At Levementum, we understand that in order to reach and serve customers today, retailers need an eCommerce presence. There is a wealth of opportunity for companies who create an eCommerce site that is designed from the ground up to engage customers and turn browsers to buyers. Magento, one of Levementum’s selected solution partners, is a leading developer in eCommerce software. Together we want to share what Magento can offer your business.

We invite you to be our guest at the Arizona eCommerce Forum on Thursday, September 29. During this event you will learn about the fastest growing eCommerce platform in the world – Magento Enterprise – and all of the features that will help you attract more customers, improve customer loyalty, increase your average order value and maximize conversion rates.

Levementum will share how we created a modern, user-friendly online store using Magento Enterprise for Troxell Communications, the largest privately owned audio-video equipment distributor in the U.S. The new system made online shopping easy for Troxell customers, allowed them to penetrate new markets and provided seamless integration on the back-end with their existing systems including an Appx ERP system.

It is becoming increasingly difficult to make the incremental improvements that lead to improved profitability and competitive advantage. The survival of any business in this highly competitive environment requires adopting a strategy and culture of continuous improvement. Continuous improvement can be equated to Darwin’s hypothesis of ‘survival of the fittest’. Those best suited to adapt and change are most likely to survive.

Businesses have now been evolving for many years, those who have survived the long-term have done so in large part as a function of their willingness to change and adapt. We have learned from the failures and successes of those who came before us and as a consequence the changes we seek now are in terms of ‘tweaks’. We look for the small changes and corrections that lead to greater profitability, success and survival.

The key to continuous and incremental improvement is understanding the data that drives and is derived from business-as-usual, knowing the environment. Once you have a clear view of the environment, then making informed decisions and taking action can be the difference between growth and stagnation.

The keys to understanding the environment and making informed and intelligent decisions based on this understanding is commonly referred to as Business Intelligence. The path to effective Business Intelligence (BI) can be summarized as follows:

1. Establishing clear business goals, objectives and/or initiatives.
2. Identify and prioritize the metrics and measures that are linked to each goal, objective and/or initiative.
3. Map specific individuals or teams to the measures and metrics being monitored and ensure they are empowered to influence each measure.
4. Monitor the data for next actions, progress and for intended results.

The path above may be simple and understated, however it clearly and concisely outlines the keys to successful BI. It requires the participation of management and staff as well as technology to help collect, organize and present the identified measures and metrics.
