Sure, there are lots of canned ten-minute solutions that will get you a website quickly… but that’s just the tip of the iceberg for creating a truly successful online business. Don’t forget all the challenges that face every new online retailer: technical headaches; the cost of managing and training your staff to properly process electronic orders; and inventory management (better make sure those online numbers are accurate!). And then? Time for online marketing! Getting your sites noticed online includes a whole new set of challenges related to everybody’s favorite: search engine optimization!

Assuming you’ve gotten that far with your sanity intact you’ll want to get your merchant credit card accounts set up, train your staff in online fraud protection, arrange shipping accounts with several major carriers, build a shipping department, and deal with all the labels and the hassles.

It hurts. We’ve been there. We can help.
