Thanks to our extensive experience building, over the last decade, countless successful virtual shops, we believe that building your virtual shop will prove a winning business decision.
What is a virtual shop?
A virtual shop is an Internet website that enables surfers to choose products, pay for them online and have them delivered to them by messenger. This is the essence of the matter.
In order to enable a business to operate a virtual shop, we provide its owner a simple and easy to use management interface through which the entire product catalog and purchase orders can be managed.
What is the difference between a virtual shop and an e-Commerce website?
The difference between the two is merely semantic: generally, what is referred to by virtual shop is a relatively concise e-Commerce website, which provides the business owner and the web surfers the basic tools to complete a business transaction.
The term e-Commerce website generally refers to sales portals and large commercial websites, which enhance the brand image, provide advanced user experience capabilities, advanced management capabilities, integration with external systems, and advanced functional capabilities.
How does the virtual shop contribute to the success of the business?
A virtual shop is a sales channel. For certain businesses it is the only sales channel. In such instances the answer to the question is clear.
For other businesses, the virtual shop provides an additional sales channel. Whether a single shop or a chain of stores with many branches, the virtual shop is simply an additional branch.
Unlike the other braches, the physical location is irrelevant and its operating costs are significantly lower. When it opens, the business enjoys an additional sales channel which often caters to other target audiences than its traditional ones, and competes in a different sales environment.
How to build a virtual shop that brings results?
Building a successful virtual shop is a two-phased process:
Phase one – constructing the virtual shop
We, at cdtech, execute even the simplest commercial application on the highest level, just as we have done over 100 times during the last decade. We use a quick, proven yet methodological and thorough process to build the virtual shop, at the end of which we offer a product of the highest technological and graphic quality. The work process has 4 stages:
- Design, concept and strategy
- Design the user experience and user interface
- Graphic design
- Technological development
Phase two – routine management of the virtual shop
We see ourselves partners to our customer’s online businesses. Together, we determine the business goals, define the course of action and implement it in order to achieve the goals.
We check our performance routinely, learn from our mistakes and repeat successes, update goals and finally achieve the goals we had defined.
The Web Agency service includes, among others:
· Routine meetings
· Performance reports and recommendations
· Dashboard effectiveness in the content management system
· Continuous professional advise from our best experts
· Use of any tool available to us in order to achieve the wanted results
