Our take
The creator market is estimated to be worth well over $100B - and it’s growing fast. With the rise of eCommerce fuelling independent brands, and more people turning to this as a career avenue over recent years, demand is up for tools to support the industry. And SamCart is offering plenty of them.
The SamCart platform provides a wealth of eCommerce tools to help its over 75,000 creator customers set up a website, improve conversion rates and customer value, and operate and scale their businesses. It also offers business education in the form of CreatorU, an online library of business training content.
Importantly, this helps sellers operate independently of eCommerce giants like Etsy and Amazon - and SamCart doesn’t take a percentage of sales in return. This could see SamCart siphon off customers dissatisfied with the giants, whose practices increasingly cater towards larger brands.
So, SamCart has been slowly building out what could prove a huge contender to these major eCommerce rivals. Certainly, the rapid expansion of tools (including support for video course creators) demonstrates a market savvy and agility which will help it compete as the creator market grows.
