Why People Are Switching from Volusion to Sellr

If you want to start up your own eCommerce website, there are lots of options open to you. There are so many options, in fact, that you might find it hard to choose between one and another. Why should you choose Sellr, for example, when Volusion offers a very similar service? Well I want to use this blog post to take you over some of the strengths that Sellr has over Volusion and to show you why it is that people are switching from Volusion to Sellr.

Sellr trumps Volusion in two main ways: the first is its pricing. You can have a free trial of Volusion, but nothing substantial before you have to start paying. With Sellr, meanwhile, you can use our services for free, forever! You might one day wish to upgrade and start paying for one of our more comprehensive packages, but maybe not and even if you don’t you’ll still have all the resources to run and manage a successful eCommerce website. As we see it, starting up your own eCommerce website is a business venture and one which you'll want to be sure is profitable before you spend too much on it: that's why we won't expect you to do so until you are completely comfortable with the idea. Sure, you can use Volusion's free trial, but all it will do is give you a taster, not a reasonable look at how your business is going to do.

The second main thing is a continuation of the first: Volusion's cheapest payment option, which you could quite conceivably want to go for, actually gives you fewer features than Sellr's free option! For example, when you use Sellr for free you have access to the tools you need to initiate your own email marketing campaign; this is only available in Volusion's second package up! Email marketing is important, and we realise that. That’s not to mention content marketing, which Sellr also gives you for free. It is a shame that Volusion seem to drip feed their customers the tools which are vital to running a business.

So I hope that has convinced you that Sellr may be more appropriate for your eCommerce website that Volusion and shown you why people switch from Volusion to Sellr! If you want to sign up, why not do so right away and make your eCommerce dream an eCommerce reality?
