market based on a supply price of the product included in product information of the product. For example, the management server may determine the profit amount in consideration of the product, product type, expected sales volume of the product, and supply price of the product. For example, the profit amount may be determined to be higher when the product or product type is a high value-added product group, the expected sales volume of the product is high, or the supply price of the product is high. Of course, it is not limited to this, and the profit amount can be uniformly determined for all products. Accordingly, the management server may include the determined profit amount and/or selling price as additional information.

In addition, the criterion for selecting a product sold by a seller may be based on a selling price of the product in an online market. For example, the management server may highly evaluate a product whose sales price in the online market is within a specific range according to the criteria for selecting the product sold by the seller. This is because, when the selling price of a product in the online market is within a specific range, sales volume can be expected to be higher than when it is within a different range, which can lead to improved profitability. However, it is not limited to this, and as another example, the management server may evaluate a product with a higher selling price in the online market according to the criteria for selecting the product sold by the seller, and the product sold in the online market. The lower the price, the higher the value may be.

In addition, the criterion for selecting the product sold by the seller may be based on the profit amount of the product. For example, the management server may evaluate a product with a higher profit amount according to the criterion for selecting the product sold by the seller. This is because a seller's profitability can increase as a product with a high profit margin for product sales is selected as a seller's product.

Also, in another embodiment, the additional information may include information about a search frequency of a product or product type on an Internet site for a predetermined period of time. Here, the Internet site may include at least one of an online search site, a social network service, or an online market through which a buyer can search for a product or product type. For example, the management server may obtain information on the search frequency of products or product types on the Internet site for a predetermined period from the Internet site, and convert the obtained search frequency information into additional information for each product. can be included in Also, the search frequency of a product or product type may include a search frequency of a keyword corresponding to the product or product type. The search frequency of a product or product type may include a search increase/decrease ratio of the product or product type. The criterion for selecting seller-sold products may be based on the frequency (or search increase/decrease rate) in which products are searched for on an Internet site for a predetermined period of time, and the management server determines the Internet site according to the criterion for selecting seller-sold products. A product with a high frequency of search for a product or product type on the site can be highly evaluated. This is because the higher the search frequency of a product or product type on the Internet site, the higher the expected sales volume of the corresponding product, which can lead to an improvement in profitability.

Also, in another embodiment, the additional information may include sales results of products in an online market in which a seller account is set and/or other online markets for a predetermined period of time. Here, other online markets may include domestic and overseas online markets. For example, the management server obtains information on product sales performance for a predetermined period from online markets, or acquires product sales performance in online markets for a predetermined period of products sold on consignment through the management server. can do. Here, the product sales results may include sales results for product types. Also, the product sales performance may include a rate of increase or decrease in sales volume of a product or type of product or a rate of increase or decrease in sales due to sales of a product or type of product. In addition, product sales results may include expected sales results. For example, the management server may perform a certain event in the future (eg, summer vacation period, holiday period, etc.) based on the sales performance of products in the online market in which the seller account is set in the past and/or other online markets. It is possible to predict sales performance in online markets during a period including a period of

In addition, the management server may obtain product sales results in online markets for a predetermined period through various paths, such as Internet public information. In addition, the management server may include acquired sales results of products in online markets as additional information. In addition, the criterion for selecting the product sold by the seller may be based on the sales performance of the product in the online market in which the seller account is set for a predetermined period and/or other online markets, and the management server determines the product sold by the seller for a predetermined period of time. According to the criterion, a product having a high sales record in an online market in which a seller account is set on the Internet site and/or other online markets may be highly evaluated. This may be done to increase sales volume by selecting a product with a high sales performance in the online market as a product sold by the seller. In addition, as another example, the management server may assign different weights to product sales results in an online market where a seller account is set and product sales results in other online markets, and evaluate products in consideration of the weights. . For example, products with high sales performance may be different for each online market, and in order to increase the sales volume of products in the online market where the seller account is set, a weight for the sales performance of the product in the online market where the seller account is set is assigned a weight in other online markets. It can be given a higher weight than the sales performance of the product in . As another example, the management server may highly evaluate a product with low sales performance in an online market in which a seller account is set on the Internet site and/or other online markets according to criteria for selecting seller sales products. . In the case of a product with low sales performance, the product supplier may have a large inventory amount, and the product seller may reduce the inventory amount.

