1. Choose the Right Technology
One of the most important decisions you should make with any e-commerce solution is the technology it was built on. One of the worst mistakes many people make is building their business off of older technologies, which happens every day. Since technology is the fastest changing industry, it's important that you are aware whether you're buying new technology or old out-dated technology.
2. Choose a Feature Rich Platform
With an extensive list of features it's easy to see that your storefront will have all it needs to be successful. You will see increased sales from doing it the old-fashioned way, decreased cost vs.. a brick and mortar storefront, increased profit (knowing that profit isn't the same as sales), expanding the size of your "reach" from local to regional to national and even international! The list goes on and on with benefits of using a storefront based solution to selling online. The cost of marketing your company and its products goes down with an increase in overall visibility.
3. Get Certified Security
When developing an e-commerce store, you need a secure platform to ensure your customer's have a quality experience. With Incartia, you are choosing to use an elite E-Commerce shopping cart platform that has been certified through the Visa Payment Application Best Practice (PABP) assessment. What does this mean to you? This means you'll be getting a secure system that other E-Commerce platforms may not. If you choose a NON PABP certified shopping cart platform, your business could be shut down by VISA in 2008! Why take the risk?
4. A Professional Support Team
While selecting a company to work with, you need to make sure you choose one that is truly there to help you. If you do find yourself stuck, are you able to contact someone and get the answers you need to keep your business running smoothly? Do you get free product updates and releases? Is the support free or are their hidden costs? Incartia is proud to offer free live chat and 24 hour 7 days a week live phone support. This is like having your own personal IT team available whenever you need them. And you'll always get our latest updates and releases with no hidden fees. Your success is important to us, and we'll be here for you every step of the way!
5. Get a 100% Money Back Guaranteed Free Trial
Like any educated purchase in life, you should always be able to try it before you buy it. Does the e-commerce solution offer you a free trial? Are there hidden fees? How about transaction charges? If you decide not to purchase, do you have a money back guarantee? These are all very important questions, because many companies will try to lock you into a purchase without really letting you experience what you're buying. Be sure you choose a solution that isn't afraid to let you take a little test drive. At Incartia- we encourage it! And with our 100% money back guarantee, no hidden fees, and no transaction charges- what do you have to lose?
