Accelerating the Transition to Online Shopping

In March, eCommerce software solution provider, xSellco, predicted the surge in online shopping and the pressure that online sellers would be put under. In order to help retailers move online and handle the expected increase in customer support demands, xSellco made their award-winning eCommerce helpdesk, eDesk, completely free for new customers for six months. Thousands of retailers are now handling support queries with ease, and for free, thanks to eDesk.

eDesk enables online retailers to manage orders and customer support queries from their webstore, social media channels, email account, and online marketplaces from one location. eDesk supports more than 30 marketplaces including Amazon, eBay, Allegro, WooCommerce, Shopify, and Magento. eDesk has proven to be an essential tool in helping eCommerce retailers cope. To date, over 4,500 online sellers have signed up for the deal and are reaping the benefits.

Gearing up for One of the Busiest Online Shopping Periods Ever

We’ve seen how the global pandemic has accelerated the move to online shopping. However, the busiest period is yet to come. Prime Day, Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and Christmas are just around the corner. According to a trend report from Bazaarvoice, 85% of retailers believe online sales will increase this holiday season compared to last. There is also the distinct possibility that Covid restrictions could be tightened at any time. This could, once again, impact online sales.

For all these reasons, it’s vitally important for brands to focus their attention on building a strong online presence. Retailers need to speed up their online efforts ahead of the festive eCommerce frenzy. Now is the time to plan ahead.
