Enter the global sales market with Forbes and Associates and Top Kart , a robust application that allows you to sell tangible products and also downloadable products. Hyper Design Enterprises has modified the renown e-commerce software osCommerce and turned it into a completely custom package that is extensive in administration and operation.

Store configuration is a snap . From the administration pages, you can set up store information, decide whether to check stock levels, or whether to let customers write reviews of the products. Adding a product is simple enough. Just set the new product date, quantity, name, description and a few other entries. There are multiple ways to collect payment, including checks, CODs, or credit cards. Top Kart works excellently with Linkpoint services . Shipping rates can be set up in various ways, UPS and USPS live rates to correctly estimate shipping cost or even table rates based on price or weight.

Actually, "stores" is the correct term because with this package multiple store fronts can be created - with each controlled through the administration area. Each store is independent of the other, yet a product can be used in multiple stores. This is an excellent way for the store with a large inventory to create a "Department" like store. Theme stores are another option that help to attract customers and convert them to sales quickly.

Another benefit of this package is multiple administrators at the store level. The first registered administrator has full options for the stores; additional administrators can be given full control over multiple stores or over only one store. Even within this context they can have restricted access, such as access to products only but not to the marketing section. With this level of control the store owner doesn't have to do everything , and can let others help without the worry of giving away too much control.

At Forbes and Associates, we have also added the ability to create and track advertising campaigns. Create a campaign for the store and give out a specially crafted link to the advertiser. When a visitor clicks on the special link at the advertiser's Web site it will be recorded in your store. This technique is being successfully used in Google Ad word, Froogle, BizRate, BidHopper, Value Target, and Yahoo Stores campaigns. And with the cost-per-click included in the link, the program itself is conducting a running total of campaign costs.
