Growing BIG with BigCommerce
- Using the mass edit/upload feature to bring our products over from our POS into BigCommerce saved us so much time and energy!
- We love the variety of templates offered. The homepage has a huge impact on how a potential customer sees your company, by working with the Cornerstone template, and editing it to suit our needs, we were able to create a site that looks great and is user friendly.
- Another feature we use often is the coupon manager. Being able to offer specific coupon code discounts to customers has had a big impact on our customer service. Instead of just offering apologies in cases of damaged shipments and the like, we are now able to offer shopping discounts on future purchases. This helps us bring some convenience back into the mix when a customer might otherwise feel neglected or unhappy.
