eCommerce for Wyoming Small Business

Website Help for Wyoming Small Businesses

eCommerce in America basically started in 1995.  10 years later in 2005, it had grown into a $1.5 trillion industry and without a doubt it has grown since then.

eCommerce is a way for you to outreach your Wyoming Small Business to current customers and to new markets.  Additionally, a well built website, designed from a sound eCommerce strategy, can provide positive branding by illustrating that your operation is competent and modern.

The University of Wyoming Small Business Development Center can help you create an eCommerce strategy and a launch web site.

Watch a Video about our eCommerce Service

This video lasts about 5 minutes and briefly demonstrates some of the websites noted in the right column of this page.  Much of the text is too small to see in the video, but you will at least get the general idea!

 

Two Coaching Services We Offer

Help with an eStore for Online Sales

Most of us have been to Amazon.com or other eStores.  We find products, add them to a shopping cart, then pay for them with a credit card.

Your Wyoming small business can offer the same thing.

Wyoming Entrepreneur can coach and train as you develop your own eStore complete with an online product listing and photos, so clients can find what they want, add to a shopping cart, then complete the purchase with a credit card or other payment.

You do not need to know web design or coding to use our service!

Help with an Informational Website

This is a basic site with photos of you and/or your products and services.  For example, if you own a bakery you would photograph the operation (building either inside or out) and your products or services in action.

If you can use the basics of Microsoft Word, you can do this!
