(NC) Growing your online presence is important for many businesses across Canada. With the right online storefront, you can enhance the customer experience beyond your physical store by making it more convenient, personalized and simple, while also reducing operating costs and boosting ROI.
Business owners should look for a customizable eCommerce platform, such as TD eCommerce Solutions, an all-in-one platform supported by BigCommerce, so they can begin selling their products and services online and accept payments with ease. Seek out features such as intuitive webstore design tools, an easy-to use storefront, inventory and order management, and streamlined billing services.
“We recognize the vital role small businesses play in the Canadian economy, driving innovation, creating jobs and boosting communities,” said Alec Morley, senior vice president, Canadian Small Business Banking at TD. “As a bank committed to supporting local businesses, we’re proud to help our customers succeed by providing them with eCommerce tools and trusted solutions that support their growing businesses and help them reach new customers.”
Key features to look for
Optimization, fraud detection and multiple payment acceptance offerings as businesses grow and evolve are all key features to look for in an eCommerce platform. With these capabilities businesses can take advantage of streamlined billing allowing businesses to manage payments to multiple parties.
When comparing different platforms, it’s important to know what type of support is available, particularly when you’re launching a new site as many questions will inevitably come up. Look for a platform that provides a single onboarding experience and includes a contact centre and technical support.
“Offering online purchasing was once considered optional, but in this post-pandemic era, we know that purchase patterns have changed and that significant transactions are made online,” says Morley. “Our customers want to have a presence in digital buying, and that's what we will deliver.”