Also, in another embodiment, the additional information may include information about product competition in an online market in which a seller account is set for a predetermined period of time. For example, the greater the number of sellers of the same or similar product as the product to be sold in the online market or the number of sellers of products included in the same or similar product type, the higher the product competition in the online market, and vice versa. may have low product competition in the online market. The management server may obtain information about product competition in the online market from the online market or through various routes such as Internet open information, and may include the acquired information in additional information. In addition, the criterion for selecting a product for sale by a seller may be based on information about product competition in the online market for a predetermined period of time. The management server may highly evaluate a product having a low degree of product competition in the online market. This may be to increase the sales volume of the product by preferentially selling the product with low product competition in the online market through the seller's account. However, it is not limited thereto, and the management server may highly evaluate a product having a high degree of product competition in the online market.

Also, in another embodiment, the additional information may include sales results of products in an offline market. Here, the offline market may mean that a seller and a buyer transact products in a face-to-face manner rather than an online market. Also, the offline market may include domestic and overseas offline markets. In addition, the sales results of products may include sales results of product types in the offline market and sales increase/decrease rates of products or product types in the offline market. The management server may obtain product sales results from an offline market or obtain information on product sales results in an online market through various paths such as Internet public information, and may include the obtained information in additional information. In addition, the criterion for selecting a product for sale by the seller may be based on sales performance of the product in an offline market. The management server may highly evaluate a product having a high sales performance in the offline market according to the criterion for selecting the product sold by the seller. Since sales volume of products in the offline market and online market may have similar tendencies, this may be to increase sales volume by selecting a product having a high sales performance in the offline market as a seller's sales product. Of course, it is not limited thereto, and a product having a low sales performance in the offline market may be highly evaluated.

In this way, the management server evaluates the first product and the second product using any one of the criteria for selecting products sold by various sellers or criteria for selecting products sold by a plurality of sellers, and the seller based on the evaluation result. It is possible to select a product for sale, register the selected seller sale product in a seller account, or recommend the selected seller sale product to a seller client.

For example, when the management server evaluates a first product and a second product using a first criterion and a second criterion among criteria for selecting a product sold by a seller, the first product is evaluated according to the first criterion. to generate a first evaluation score, evaluate the second product according to the first criterion to generate a second evaluation score, evaluate the first product according to the second criterion to generate a third evaluation score, . A fourth evaluation score may be generated by evaluating the second product according to the second criterion. In addition, the management server sells any one of the first product and the second product based on the first evaluation score, the second evaluation score, the third evaluation score, and the fourth evaluation score to the seller. product can be selected. For example, the management server may add up the first evaluation score and the third evaluation score, add the second evaluation score and the fourth evaluation score, and then select the product for sale by the seller based on the summed score.

For convenience of explanation, the criteria for selecting products sold by two sellers and the evaluation of the products for the two products are described, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and the criteria for selecting products sold by three or more sellers and/or The description of the evaluation of the above-described products may be applied as it is to three or more products.

In addition, in one embodiment, the management server periodically or non-periodically re-selects the seller-sold product according to the criteria for selecting the seller-sold product, registers the reselected product in the seller's account as the seller-sold product, You can re-commend the seller to your clients. For example, the management server may periodically re-select seller sales products according to periods such as 1 day, 1 week, and 1 month, or may re-select seller sales products non-periodically, such as when there is a request from the seller. This may be to provide the seller with an optimal product according to the product sales tendency, since product sales tendencies may change over time.

In addition, in one embodiment, the management server may recommend a product sold by a seller to a seller client, and then receive a response from the seller client about whether to accept the recommendation of a product sold by the seller. When obtaining a response from the seller client indicating that the recommendation of a product sold by the seller is accepted, the management server may register the recommended product sold by the seller in the seller account. Accordingly, the seller sale product may be sold through the seller account.

In addition, in one embodiment, when obtaining a response indicating that the seller client does not accept the recommendation of a seller sold product, the management server may select a product that is not recommended as a seller sold product as a new seller sold product. For example, when the evaluation scores of the first to fifth products evaluated according to the criteria for selecting products sold by a plurality of sellers are the highest for the first product and the second highest for the second product, the first product is the seller. It can be recommended as a product for sale. However, when receiving a response indicating that the recommendation of the first product is not accepted from the seller client, the management server may select the second product having the second highest evaluation score among the plurality of products as a new seller sale product. At this time, the management server may register the second product as a seller sale product, and may recommend the second product to the seller client.

