Criteria For Shopping Cart Software - Wizards To Get The Job Done - Part 3 -
In the final series of posts about WebCart’s Wizard, I will try to give a brief overview of some of the effortless tools we have added to WebCart to make the webmasters life easier. The way I look at it is simple, you’re paying for a shopping cart solution with your hard earned cash The reason you are paying for it is because you don’t want to do it your self. What good is a shopping cart if you have to spend hundreds of dollars buying mods, or worse paying someone to configure your cart once you purchased it?
Let’s See What the criteria for shopping cart software is all about
Step 6
Configuration:
This by far is the easiest to use module. You know how with osCommerce, if you don’t want to edit your header file you could just upload a logo with the filename logo.gif images directory and by doing so you will override the default osCommerce logo. If you didn’t know that now you know how to change your logo with OS commerce. With WebCart it becomes even simpler because all you have to do is click on step 6 and upload your logo. That’s it no ftp or editing everything you need is inside your wizard.
Step 7
Marketing:
What good is your store if you don’t have a marketing plan? The good news is developers of WebCart were very conscious about having marking become an integral park of the cart therefore, with every version of WebCart 11 users can utilize the affiliates, discounts, and gift certificate module to market their online stores. Step 7 in the wizard makes marketing even easier because it lays everything out in a simple and straight forward way making what used to take hours, now take only 10 min.
Step 8
Bulk Upload:
Here is a really nifty tool I developed for products and categories. Say for example, you have thousands of different products available for sale. With osCommerce you have to manually type in each product and each category. However, with the new WebCart wizard, the entire process of uploading your products and categories, should take less then 10 min.
Step 9
Email Confirmation Set Up:
The final step of the wizard is to write every possible email you might want to send your customers. The easy intuitive interface of step 9 makes writing your email a breeze and smart tags (which I will explain in a later post) make customization easy, so that all your emails are personalized to every user.
