Online retail is currently experiencing a surge in popularity with figures showing that in 2008 Australia alone purchased US$54 Billion, by January 2009 that had increased to US$90. Billion with US$21 Billion expected by 2013.

I think that it is safe to say that the internet is a viable investment if bricks and mortar stores are considering expanding their marketing strategies.

Web site development can be very complex, time consuming and technically challenging to say the least, not to mention the costs, however, perhaps it is now worthy of due consideration.
With the internet cabling roll out expected to be completed by the end of next year we are able to look forward to advancement in how we use the internet and communicate with the rest of the world.

Here are some more stats for you t think about- in 2008 there were1.5 billion web site visitors worldwide. 20.8 million Australians went online, now thats what I call a captive market. A popular online auction company alone took approximately US$70 billion in sales in 2008, convinced yet?

If you want to expand your business it is safe to say ...
... that you might want to think about expanding online.

What would be some of the obstacles of a retail outlet setting up an online store?
In my 20 years of experience being a wholesaler service retail outlets on a regular basis, not a lot of retailers are that used to using the internet beyond a bit of surfing, some have sites, very few are well serviced with new stock and regular updates, it just doesn't happen.

This is why I have created livestore, it is a community site for businesses and customers alike to merge share experiences and feedback but with one key unique element.

Each member, store or otherwise can create a profile, upload images, enter information and basically showcase yourself or your business, there are no downloads, or urls, servers or anything technical to worry about.

The point of difference to this site however is the programming and functionality that has taken a year to develop.

We are offering with a livestore membership a video chat function so that customers may enter your store, served face to face by a store assistant. I believe this is bringing not only the most advanced technology, carefully designed to maximise simplicity in use, but is a merging of long loved, old fashioned customer service.

With our simplicity itself affiliate system this could not only be free but earn you a nice passive income.
