|
| Browser-Based Interface |
|
| To use ShopSite, all you need is a Web browser. With your Web browser you administer your store using ShopSite's intuitive user interface. Because you don't need to load any software onto your PC, you can update prices, view orders, or add products to your store from any computer in the world. | |
| Store Setup Wizard |
|
| The first time you use ShopSite, the ShopSite Store Setup Wizard will help you enter products, create pages, and set up your store for commerce. Within a few minutes you can have a simple store ready to take orders. | |
| Commerce-Enable Existing Web Sites |
|
| Do you want to add a shopping cart to a Web site that you already have? With ShopSite you don't have to start from scratch. Simply open up your existing page in the Web editing program of your choice (FrontPage, Dreamweaver, Notepad, etc.) and drag or paste order buttons from ShopSite directly onto your existing page. Within a matter of minutes you can have your existing Web site ready to take orders. | |
| Works With Any Web Editing Tools |
|
| There are dozens of great web-editing tools on the market today. Some, like Microsoft FrontPage or Adobe GoLive, make creating pages, image maps, etc. a piece of cake. Others, like Adobe PhotoShop or Macromedia Fireworks, make it simple to create nice graphics, complete with JavaScript rollovers. We've made it easy for you to use ShopSite with products such as these. Every ShopSite catalog page can be customized with HTML or JavaScript pasted directly from one of these programs. Or, you can build your entire site in a program like FrontPage, and just use ShopSite to commerce-enable your pages. And, of course, ShopSite gladly accepts all the nifty graphics you want. | |
| Real-time credit card processing |
|
| Online stores that don't accept credit cards lose sales. You can easily configure ShopSite to work with any of several payment gateways, which means that your customers can pay quickly and easily, which can lead to more sales. Learn all about Credit Card Processing in ShopSite. | |
| PayPal Payment Method |
|
| You can configure any ShopSite store to let customer pay through PayPal. PayPal allows merchants to accept credit card payments without the need for a merchant account, plus shoppers can pay with funds from a bank account or other source. PayPal also supports international payments, and is available in over 35 countries. Learn all about using PayPal in ShopSite. | |
| Flexible Shipping and Handling Options |
|
| ShopSite makes it easy to configure shipping and handling options based on any number of methods. You can choose multiple shipping methods based on the shipment company (UPS, your local postal service, Albatross Air, etc.) and the shipment method (per product, by total weight, by flat rate, etc.). You can apply shipping charges on a per-product or per-order basis (or both) either as fixed charges or based on the order subtotal, shipping weight, number of products, or shipping charges. You can even provide shipping box dimensions for dimensional weight calculations. | |
| Flexible Tax Options |
|
| Sales tax in online stores can be very simple in some locations, and quite complex in others. With ShopSite's flexible menus and options, you can configure multiple tax options, including tax on shipping if necessary. | |
| Unrestricted Number of Products and Pages |
|
| ShopSite Pro and ShopSite Manager both let you add as many products and pages to your store as you need. ShopSite Starter is limited to 15 products and 5 pages. | |
| Real-time UPS Rates and Services |
|
| ShopSite offers a flexible, powerful integration with United Parcel Service. As the merchant, you can configure which UPS shipping services you'd like to offer. When a customer enters a shipping ZIP/postal code in the shopping cart, ShopSite will display actual UPS rates to ship their order by each of the available methods. You can also enable UPS address validation to ensure that customers enter valid address information. Learn more about UPS in Shopsite. | |
| ZIP/Postal Code-Based Tax Calculation |
|
| ShopSite Pro and ShopSite Manager stores can calculate tax based on customer ZIP/postal codes and a merchant-supplied rate table. You're assured of always collecting the tax rate that you set for the customer's shipping address. | |
| Order Download into QuickBooks |
|
| Are you using Intuit QuickBooks to manage your business? ShopSite can easily download order information in QuickBooks for Windows format (IIF file) so that you can track sales and profits right in your accounting system. And with our optional ShopSite Order Transfer product, you can automatically download orders in QBXML format from ShopSite Pro right into QuickBooks. | |
| Data Import Wizard (bulk upload) |
|
| You've got a thousand products stored in an offline database. Re-keying those products into your online store could take a lot of time--and money. ShopSite makes it easy to get those products into your store. Simply save the products in tab-delimited file (any database or spreadsheet will do this), and use ShopSite's upload wizard to import the data into your store. Within a few minutes, a thousand products are part of your online store. | |
| Per-Option Pricing |
|
