Ecommerce and Data Integration PDF Print E-mail


For small businesses, e-commerce web sites are often major pain centers. Someone has to figure out how to add and update product information, not to mention create the initial catalog entries--maybe even for tens of thousands of products! Then there is the whole matter of accounting... web orders sometimes become orphans that have to be manually entered into accounting systems like QuickBooks.


In short, a web site can require a major investment in ongoing (and mind-numbing) labor. And these are over and above the technical expenses, too.


Ecommerce Empires was born of the need to regularly import and update about 14,000 products from a manufacturer data feed. As we progressed with this project, we developed both an architecture and a methodology for quickly assimilating manufacturer data. If you sell products from a manufacturer that provides a data feed, we can automatically incorporate that product data into your store. Guaranteed.*


And if one or more of your manufacturers does not provide a feed, we can probably still get the product data: We have built a customizable screen scraper that pulls the data right off the web.


After you make a sale, we also make sure your data is not orphaned. We're adept at getting order data where you need it to go. Whether you use QuickBooks or a full-fledged ERP system, we can get your order data safely home.
 

*Assuming the data feed has all the necessary data, of course.
