Overview #
The seller dashboard in the ProfiCircle app features two tables: one displaying non-participating auctions and the other showing participating auctions. These tables provide sellers with a clear overview of their auction-related activities on the platform.
In the participating auctions table, sellers can view detailed information about auctions they are actively involved in. This includes the project name, auction status, total offer value submitted by the seller, project deadline, and a button indicating the next step regarding the project.
Each auction is associated with a specific project within the ProfiCircle platform. Sellers can track the progress of their participation in these auctions and take appropriate actions based on the provided information. The table layout ensures that sellers can easily access and manage their ongoing auction activities, facilitating efficient decision-making and engagement with potential buyers.
Joining an auction #
To join an auction on the ProfiCircle platform, sellers can follow these steps:
- Login to the Dashboard: Sellers first need to log in to their account on the ProfiCircle platform using their credentials.
- Navigate to the Auctions Section: Once logged in, sellers should navigate to the “Auctions” section of their dashboard. This section typically provides access to both non-participating and participating auctions.
- Browse Available Auctions: In the “Auctions” section, sellers can browse through the available auctions listed in the non-participating auctions table. They can review the details of each auction, including the project name, status, and deadline.
- Select an Auction: After reviewing the available auctions, sellers can select the auction they are interested in participating in by clicking on it. This action will typically lead them to a detailed view of the selected auction, where they can learn more about the project requirements and specifications.
- Submit an Offer: Once sellers have reviewed the details of the auction and are ready to participate, they can submit their offer for the project. Sellers typically have the option to enter the total offer value they are willing to provide for the project.
- Confirmation: After submitting their offer, sellers may receive a confirmation message indicating that their offer has been successfully submitted. They should review the details of their offer to ensure accuracy.
- Monitor Participation: Sellers should regularly monitor the participating auctions table in their dashboard to keep track of the auctions they have joined. This table provides real-time updates on the status of the auction, including any changes or updates that may occur.
Manage participating auctions #
Once a seller is participating in auctions on the ProfiCircle platform, they can perform several actions to manage their involvement effectively. Here’s what a seller can do with participating auctions:
- View Auction Details: Sellers can view detailed information about each auction they are participating in. This includes the project name, current status of the auction, total offer value submitted by the seller, project deadline, and any other relevant details.
- Monitor Auction Status: Sellers can monitor the status of participating auctions in real-time. They can track changes in the auction status, such as updates on bidding activity, project milestones, or communication from the buyer.
- Manage Offers: Sellers have the option to manage their offers for participating auctions. They can review the offer they have submitted and make adjustments if necessary, such as revising the total offer value or updating project deliverables.
- Communicate with Buyers: Sellers can communicate directly with the buyers of the projects associated with participating auctions. They can initiate conversations, respond to inquiries, and provide additional information as needed to facilitate the bidding process.
- Take Next Steps: Sellers can take appropriate actions based on the status of the auction and project requirements. This may include following up with buyers to discuss terms and conditions, negotiating pricing or delivery options, or finalizing contractual agreements.
- Track Progress: Sellers can track the progress of participating auctions and monitor any updates or changes related to the project. This helps sellers stay informed about the status of their bids and enables them to take proactive steps to ensure successful outcomes.
- Manage Transactions: Once an auction is successfully completed, sellers can manage transactions related to the project. This includes coordinating shipping and delivery logistics, invoicing the buyer for the agreed-upon amount, and ensuring timely payment processing.
By utilizing these features and functionalities, sellers can effectively engage with participating auctions on the ProfiCircle platform, maximize their opportunities for business growth, and establish successful partnerships with buyers.
