Of all the things you can do when you start your online business, whether your goal is to open a furniture store, sell electronics, ebooks or cosmetics, simplifying your checkout process is one of the most important.
Eliminating as many steps as possible for the customer between making the purchase decision and paying for the item offers a number of benefits for your business.
The IMRG Capgemini eRetail Sales Index has revealed the value of online retail sales grew +18.9% year-on-year (YoY) in October. This was building on a comparatively low rate in October 2015 (when growth was +8.7%), but it still represents the highest YoY growth rate in any month since November 2014, when Black Friday had a huge impact on pre-Christmas shopping patterns.
Interestingly, the Index also recorded its lowest conversion rate – the percentage of website visits that result in sales – since February 2013, at just 4.1%*. This may suggest that, ahead of Black Friday this year, increasing numbers of people are visiting company websites to browse and build wish-lists. Although this may initially seem to contradict the high overall Index growth, it may have been sustained by a significant increase in both the number of site visitors and the amount of impulse purchasing completed at full price whilst browsing.

Exclusive : How you can transform any touchscreen into a Giant Smartphone … Mark Jones at Giant iTab
Big news from Mark Jones at Giant iTab . He writes ...we are launching our new 'iTab' core, an android Pc which transforms any Touchscreen into a Giant Smartphone (Giant iTab).
This can now be supplied as a 'Plug and Play' solution for resellers and end-users to purchase and sell this 'out of the box' solution which will be sold through channel distribution and reseller partners. This is the first time Touch2view or Giant iTab have been able to create a channel product due to the complexity of their previous Giant iTab solution. [more…]
Mark Bateman writes.. Working with a number of fast growth companies at the moment - all worthy of mention.
This week was with Mark, Jacob and Daniel who are world leaders - their GiantiTab is the largest phone in the world. If you're looking for guaranteed digital engagement these are the guys to talk to! If playing Angry Birds on your event stand sounds attractive, or showcasing your iOS/android app is important to you - look no further!
