Country Home Decor Stores
You have some great products available for sale but you’re limited to drive by, word of mouth, or random walk in traffic.
You’ve heard about the online shopping craze - now that everyone seems to be ‘over’ the credit card theft scare and credit card companies are more helpful about this issue – but you don’t have a clue, or time, to set up a website that accepts orders for your products.
That’s where we come in. Saving you time and money – at start up and into the future.
How do we do it? I’ll show you…
Here’s How this Story About Home Decor Stores Started
A few years back a friend of mine and I started making products for craft and home decor sales and found a huge interest in our community for country decorating items.
I was more focused on art and business, she had all the talent and interest in home decor so we stayed friends, but persued our own interests in business.
She decided to turn her love of decor into a local shop (probably a lot like yours) and has done very well over the past few years – even though we live in a tourist town and the winter months are relatively quiet here.
Her regular, seasonal customers return every year, but they are always asking her to put more of her merchandise online so they can shop from home.
Making Sales Online Within Days
Just this past December she launched her site and started making online sales the next day.
But that wasn’t the end of it.
Staying in Touch With Your Customers
She also started an email list so that she can send out notices to people who have been on the site or in the store, to tell them about January sale promotions, etc. Those emails alone have brought her a lot more walk-in and repeat customers these past few weeks as well as online sales.
It’s important to note that she doesn’t have a lot of computer or online experience, but after I walked her through an online presentation, she launched her new site with over 400 products for sale, complete with product photos, in two days time. I was very proud to say the least! If you want to see the site it’s at www.theoldtinshed.com
How Much Money Is Spent Online?
I recently read on comScore (an online independent research company) that online spending for all of 2007 is projected well over $200 billion – and it’s not all being spent on Amazon or eBay. A large portion of that income is being collected from local retail stores and services.
Shops just like yours that have or need, an ecommerce business website.
Take just a moment and imagine what a full featured, marketing capable, cash generating application like this could do for your own business income…
I know it seems ‘fuzzy’ right now. You likely have a lot of other business tasks on your plate – learning how to set up and manage a website is too large of a task and too time consuming.
Small Business Websites Made Profitable, Made Easy
Again, that’s where we come in…and we’re setting new industry standards by getting small business off the ground and taking orders within just a few days. At well under 1/2 the price everyone else in the business of selling websites to business are charging.
Do I sound excited? There’s a reason for it and I’m dying to show it to you.
I’d love to walk you through the process. And who knows, maybe the next time I’m in your area I can stop in and see your store and meet you in person!
