Bringing retail business online is Stearns Design’s forte. We have been designing a wide range of eStores for companies since 1996 and continue to lead our clients to huge profits online. Stearns Design will work with you not only to set up your eCommerce site, but also all the additional marketing, merchandising, fulfillment and customer care elements needed to create a prosperous online business.

Elements of an online store are:

• The products you want to sell
  
  
• A Website to display and sell the product
  
  
• A way to get people to come to your Website
  
  
• A way to accept orders - either a cart or sometimes just an on-line form
  
  
• A secure way to accept money - usually through a merchant account to handle credit card payments. Or you may use more traditional billing techniques either online or through the mail.
  
  
• A fulfillment facility to ship products to customers.
  
  
• A way to accept returns
  
  
• A way to provide customer service - by email, online forms, FAQs, or a call center.
