According to a U.S. Census Bureau report released May 26, 2011, e-commerce sales were $145 billion in 2009, up from $142 billion in 2008. That now represents 4% of total retail sales, the largest number ever.
As online retail continues to grow, it is becoming increasingly important for retailers to take advantage of the limitless online clientele base. Traditional retailers often work years — sometimes for decades — to carve out a niche in their community. But the online niche can quickly be filled by a competitor...a competitor that might be hundreds of miles away.
There are no bridges to gap in the online marketplace. Retailers who aren't taking advantage of e-commerce opportunities are missing out on potential sales.
At Garrett Multimedia, we can work with your company to establish an e-commerce solution that introduces your products and services to that expanded clientele. Using secure servers and shopping cart solutions with your existing credit card processors and shipping companies, we can jump-start your presence in the online marketplace. Ready to open your store front to a much broader customer base? Give us a call or email us today!
