Google Affiliates

Anyone know much revenue you need to pull in to qualify?

Free Comparison Shopping Engines

Talking about Comparison Shopping Engines (aka CSEs) with colleagues or peers in online marketing will get you mixed reactions because the results are equally mixed. Some retailers turn on CSEs during the holidays while others maintain a presence year round. How yoou approach it depends largely on your budget and plans. However, you owe it to yourself to check out TheFind! (www.thefind.com) and ShopWiki (www.shopwiki.com) which are two free CSEs. I recently got a client on TheFind! and it generated sales within two days of going live and is still pumping out results.

Complete End to End Enterprise Ecommerce Solution

MJM Ecommerce is growing and it's been a very fun summer for us. We’ve signed on some exciting partners for complete ecommerce implementation and management and others for online marketing management. We’ve also teamed up with a prominent Memphis agency to provide online marketing services for their clients.

Perhaps one of the most exciting developments has been the recent inclusion of a call center and fulfillment facility. This is particularly exciting because now we are able to truly provide a complete end to end ecommerce business solution to our partners. We’ll be able to provide a robust ecommerce platform, design, marketing, strategy, call center and fulfillment solution to businesses that want to start an online business or improve an existing one.

The call center specifically presents an opportunity for our partners to grow their business because it allows agents to interact with customers and guide them through the buying process. Essentially, this creates another sales channel for the business that is extremely important. Through our collective experience, a call center can generate around 30-40% of revenue for an online business. It’s important to note that a professional call center is more effective than having store employees answer calls during their shift to provide customer service.

If you’re interested in learning more about our complete end to end solution we invite you to contact MJM Ecommerce.
