Our Team has your back and is here to provide you with all of the tools needed for selling your Client on a Store, including the initial presentation and we are here to help you succeed at every stage following that.
Fine Points to Consider
The first important step to take is having a talk with your Client about the details to learn more about the type of Store and features they might need, including:
- • Store Design
- Customizable pages, Store Images, filters, header & footers, etc.
- • User Experience
- User Accounts, Permissions, Manager Order Approvals, etc.
- • Products & Inventory
- Store Level Inventory, LIVE Supplier Inventory, Product Images
- • Payments, Taxes & Shipping Methods
- Custom Payments, Credit Card, Gift Certificates, Coupons
- Custom Sales Tax, Zip Code-based Sales Tax, Avalara Integration, etc.
- Flat Rate Shipping, Shipping Integrations with FedEx, UPS, USPS
So why are these topics important? These discussion points will propel you into the next step in the Presentation process, which will determine which of our Demo Stores to use when demoing Online Stores to your End User!
Discovery Document
Setting a foundation is the first step and also one of the most important aspects of building any Online Store. Discovery is a part of the Pre-Store Building process where you ask your Client questions to figure out exactly what they want and any non-negotiables for their Store. Some of the important topics to cover include what kind of setup or configuration they need, if they want a DIY Store, and much more. The information that you’re able to gather helps refine the direction you go, in order to give Clients their perfect Store. This is a valuable sales tool we created that outlines the questions you need to ask your Clients to identify the details and right solution for them when it comes to Store Type:
- Company Stores by BrightStores
- Pop Up Stores by OrderMyGear
- Redemption Stores
Sales Sheets
Our Sales Sheets are specifically made with you in mind! What exactly are Sales Sheets? They are informational sheets that provide an overview of the various store solutions. You can download this synopsis of our Store systems, features, and so much more on the website. They will help you compare our various Store types, levels, and benefits. We also supply many Client friendly Sales Sheets, as well as unbranded Sales Sheets so you can easily insert your logo and contact information to send to your Clients.

No matter what, always make sure you mention or even demonstrate these features:
- Discuss store security
- Demo a live store
