So what do you need from an ecommerce store?
Designed by a professional graphic designer
Our graphic designer will talk to you about how you would like to present your business online, what sort of things you like and what you don’t like. The design of your website is important as this is the first impression you are giving to a prospective customer. Don’t worry if you are not sure what you want, we will guide you through the process to make sure your company is presented in its best light in your finished website.
Visitors to your website will need to find their way around easily
Your store will be built with visitors in mind. Why? All that should matter is the number of sales your website generates; if a visitor struggles to find what they are looking for then you are likely to lose them as a customer (or worse still to a competitor).
Plenty of opportunities to up sell and cross sell products
When you get a sale you should look at the opportunities to increase the value of that sale – think batteries, if you were buying an electrical item offer the visitor batteries when they add the item to their basket. This alone could increase the value of a sale by 20% or more – if this was achieved for every sale it would have a significant effect on your turnover.
What products could you cross sell? Our software allows you to specify cross sell and up sell opportunities for every product in your store.
Easy to for you to run
it is important that you can run your web store with ease. We build all our stores so you spend less time administering it and more time running it for profit.
Accepting Payments from Customers
Taking payments is a crucial part of any online store. Our software will integrate into most major online payment systems. But why just offer credit card payments? You can allow customer to pay by invoice (particularly useful when dealing business to business), or perhaps some of your visitors don’t trust online payments – allow them to pay by cheque of bank transfer (once the payment has arrive you can release the goods at no risk to yourself). Offering these alternatives increase the number of sales your site can generate.
Get great rankings in Google, Yahoo, Bing and many other search engines
Your products appearing high in the search engines is one of the many forms of online marketing that your website will be good at. Your ecommerce store will be built with search engines at its heart meaning that every product in your store will be found in when you search for it.
Business Systems Integration
Your ecommerce store could link directly into your business system. If you use Sage or QuickBooks for your invoicing and accounts then we can automate this so any new orders generated on your ecommerce store will automatically update your accountancy system.
Stock Control
Our system has its own built in stock control which will keep tabs on your stock levels if you want it to – but what if your accountancy software already is your stock control system? Don’t worry, we can integrate the ecommerce system so it depletes stock from your system as an order is placed. That way all of your stock control is done in the one place – dramatically reducing the likely hood of human error. Talk to us about the specifics of your business requirements.
Do you use a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system?
Any new customers who buy from you could be automatically logged in your CRM system allowing you to have a central list of all customers who have bought from you through the website or via other means. This makes future marketing incredibly powerful meaning that your future profitability will increase.
If you don’t know what that all means don’t worry, what it does mean is this is a comprehensive ecommerce system. We can explain the parts that are relevant to your business and what will work best for you. When you use us to build your ecommerce store we will take the elements that you agree are the ones that will make a difference to your business and then implement them as part of your store build.
THIS WILL BE THE LAST TIME YOU HAVE TO BUILD YOUR WEBSTORE FROM SCRATCH
Our stores are built using Magento commerce. Widely acknowledged as the best software to on the marketing for building feature packed, quality professional web stores. The software can grow as your business grows and changes, meaning that you never have to start from the beginning again. If your site needs a design refresh (or wholesale redesign) that is not a problem. This can be done without you having to change the shop below it– think of it as a shop refurbishment rather than relocation. Also, the system is expandable to almost any size so it keeps growing in size and features as your business does.
Once you are a client of ours we will make sure you are kept informed of the latest updates and add-ons for your store so you can be the online leader in your marketing place.
