E-commerce

E-commerce has led to the success of some of the world's top companies. Amazon.com was launched in 1995 as an online book seller. By 2008 their revenue had grown to over 19 billion and they had greatly expanded their product range. This type of amazing growth would be impossible with a traditional bricks and mortar store.

Product Sales
Studio Mercury will develop an e-commerce solution that fits the needs of your business. Selling products online opens up markets all over the world. Selling online is all about location, location, location! What does "location" mean online? Effective online product marketing often requires more than just selling on your own website, we help you find other marketplaces to sell and advertise your products. It's not uncommon to discover greater profit potential through a reputable third party vendor. Third party vendors do not replace marketing online with your own website, but rather it compliments an overall online strategy. We help you find many prime locations, each returning a handsome ROI.

Selling Services
Selling services online requires a different approach. Often, services are confined to a geographic area. Therefore, it's important to leverage relevant local business relationships, publications and online resources to elicit qualified local traffic that has a high likelihood of converting into a sale.
