E-Commerce Custom Solutions
You have products to sell. Your customers want a convenient, easy way to buy from you. With an online store from New Tech Web, you'll be sure to increase sales.
E-Commerce is available in a variety of stages. To save you money, we suggest to most of our clients, that they start with a simple version of an online store which can help save you money while you are testing your marketing strategies and tactics.
We typically
use a custom-designed store and shopping cart to ensure that your
customers' purchase experience flows exactly the way you want it
to.
Online Order Form
The simplest way to conduct E-Commerce is for New Tech Web to design an easy online order form. The form allows your clients to select products and send you the pertinent information to allow you to process their order. Even with this simple approach, we strongly suggest that you secure a merchant account first.
Security
The next step up the ladder of E-Commerce solutions is to secure your shopping cart using Secured Socket Layer (SSL) technology. The SSL certificate ensures your customers that their transaction, and their private information, stays safe.
Database Catalog
Depending on the number of items in your catalog, the number of transactions you expect and the application you currently use to track inventory and sales, New Tech Web will help you determine the appropriate technology and software to use for your online catalog. If you need a simple, inexpensive database that you can maintain yourself, your best solution may be to use Microsoft Access. If you expect a high volume of customers to be accessing your site, and you want your online store to grow with you over time, we recommend a SQL solution. Whatever your needs, New Tech Web, has the solution for you.
Shopping Cart
Your shopping cart should be intuitive to use, consistent in appearance with the rest of your site, and cost-effective to construct. Your best alternative is to have New Tech Web create a custom-designed shopping cart for your online business. Your customers will experience your store exactly as you envision.
Real-Time Transactions
When your shopping cart communicates through a "payment gateway" with your merchant services company, now you have "real-time transactions". This gateway means that your transactions will be processed automatically, securely, and in real time. When your customers conclude their purchase, they will receive confirmation that their credit card was processed. You will receive notification that the transaction took place and the funds are deposited to your account automatically.
Back Office Connectivity
The most sophisticated level of e-commerce connects your website to your inventory and/or accounting systems. This system involves much more than your website. Your system will require a high-speed connection, firewall, internet transaction server, etc. There is also additional programming within the website store and shopping cart that also involves the largest investment of all the levels of e-commerce.