Also, in another embodiment, when obtaining a response indicating that the seller client does not accept the recommendation of a product sold by the seller, the management server may provide the seller client with information about a product that can be supplied from the product supply clients. In this embodiment, if the first product is included in the products that can be supplied from the product supply clients but has not previously been recommended as a seller sale product, the management server obtains information on the first product from the seller client. can do. In this case, the management server may register the first product as a seller sale product.

Also, as another example, the management server may determine whether to register the first product as a seller-sold product by determining whether or not it meets criteria for selecting a seller-sold product. For example, the management server may evaluate the first product according to criteria for selecting seller-sold products, and register the first product as a seller-sold product when the evaluation score of the first product is equal to or greater than a predetermined score. If the evaluation score of the first product is lower than the predetermined score, the management server does not register the first product as a seller-sold product, selects another product according to the criteria for selecting a seller-sold product, and selects the selected product. It can be registered as a seller-sold product, or the selected product can be recommended to a seller's client as a seller-sold product. Also, according to an embodiment, the management server may obtain information on other products other than products that can be supplied from product supply clients provided to seller clients. In this case, the management server may register the corresponding product as a product sold by the seller, and may determine whether the corresponding product meets criteria for selecting a product sold by the seller. Since the above information may be applied to this, a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

In addition, in step S1300, when a seller sale product is registered, the seller sale product may be sold through the seller account. In addition, the management server may perform communication between the product supply client and the online market server so that orders and transactions of products sold by the seller may be smoothly performed.

Specifically, when the first product supplied from the first product supply client is registered as a seller-sold product, the management server periodically or non-periodically checks whether an order for the first product has been requested from the buyer client through the seller account. can When the request for ordering the first product is confirmed, the management server may provide order information on the first product to the first product supply client so that the first product is smoothly delivered to the buyer. Here, the order information for the first product may include a purchased quantity of the first product, buyer information about the buyer, and reference information for ordering the product. When the first product is delivered by the first product supplier corresponding to the first product supply client, the management server obtains product delivery information from the first product supply client, and the management server transmits the product delivery information to the seller of the online market server. account can be provided. In the above embodiment, the first product supply client and the seller client may sell and deliver the first product without performing direct communication with each other. This is due to the operation of the management server, and product suppliers and sellers can more conveniently sell products according to the operation of the management server.

In addition, the management server may calculate the seller's profit according to the sale of the seller's sales product. This will be described in detail in FIG. 5 .

4 is a diagram for explaining a specific embodiment of step S1200 according to an embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 4 , step S1200 is a step of evaluating a first product and a second product using a weight corresponding to a criterion for selecting a product sold by a seller (S1210) and selecting a product sold by a seller based on the evaluation result. Step S1220 may be included.

For convenience of description, steps S1210 and S1220 will be described based on the criteria for selecting two seller-sold products and the two products, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and for selecting three or more seller-sold products The description of steps S1210 and S1220 may be applied as it is to the standard and/or three or more products.

In step S1210, the management server may evaluate the first product and the second product according to a criterion for selecting a plurality of sellers selling products. For example, the management server generates a first evaluation score by evaluating a first product according to a first criterion, generates a second evaluation score by evaluating a second product according to the first criterion, and generates a second evaluation score according to the second criterion. Evaluating the first product to generate a third evaluation score. A fourth evaluation score may be generated by evaluating the second product according to the second criterion.

However, weights of the first criterion and the second criterion may be set differently according to embodiments. For example, when the first criterion has a greater influence on product sales than the second criterion, the management server may set a weight of the first criterion higher than that of the second criterion. The management server may generate weighted evaluation scores for the first product and the second product by using the first weight corresponding to the first criterion and the second weight corresponding to the second criterion. For example, the management server applies the first weight corresponding to the first criterion to the first evaluation score for the first product to generate a first weighted evaluation score, and applies the first weight to the first evaluation score for the second product. 2, an evaluation score reflecting a second weight may be generated by applying the evaluation score. In addition, the management server applies a second weight corresponding to a second criterion to the third evaluation score to generate a third weighted evaluation score, and applies the second weight to the fourth evaluation score to reflect a fourth weighted value. An evaluation score can be generated.

