Port Washington, WI
Wednesday, September 26, 2007
PORT WASHINGTON, Wisconsin, September 25, 2007 -- Ecommerce shopping cart software is necessary for anyone who does business on the Internet, but choosing an ecommerce shopping cart doesn't have to be confusing.
Internet marketer Joan Stewart, who is offering the free ebook "Internet Cash Machines: How to Pick a Shopping Cart System That Makes You Money," says that if you're looking for good ecommerce shopping cart software, look for 27 features:
--A web-based administrative page. If your electronic shopping cart software has a web-based managers' administration page, then you can work on your shopping cart (add products, change prices, etc.) anywhere in the world, not only on your office computer.
--Associate/affiliate program compatible. Someone else should be able to put your link on their website and sell your products and services for a commission.
--Upsell module. Ecommerce shopping cart software should give you the ability to "upsell" your customer to a related product or service.
--Broadcast capability. Good ecommerce shopping cart software has integrated email capabilities that can allow you to sort customers, and email them immediately.
--Integrated autoresponders. Sequential autoresponders are one of the most powerful sales tools on the Internet today, and your ecommerce shopping cart software should let you send emails to customers and prospects automatically. Only the most advanced ecommerce shopping carts would have this function integrated.
--Hard and soft products. A good cart will let a customer buy a hard product, which you have to ship, on the same order form as a soft product, such as an electronic ebook that the customer can download as soon as the order has been approved.
--Calculate shipping and tax. Make sure your ecommerce shopping cart has several options on how to calculate basic shipping charges.
--Customizable "return to shopping" pages. Where you send your customers after they add a particular item to their cart can mean a big difference in the amount of money they spend with you. Sophisticated shopping cart software allows you to customize the "return to shopping cart" button so it takes the customer to a related product of their choice.
--Good ecommerce shopping cart software will let you offer discounts for multiple purchases or to offer "one free when you buy three" or similar special offers.
--The shopping cart should be able to send an email confirmation automatically to the customer and automatically generate a receipt for you to put in the package if you are shipping a product.
--Multiple order and drop-ship email capability. The ecommerce shopping cart software should be able to email suppliers who ship directly to your customer (drop-ship) without including the customer's credit card information.
