HotStart

HotStart is a proven start-up toolkit for profitable online retailing. HotStart technology is delivered over the Internet via a web browser, a system that can be described as a combination of IT outsourcing and software rental.

Operational since 1999, HotStart has been specifically developed for small-to-medium retailers, e-tailers and direct marketers who wish to expand their business by selling products or services over the efficient Internet channel. It is intended to be a cost-effective technology platform with proven, profitable track record.

Features & Benefits

Specific benefits of the HotStart platform include:

Reduces Costs

Launch costs are reduced because you are simply adapting proven systems, not reinventing the wheel. Ongoing operational costs are also far less as the technology, R&D, and upgrade costs are spread across many clients, not absorbed by one alone.

Lowers Risk

Proven systems means there's little risk of technology going bad or costs blowing out.

Provides Full Control

Back-office tools provide control to management without needing IT knowledge.

Maintains Focus

Management remains focused on core business issues rather than IT concerns.

Up and Trading Faster

Customising existing systems to your requirements is far quicker than developing a new system.

Fully Hosted & Supported

HotShed takes care of all hosting, monitoring and ongoing technology servicing leaving you free to concentrate on customers. Management and staff can access the central servers from anywhere via the Internet.
