Now online shoppers searching for the perfect cymbal sound can complete their purchase without ever leaving the SABIAN website. It's a great addition to a website that already offers a number of online innovations--like the option to see videos on product pages, create custom cymbal setups using the SABIAN Set-Up Builder and find the perfect sound with the Band & Orchestral Sound Calculator.
In addition, Shopatron is the only eCommerce solution that offers the added benefit of retailer-integrated fulfillment. That means purchases made through SABIAN's online store are transferred to a local SABIAN dealer who fulfills the order by shipping the product or hosting the customer for an in-store pickup.
"Being able to include our retailers in the online process sold us on Shopatron," says Peter Stairs, Sabian VP of Sales. "Not only does it support our retailers, but it also benefits our customers, who get the convenience of buying online but still enjoy the expertise and personal service offered by a local dealer in their area."
"eCommerce adoption in the musical instrument industry is exploding, and it's clear that a retail-integrated eCommerce model is one preferred by the industry," says Ed Stevens, Founder and CEO of Shopatron.
Shopatron has added 10 new music instrument brands so far in 2011, for a total of 50 brands supported by over 1,000 music dealers fulfilling orders. Music instrument brands on Shopatron have seen exponential sales growth, with an average 31% increase in same-store sales between Q2 2011 and Q2 2010.
