Vendr, a simple and beautiful store front for your website or blog

In today's economy you need to make getting paid as easy and available as possible. The amount of self employed people or individuals with a product, craft, or digital goods to sell is increasing. The ability to easily sell your work is the essential part of success in making money on the net. Personal branding encourages everyone to have their own websites but many people don't know how to create a shopping cart or use many of the other more complicated services and don't want to pay a pricey web designer. Vendr makes adding a shopping cart simple, easy, and affordable for even the least internet savvy entrepreneur.

Vendr gives any website or blog the ability to have an online storefront and shopping cart by taking only 15 minutes to add it in. You don't have to be an internet genius to get it started. You can add 5 items for free or choose from the paid packages of small, medium, and large depending on how many products you have for sale. They say if you need larger file sizes or more items, Vendr will make it happen. This is the ideal alternative, instead of selling the jewelry you make on etsy and your merchandise on ebay you can have the sales happening on your own website. Keeping traffic on your own site rather than shifting them elsewhere to make a purchase makes sense.

The widget is smoothly integrated into your website. They use just a small red tab that when clicked opens up a separate window ontop of your website so you dont have to create a new page for your shopping cart and the design of your website remains untouched. They dont try to brand your website with their name - only the word 'store' is on your website. The design of Vendr is simple and elegant so it does not clash with any design tastes.

Vendr is intelligent. You can favorite items and add items to a cart and come back for more later. It saves your favorites and shopping cart so customers can take their time in shopping and choosing merchandise. You can add descriptions and multiple pictures to each item you sell so customers always know exactly what they are purchasing. It nicely attaches to your PayPal account as well as Google Checkout and soon Authorize.net which are known, trusted, services. Being able to shop within your own website and make secure purchases makes your business professional and efficient.

If you do not have a website or a blog to host your own store button on, Vendr will create a store for you with yourownname.vendr.com. One very cool feature is the ability to choose a creative common background picture from flickr. Just browse the images and select a theme that matches your store personality.

The shopping cart can hold products, services, digital downloads and more. With its versatility in what you can sell, it is great for the photographer selling their own stock images, the crafter looking to sell their items, the collector wanting to sell antiques, the store selling their products, the painter wanting to sell his paintings, and so much more. It is an affordable solution to a do it your self approach to sales, for only a small amount of money (or the free version) and a 15 minute install you give your business the potential to make a profit.
