Hello everyone.....I am the Cable Guy. ShowMeCables has been around for 10 years and we have been on the web for 16 months. Our site
www.showmecables.com sells cables and connectors to the video, voice, data and computer industries.
We are very excited about having over 10,000 new customers buy from us in the past 12 months.
We think we are just scratching the surface of this channel and are really excited about the future. We are in St. Louis Missouri.
We believe in a few basic things about e-commerce....
1:either be in it or get out! If you truly want to be successful e-tailing you must be very serious and work your tail off.
2: E-commerce is not brick and mortar....there is no window-shopping. You either advertise your store or you might as well not be in the business.
3: make your site as easy to use as possible
4: be the low cost provider....it is very hard to build relationships on the web. Unless you have a better mousetrap, you better be priced competitively. It takes only a few clicks, not a ride in the car, to check your price
5: Answer your phone and be an expert on your products
6: Don't be Wall-Mart. It works for them because people go to the store to shop. People on the net are looking for specific items.....niche marketing is our game.
Good luck to all. Look forward to communicating with you in the future.
