What does “Locally Managed” mean? It means that you, the owner, will have the option to change most elements on your web site. . . anytime, and from any computer. As long as you have access to an internet connection and a standard browser, you are ready to go.

This means creative freedom and the ability to keep user costs down. By using WYSWYG (what you see is what you get) tools, owners can see changes in real time, and preview the changes before enacting them.

For example, you will be able to create your own product categories simply by selecting a “add new category” button, and then naming the category. You can customize inventory from the existing database - for example, add your own text descriptions. Or add your own specialty products by completing simple forms.

The program will also feature an extensive Help, or “how to…” section. Owners will have immediate access to a library of easy to understand help files. We plan to include additional specialty tools, such as a simple image editor, at no additional cost. On top of all this, for those local shop owners who wish to have a professional design staff on call, we will offer reduced rates for ongoing service agreements.
