Kristen,
I know Danchuk is very skeptical about adding shipping costs into his online
orders. In fact, I know he thinks it is impossible to do so at no cost
whatsoever to him. But I am confident that I can provide the most incredibly
accurate shipping costs automatically included into every online order.
Our ISP, Lexiconn, has just added a ShopSite module that logs directly into
the United States Postal Service's database for all up-to-the-minute rates
to be included in every ShopSite order.
On top of this, services such as UPS or FedEx, can be configured to your
current accounts with either company. They can also provide your customers
tracking number information right off the Danchuk website. This would be
done with an authentic reference number of course.
All you would need to supply me is weight and box dimensions for each of the
catalog products you sell. ShopSite will even be able to calculate small
boxes into larger box dimensions for you.
These vendor databases even allow your customers to purchase insurance
through the postal service on your packages. It will also calculate
commercial and residential addresses and verify their status. Most of all,
it will negotiate whether or not a customer can choose ground shipments for
over sea shipments.
These various postal services are the innovators that created these software
packages for ShopSite. And Lexiconn now offers these modules for free!
Lexiconn is also the company who worked with both ShopSite and USPS to offer
these great added features!
On top of all this, ShopSite has added the custom handling charge feature
which can be computed in multiple ways for each specific product purchased.
Anyways, you know I hate sounding like an advertisement sometimes but this
is really an impressive deal. A few years ago there would have been no way
for us to do this at no cost!
TTYL,
Jerred
