Web Based Services

At Shoals Technology Services we partner with our clients to empower them with all of the professional resources to expand their businesses to the Internet. Imagine millions of potential customers exposed to your unique products and services. Would that increase the chances of your business expanding and thriving in these tough economic times? Add to that not having to pay a large rent bill every month, or cover the financial burdens of a large inventory.  Large and small companies alike are discovering the Internet, and the potential it represents. A recent survey found that upwards of 74% of medium and large businesses in North America are planning to make use of the Internet for intercommunications and an information resource.  Fully 43% are interested in selling their services or goods directly on the Web.

An AC Nielsen survey recently reported that 53 percent of online shoppers planned to buy even more on the Internet in the coming year. Why? It seems customers – who once were reluctant to try online shopping – discovered a new level of convenience, speed, selection and security after ordering online.

The irony is that even though consumers have overcome their initial doubts about Internet shopping, many small businesses are holding back from leveraging all they can from e-commerce. The problem here is a perception – often misguided – about what it takes to start an online store that sells directly to consumers.  Concerns that small business owners may have include:

• The cost of maintaining an online operation.
• Fear of technology and inexperience with the online medium.
• Perceptions of complicated set-up processes.

Today, entrepreneurs have access to a global marketplace that allows small businesses to grow. Equipped with the right tools, resources and expertise, the time has never been better for small business owners to take the plunge and make the move to the web. Contact Shoals Technology Services today!