| You sell computer systems. Your base model comes with an 40 GB hard drive. But customers can upgrade to a 80 GB hard drive for $100. With ShopSite, you can easily create unlimited configuration options (like hard drive, RAM, and monitor size)--each of which can increase or decrease the price of the product. This feature can be used to sell special packages as well. For instance, your cordless drill costs $109, but when purchased with a drill bit set (value=$20) the package costs only $115. What a deal! ShopSite makes it easy for you to create this kind of an option for the shopper. | |
| Product Upsell/Cross-sell |
|
| Let's say you are selling a nice cordless drill. You also sell a great set of drill bits. With ShopSite it is easy to upsell from just the drill alone to a drill/bit set pack, or to use suggestive selling to encourage your customer to purchase bits with the drill. Either way, you can easily present shoppers with multiple opportunities to buy more at your store. | |
| Put Products On Sale |
|
| Displaying sale items with ShopSite is a breeze. You simply enter the sale price (or % off regular price) and voila, ShopSite displays the regular price, the sale price, and can even display a customizable "on sale" graphic. | |
| PowerEdit |
|
| Let's say you need to change the price on twenty products. All you want to do is type in the new price for the products, not scroll through all the information for each product, clicking "next" endlessly just to get to the information you need. With ShopSite Power Edit, you can simply highlight the products you want to edit, choose to edit price, and then type in the price for each of the twenty products. With just a couple clicks your store is updated with the new information. (By the way, this is possible for any ShopSite field!) | |
| Global PowerEdit |
|
| You've just decided to run a sale on all your drills--all 70 of them. Instead of changing the price for each product individually, simply use ShopSite's Global Power Edit feature to change the price of all of them at the same time. You simply highlight all the drills, select to edit universally, and then type in the sale price (say 20% off). ShopSite automatically calculates the sale price, updates the pricing, and even displays a customizable sale graphic if you like. You type the sale price in once, and all 70 products get updated. | |
| Customer Registration |
|
| Customers can register at ShopSite Pro stores to make ordering quicker and easier. ShopSite remembers customers, including preferred payment methods and previous "ship to" addresses. Merchants can assign customers to different customer groups, and give each group it's own coupons for discounts to entice customers back to the store or to reward regular customers. | |
| Mini Cart on Store Pages |
|
| The ShopSite mini cart is just the thing to keep customers updated on the status of their shopping cart while they continue to peruse your product pages. With a simple tweak of a custom template, you can change the style of the mini cart to show more or less information. | |
| Digital Coupons |
|
| Want to entice surfers into your store? Want to convert browsers to buyers? Use ShopSite's coupon feature to offer discounts! You can create coupons for a specific product, a list of products, or entire orders. You can offer currency or percent discounts, and you can tie a discount to a minimum order ("Save 20% when you buy three or more!"). You can send coupons in e-mail, display them in banner ads, or place them on pages in your store. You can also create coupon codes that customers enter on the shopping cart screen to apply a coupon. | |
| Associates Tracking |
|
| Amazon.com has turned a simple business idea into a great success. To extend their reach, they offered anyone who refers them business a cut of the sales they refer. These sites are called "associate sites." ShopSite makes it easy for you to set up associates, track all sales coming from associate sites, notify associates of orders, and even calculate commissions owed to each associate. | |
| Advanced Product Pricing |
|
| ShopSite Starter offers standard product pricing and ShopSite Manager lets you put products on sale, but ShopSite Pro has additional advanced pricing options. Offer your customers quantity pricing -- one or two may be good, but 10 or 20 is better (and cheaper). If you sell products at auctions or take donations, you can enable variable pricing so that customers can enter the amount they'd like to pay. You can even encourage customers to spend more at your store by offering order discounts when the order subtotal reaches a set amount. | |
| Digital Downloads |
|
| ShopSite Pro lets you sell software and documents that customers can download right after they complete the purchase. They can either click the product name right on the receipt, or receive the download link via e-mail. While making it easy for you (no shipping!), ShopSite protects your files from unauthorized access. | |
| Inventory Tracking |
|
| Want to keep track of sales so that you'll know when to reorder products? How about limiting sales so that you don't oversell a limited-edition product or one that you don't want to reorder? ShopSite's inventory tracking feature can do that for you, and can even send you e-mail messages when stock of a product is low or out. It also can prevent customers from ordering a product that is out of stock. | |
