RAYNHAM, MA (PRWEB) December 22, 2004 -- Gotshalk's Soccer – home of the largest stand-alone, soccer-only operation in the U.S. – recently re-launched its online operations, www.wegotsoccer.com, to improve and broaden its Internet offerings. Gotshalks teamed with Boston-based Pixel Bridge Inc, a leading Internet consulting firm, to pursue the initiative.
Our new website effectively Internet-enables the offerings of our 20,500 square foot retail and warehouse facility," says President Mike OConnor. We proved our online potential over the past few years using an off-the-shelf system and decided it was time to take it to the next level with a completely customized solution."
The new website features rich functionality and promotes the entire Gotshalks inventory. Users can easily search by product or brand, create a unique profile with billing information, and track order status. We looked at all of the best-practice retail ecommerce sites out there and borrowed techniques when appropriate," says Mr. OConnor. The result is an intuitive, easy-to-use site that will result in an enjoyable shopping experience for soccer enthusiasts."
In addition to providing an effective online shopping experience, wegotsoccer.com is fully updateable by Gotshalks staff members. This is critical, because the new website guarantees that all products displayed are available in inventory. This customer-friendly philosophy differentiates wegotsoccer.com from the competition, but also requires regular maintenance to stay fresh. We worked with Gotshalks to build an online solution that worked for both its customers and internal staff," says Tim Bourgeois, CEO at Pixel Bridge. Wegotsoccer.com does an effective job satisfying the needs of both customer groups."