In addition, in step S1220, the management server registers any one of the first product and the second product as a product for sale by the first seller based on the first weighted evaluation score to the fourth weighted evaluation score, or the seller Can recommend to clients. For example, the management server adds the first weighted evaluation score and the third weighted evaluation score, adds the second weighted evaluation score and the fourth weighted evaluation score, and then the seller based on the summed scores. You can select products for sale. And, the management server may register the selected seller sale product as the first seller product or recommend it to the seller client.

5 is a diagram for explaining a specific embodiment of step S1300 according to an embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 5, step S1300 is to check whether the online market settlement amount for the first product has been deposited in the online market through the seller's account periodically or non-periodically when the first product is registered as a seller sale product. Step (S1310), step of checking the offer price of the first product based on the supply price of the first product included in the product information of the first product (S1320), and the online market settlement amount for the first product and the A step of calculating the seller's profit based on the offer price (S1330) may be included.

In step S1310, after the buyer client orders the first product, which is a seller-sold product, and delivery according to the order is completed, information on the online market settlement amount for the first product may be provided to the seller account in the online market. . Here, the online market settlement amount for the first product is an amount deposited to the seller in exchange for the sale of the first product in the online market, and may represent, for example, an amount obtained by subtracting an online market commission from the sales price of the first product. there is. The management server may periodically or non-periodically check whether the online market settlement amount for the first product has been deposited in the online market. For example, the management server may check whether or not the settlement amount is deposited through the seller's account, or whether or not the settlement amount is deposited from the seller client or the online market server.

In addition, in step S1320, the management server may check the provision price of the first product based on the supply price of the first product. Here, the supply price of the first product is a cost to be provided by the consignment sales manager to the first product supplier in exchange for supply of the first product, and may be included in product information of the first product. In addition, the provision price of the first product is a cost that the seller must provide to the consignment sales manager in exchange for supplying the first product, and may be an amount including the commission of the consignment sales manager in the supply price of the first product. For example, the management server may check the provision price of the first product previously stored in the management server. Also, as another example. The management server may calculate the commission of the consignment sales manager for the first product, and determine the offer price of the first product by summing the commission of the consignment sales manager for the first product and the supply price of the first product.

In addition, in step S1330, the management server may calculate an amount obtained by subtracting the offer price of the first product from the online market settlement amount for the first product as the seller's profit. In some cases, the consignment sales manager may deposit the profits to the seller to process expenses. However, in this case, since profit must be deposited to the seller for each product sale, cost processing may be complicated and cumbersome.

In order to process costs more conveniently, the management server may use the seller's accumulated amount. The management server may check the accumulated amount corresponding to the seller's account. Here, the accumulated amount is for convenient sales and settlement of products, and may refer to an amount received in advance from a seller. The management server may update the accumulated amount by subtracting the provision price of the first product from the accumulated amount. In this way, even if revenue is not deposited to the seller for each product, when the online market settlement amount for the first product is deposited to the seller from the online market, the management server can perform cost processing more efficiently by updating the accumulated amount. there is.

Referring to FIG. 6 , the web page 1000 may be provided from a seller account of an online market server. Also, the web page 1000 may include information on products for sale. For example, the web page 1000 may include information 1010 on products sold by the seller. In one embodiment, seller sale products may be products registered in a seller account. In addition, when a first product 620 is ordered from among seller-sold products, the management server performs communication between a product supply client of a product provider supplying the first product and the online market server to sell and deliver the first product. , cost processing according to the sales revenue of the seller can be performed. In this regard, the contents described in FIGS. 1 to 5 may be applied.

Also, FIG. 7 may show a web page 1100 in which the web page 1000 of FIG. 6 is updated. Information 1110 on products sold by the seller on the web page 1100 may be different from information 1010 on products sold by the seller on the web page 1000 . In one embodiment, the management server may periodically or non-periodically re-select seller-sold products according to criteria for selecting seller-sold products, and register the re-selected products as seller-sold products. In addition, the management server may re-recommend the re-selected product to the seller client as a seller-sold product, and when the re-recommendation of the seller-sold product is accepted by the seller client, the management server registers the seller-sold product and the seller-sold product. It is possible to set the web page 1100 so that the information 1110 about the seller includes re-recommended seller sales products.
