If you mean by online marketplace is the venue for sellers to be a member of your website then you are thinking of an e-commerce site. I guess it will involve a fairly large capital to put up that kind of business because it is not easy to invite sellers much more the buyers. Aside from creating a website with a good design you have to hire marketing people for getting sellers and buyers into the website. Maybe you need to implement a kind of membership system.
