"Ashop has done more for my online lead generation in six weeks, than my previous website did in two years! At the end of the day that is what your online business is all about, generating leads and making sales. Ashop does it, simple. I have been an Ashop customer for about a year now, starting with designahat.com.au a simple online store. I was a little hesitant and cautious as I had not had very much success with online trading, and I wanted more control over the content of my site. I was very pleased with how easy the shopping cart was to set up and design, and how helpful the Ashop staff were. The support and back up are second to none, with offices in the UK and the USA as well as Australia, even if it is the middle of the night where you are, there is usually someone to help answer a dumb question using the online support. Yes your questions are answered by real people! Since that time I have opened 3 more Ashop shopping carts: budoshop.com.au – A retail online store selling karate merchandise to an international marketplace. Ashop has features like “Currency selection” which means my international customers can choose the currency they want to deal in, and the whole shop changes automatically. The shopping cart is simple and secure, and I have never had a customer have any trouble using the checkout system. hubbyshop.com.au – A store I have built for one of my clients, so their franchisees can buy merchandise directly from me and bypass head office, saving time, money and hassle for my client and their franchisees. blackdogpromotions.com.au – This is my main business site, which I use in “catalogue mode”, a feature I can activate with a click of my mouse that turns my Ashop store into a catalogue rather than a shopping cart. Ashop designed this store for me in around seven working days, this is the only store I had them design for me, and I was very pleased with the end result. The four different types of stores I use demonstrate the versatility of the Ashop shopping cart software, I can’t imagine there are many businesses that couldn’t benefit from this type of store, even if you don’t need an online store, you can create an online catalogue or information site that is totally under your control and Google friendly. Ashop is: - Cheap - Easy to use - Versatile - Secure - Search engine friendly - Browser friendly - Marketing friendly - (and most of all) Sales friendly There is no reason why Ashop can’t improve anyone’s business."
