GDM eCommerce

Gary, Dan and Mike do e-commerce, here are the notes.

Mission

• Provide businesses with websites in a manner that is profitable.
• Make it easy to sell whatever products we come up with.

Tasks

1. Mike: Investigate options at 1and1.com and rackspace.com; get a capable (apache, php, joomla, zencart, coldfusion) server set up!
2. Mike: Set up zencart; either make it cloneable or use zencart's multi-store capability.
3. Dan : Investigate "SOE"
4. Gary: Investigate "email marketing"
5. Gary: Get Michael to do any graphics work we need.

Progress

Dan provided SOE Tips, he will update these as needed...

Dan says he usually uses 1and1.com for hosting. It's $5.99 per year to register a domain and web hosting starts at $3.99 per month. Gary says check out rackspace.
