It's no secret that online stores have become a well-established and common way to generate sales 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. With the right e-commerce solution, you can attract more customers and increase sales exponentially. You probably already know that there are countless pre-fabricated, cookie-cutter shopping cart software systems available. All too often, though, such solutions are not only difficult (if not impossible) to customize to your unique and individual needs, but are also overloaded with superfluous, complex and cumbersome controls and features that result in a steep and intimidating learning curve.

Custom-designed online stores from Coastal Graphics Inc. are different. We'll build you an effective online store that will conform to your business model and operational needs ... not the other way around.

To us, our e-commerce systems are not so much a product that we sell you, but rather a service consisting of a design and construction process accomplished through a close cooperative effort with you.
Our solutions are crafted specifically for you, thus providing you with an easy to use, clear and dependable vehicle that can consistently generate online sales.

Our E-Commerce System Design Approach Is Simple And Straight Forward, And Includes These Steps:
|
|
|
Formulate A Commercially Sound Online Business Model.
|
|
|
We start by reviewing both the strengths and limitations of your present situation, and help you to refine your vision as to how to best provide additional value to both new and existing customers through an interactive online venue.
|
|
|
Asses Your Competitive Situation And Available Resource Commitment.
|
|
|
We consider the current online assets of your competition, and determine their relative strengths and weaknesses. We then review your time, human, infrastructural and financial resources, so as to ensure that the strategy we ultimately propose will be within your ability to successfully manage.
|
|
|
Select Appropriate Solutions Based Upon A Cost-Benefit Analysis.
|
|
|
We compile a prioritized list of the e-commerce functions and abilities that your budget will allow for, and then select the features that we believe to be the most central to your particular business goals.
|
|
|
Construct Preliminary System Prototypes For Your Critique And Review.
|
|
|
We create non-functioning and/or semi-functioning proposed designs/prototypes for both public and administrative system sections (i.e. online stores, tentative informational libraries, individual administrative accounts, etc.), and make subsequent alterations to the system design, layout and configuration as instructed by you.
|
|
|
System Development, Construction, and Launch.
|
|
|
Once you have approved the preliminary system prototypes, we proceed with system development. We then activate your new e-commerce system live on the web, either integrating it with your existing website or launching it as a new, independent online presence.
