Discussing the marketplace, now the development of the marketplace or online market is growing rapidly in Indonesia. This is inseparable from the collaborative role of various stakeholders in encouraging business actors in Indonesia to start going digital.
The go digital strategy is considered capable of driving Indonesia’s economic growth more quickly and precisely, especially in terms of small and medium enterprises. This is because business activities and small and medium-sized industries in Indonesia play a major role in the movement of the Indonesian economy as a whole.
However, many business actors and small and medium-sized industries still use conventional marketing strategies. Many factors are the reasons small and medium businesses are still trapped in conventional marketing strategies.
Lack of knowledge of the digital world and the unavailability of sufficient supporting facilities for small and medium enterprises to go digital, among others.
This of course has an impact on the movement of company turnover and the Indonesian economy as a whole which is relatively slow.
Therefore, the government’s current digital marketing strategy is intensifying to attract small and medium-sized businesses in Indonesia to be more open to the world of digital markets.
Indotrading as the largest and most trusted B2B marketplace in Indonesia, fully supports the go digital strategy.
Because Indotrading has a shared vision to encourage small and medium businesses and industries in Indonesia to jump in and switch their business marketing strategy to digital-based marketing.
Bigger, unlimited and faster marketing.

Indotrading is a digital company with a focus on marketing and B2B products that was founded by Handy Chang in 2012.

In running and developing Indotrading, he also said that he learned a lot from Indiamart, the largest marketplace in India as a mecca and comparison of B2B marketplaces. This is based on the similarity of conditions, backgrounds, and people’s behavior between people in the Indonesian market and India.
Apart from his personal experience and comparative observations, Handy Chang also admitted that the figure of Jack Ma, who is the founder of Alibaba, became an inspirational figure who gave him a lot of enthusiasm to be able to establish and develop Indotrading.
