Developing Ecommerce: Outdoor Retailer Winter Market 2017

It’s time to pack the skis (and snowboards, hats, boots, etc.) because we’re heading to the 2017 Outdoor Retailer Winter Show in Salt Lake City!

This will be our second Show but our first winter one. I’m not sure we’ll enjoy a Skratch Labs tofu bowl outside this year, but I’m sure there will be plenty of other delicious food.

But why are we, a web development company, going to OR again?

Well, as I said the first time, “we don't design new waterproof fabrics or solar charging accessories, but we do build websites.”

And not just any websites. We use design and development as a way to solve ecommerce problems and improve content management strategies. And we do this by using a well-defined approach. For example, we might develop a single system that helps manage both B2B and B2C sales. Or, we might design a user checkout process that encourages customers to buy more items (always a good thing, right?).

Some of the ecommerce projects we’re currently working on are with the Professional Disc Golf Association, Obermeyer, and Sticker Giant. But there is a lot more that we can — and want — to learn about working with retailers and the outdoor industry as a whole.

Presentation on Ecommerce Website Project

Two members of our team are presenting about an enterprise ecommerce project that we developed using Drupal 8 and Drupal Commerce with Obermeyer. Here are the details:

• What: One Site to Rule Them All - Building the Right Website for B2B and B2C Customers
• When: Wednesday, Jan. 11 at 1:30pm
• Where: Salt Lake Marriott Downtown At City Creek

We’ll have some cool giveaways so hopefully you or someone from your team can make it!

Also, we’d love to meet with you outside of the presentation! If you want to talk content management, website integrations, ecommerce options, or anything else, we’re down! Just sign up here below.
