Continents Apart, LLC, a national rep group specializing in drop shipping for home, gift, licensed sports and leisure lifestyle products announced the launch of a new B2B website through a joint development project with WebSimplify.
 
Continents Apart CEO Steven Husak stated, “Being a unique drop ship sales rep group we wanted more than just a website built.  We wanted a partner than can also work closely with us to make life easier for our vendors and customers.  We call our customers ‘modern day catalogers’ and they include eCommerce sites, television shopping channels, and print catalogs.  They need the information required to give their customers a great experience to be at their fingertips, and WebSimplify “got it”. The site serves as an online catalog for our thousands of drop ship products in addition to having detailed information that a customer service agent can instantly access to answer their consumer’s questions without making them wait.
 
“In addition, the great news is that because we will have all of our product descriptions and photos in the WebSimplify servers, current and future Continents Apart customers that choose a WebSimplify solution will find we have made it easier to get up and running fast.  They have even set up a special website where our customers can learn more at
http://websimplify.biz/continentsapart.htm
 
“Of course, we still have all of the existing cutting edge set-up tools that we are known for.  These are still available and will always be state of the art for customers that are happy with the platform they are currently working with.  Even retailers with static, non-eCommerce sites can have WebSimplify’s back-end integrated, or they can seamlessly migrate their existing site to allow them to have the eCommerce and analytical capabilities that every business needs in today’s marketplace.”
 
About WebSimplify: With offices in San Jose and Sacramento, CA, WebSimplify is the latest brainchild of industry icons Art Vigil and Jason Davila. Their combined 25+ years of visionary industry success led them to develop this new, revolutionary concept.
