NJR web design & marketing partnership designed and maintain the Sports wear web site for CF Sports. Apart from selling to the general public this e-commerce site also includes about 400 club shops.
Not only do the clubs benefit from having uniform club wear but the site also generates a sales rebate for each purchase that the club members make. There is a programmed report function for CF Sports and the club secretary to login and check the rebate due.
The initial stocking and on-going operation and servicing of a large e-commerce site is time consuming for both client and NJR Partnership. However, we would not want it to be any other as the power of the interent to sell remotely is growing all the time.
The screen grabs show some of the functions and possibilities that the Content Management System offers. In addition to the out of the box product NJR web design & marketing partnership can customize any oscommerce site to your exact requirements. For instance, the creation of private club shops and the sales rebate function were client requests that were delivered.
Within the CF Sports project, NJR Partnership are developing the branding for the “Proskins” isotherm compression wear and have created Joomla site to compliment the on-line selling as a place to publish information about new products and retail outlets - see www.cricketfirst.co.uk
Durham Trophies earlier this year made the decision to upgrade their website to a full e-commerce site with a comprehensive on-line catalogue of products. NJR Partnership have adapted the popular open source package oscommerce to meet this clients specific requirement.
At the checkout for each item ordered is a field to input the required engraving for the trophy. This facility is a weakness of other Trophy web sites as accuracy of messages is very important for engravings.
Recently Durham Trophies decided to add product from another supplier to their site. NJR Partnership speeded up this process by preparing a spreadsheet for client to input all prices, product descriptions etc. : this completed spreadsheet was then uploaded to the site product database rather than the alternative option manually inserting each product into the site.
Within a week of launch the site has started selling and that is before any pay per click advertising.
Hand made by Val is NJR Partnership's first e-commerce web site produced using the open source component for Joomla called Virtuemart.
The site features a purpose designed template to display these unique handicraft products and allow for a full range of other Content Management functions to be used.
