STAFDA - Evaluating E-Commerce Software Webinar

Tue, Apr 21, 2015 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM CDT

What You Will Learn
E-commerce has become a must-have for distributors. Customers expect to place an order via any sales channel: direct rep, catalog, branch, phone, web, or mobile device. To successfully deploy an e-commerce site, significant thought must be given to how the four key functional areas support your strategy. Even then, many e-commerce sites have a short life because they don’t deliver the desired results. Other qualitative factors must be considered to deliver a satisfying customer experience. This webinar will review the key components of implementing an e-commerce site and the top qualitative factors to make it a success.

This free program will cover:
* The four key functional areas of any e-commerce suite
* Critical features that every e-commerce solution should contain
* A review of the most important qualitative attributes (usability, navigation, security) that result in better customer experiences.

This will be a fast-paced 45 minute, content rich session followed by a 15 minute question and answer session.
