SUURV Can Help You Sell Product(s) & Services.

Here's a blast from the past. On August 11, 1994, an American used a website he built, called "NetMarket," to sell a CD of the rock 'n roll band Sting to a personal friend. This was the first instance of a customer making a purchase from a company through the World Wide Web, or "e-commerce" as it is now generally known. "E-commerce’s share of total retail sales is expected to rise from 20.7.% in 2021 to 23.4% in 2023, averaging 1.3 percentage point each year," (Source). In other words, this is a disruptive growth industry where nearly 80% of Americans shop online, (Source).

So how do you get started? SUURV Marketing can help your business set up the following e-commerce platforms. We will help you pick the solution that best suites your needs, whether you need a business to consumer (B2C) or Business to Business (B2B) model.

WooCommerce Integrates with WordPress Websites.

WooCommerce is your best option if you already use WordPress for your business. A whopping 455 million websites as of 2022 use this content management system (CMS), and the number continues to increase each year. The WooCommerce plugin will integrate into your WordPress site and save you from having to begin from scratch on a new platform. It’s much easier when everything can be developed using an existing platform and run smoothly from a single dashboard.

Likewise, WooCommerce integrates seamlessly with your current backend. From your WordPress dashboard, you can manage your orders, make coupons, and see sales figures. Adding new products is as easy as making a standard post. You can include details about your product, inventory, including a description, image, categories, and tags. It’s powerful. In addition, you can get real-time shipping quotes with the USPS extension, integrate different payment gateways, or add WooCommerce Subscriptions to allow customers to sign up for your goods and services.

Shopify Is a Good Solution If You Just Need to Get Started Soon.

Shopify is a great option for a small business needing to launch an online store fast. SUURV Marketing can have a first build of your business ready to go in a matter of days. We can add your products, personalize the appearance of your store, connect it with your domain of choice, and set up the payment gateway.

Shopify's user-friendly web interface allows our clients to add products and services when they become available. You can enter the name, price, quantity available, and any other pertinent information. After you set the status to “Active,” the item is immediately available for sale in your online store. In addition, Shopify’s flexibility and app store make it such a powerful tool to consider when WooCommerce is not the best option for your business.
