Yahoo Store Owners

Are Yahoo fees and costs eating into your profits? Are you still willing to pay 0.5-1.5% of your gross revenue for the Yahoo name? Are you tired of trying to work with an archaic interface with its own unique language (usually requiring consultants for even the simplest of tasks)? Would you like to work with someone who wants you to be successful?

We believe we provide much greater value and give you one of the most valuable commodities there is; hours back in each and every day.

So how can we help you?

First, we NEVER charge a commission on sales. Your revenue is your revenue, you earned it. Yahoo charges their merchants anywhere from 0.5% to 1.5% of total product revenue. What are they providing you to earn that? For many merchants, this can easily be in excess of $5000.00 a year. Do your customers really care that you are a Yahoo store? Research shows that most internet customers are looking for a competitive price, easy navigation during their shopping experience and a reputable merchant.

Second, processing your orders has never been easier. Yahoo’s order management system is archaic at best; it hasn’t changed for 10 years. There is little to no support for drop-shippers, orders are processed one at a time. This can be a time consuming and tedious process. Utilizing our EZ Order Manager back-end, similar orders (like from the same drop-ship supplier or processed from inventory) are handled as a batch. This allows you to breeze through your order queue and move your orders through with a minimum of fuss. Print all documents (packing slips, sales-receipts, pick-lists, etc.) for all your open orders at once and handle many other tasks with similar ease.

Need to do marketing campaigns to your customers? We provide a fully integrated email template engine along with our CRM capabilities to make mass marketing a snap.

Our prices start at just $59.99 a month. This gives you a front-end storefront and full integration with our EZ Order Manager back-end. A comparable package with Yahoo (3rd party back-end would be additional) would be in the $129.99 a month and up range (plus the sales commission). With our product you also get a full suite of web site services such as email mailboxes, SMTP services and a variety of 3rd party applications. These 3rd party applications can be easily installed for many of the special tasks you perform such as surveys, photo galleries, blogs, etc. They can be integrated into your site or be separate operations. The choice is yours.

How does EZ Merchant Solutions help you? We provide you a storefront that utilizes today’s look and feel. We have over 30 standard skin templates to choose from which means picking the look and feel of your site is easier than ever. Want to change it tomorrow? Simply select a new skin and you now have a completely new look and feel.

The administrative interface to our storefront is easy to use and gives you great flexibility without your having to learn a new language. We have a rich set of product options (global and product specific) as well as product features that allow you to identify key areas of your product set and distinguish between products of varying features (for instance, white gold jewelry or Pontiac parts). Visit our Demo Site to get a better feel for what we can do for you.

Our storefront is tightly integrated with our EZ Order Manager back-end. This means that when your customers place an order, you can begin processing it immediately. Order status and tracking numbers are always reflected in the storefront so when you customers inquire, they see the current status of their order. Our storefront supports over 50 different payment providers and payment gateways.

Change is difficult. It’s hard to go from what you know and sometimes understand to something new. Sometimes there's secuirty in the familiar even if it's more difficult or costly than moving to something bettter. Recognizing this, we offer conversion services to help with the task. For most sites, we can take your Yahoo catalog and create your entire inventory (including category hierarchy) and move all your images into the new store. We can also capture all your order history so nothing is lost. The complexity of stores varies widely and pricing starts at a very affordable $399.99 for these custom services.

Take a tour of our products. We think your customers will find their shopping experience much easier and the flexibility you gain as the site administrator will be unsurpassed.
