eCommerce Websites

Nowadays, most of us book our holidays, order goods and arrange services online via eCommerce websites.

An eCommerce Website is a great way to display your products and services, process sales and take payments automatically.

Your website’s Content Management System will makes it easy to create, update and alter your online brochure, display your prices, add items to a shopping basket, process the payment and generate a report stating what items have been ordered, delivery address, etc.

Your advanced eCommerce website system can also be made to fully integrate with your Amazon and eBay listings, plus your warehouse and accounting software.

What is an eCommerce Website?

Just like the old days when we produced advertising, leaflets and catalogues “off-line”, an eCommerce Website is designed to display the products which you offer, using a combination of words, pictures, video and audio.

It helps to create an online presence of which you can be totally in control, helping to build awareness of your products, services or brand. It can be engineered to create online sales and process them automatically.

A simple stand-alone eCommerce Website eliminates the need for a sales team and is intended to generate business for you automatically while you take care of the physical part of deliverying your service or products to your customers.

An eCommerce Website is effectively an online interactive equivalent to a traditional brochure or catalogue, produced and distributed for a fraction of the cost of the traditional printed equivalent, and there is no need to print and re-print every time you want to update your range of products or services, address, phone number, etc.

But the big difference is that it also takes and processes your customers’ orders automatically.

Why choose an eCommerce Website for my business?

Three words: automated, efficient, profitable.

We can design, create and launch an eCommerce Website for you in as little as one month.

Just provide us with your images, descriptions of your business, its products and services and we will generate the look-and-feel of the online brochure in our content management system within one or two weeks. We will then apply order processing and financial transaction processing modules.

Here at Tandem Online, we will customise your eCommerce Website layout to match your brand identity and provide an easy, simplified navigation process for your customers. And your product/services pages will be fully optimised so that they are visible to the search engines (Google, etc.), which will enable your customers to easily find your products and services online.

For clients with multi-channel sales platforms including retail outlets, mail order, telesales, online marketplaces (e.g. eBay and Amazon), we can build in a manual “human” front-end, integrated with POS and electronic feeds, to help manage stock control, warehouse management and financial accounting. These more complex projects can take more time and budget to put together, and may require some bespoke coding to fully integrate with your existing business systems. All of this can be explored during our initial discussions.

It can grow and evolve along with your business, as it adapts to changes in its market and in response to its competitors. The integrated eCommerce management system will allow you to easily manage sales from multiple shopping channels from a single, easy-to-use interface that can be accessed from any device with an internet connection. If you own a store, a website, sell on eBay and Amazon too, it can often be difficult and time consuming to manage stock levels, customer information and orders. Our system solves this problem, giving you a single application where you can manage all customers, orders and stock with multiple sales channels. This means your processes are automated and streamlined, giving you the time needed to focus on growing your business.
