Laptop Skins, iPhone Skins, & iPod Skins via BigCartel

It has been almost two weeks since we launched and we are still making headway. It’s been slow and steady but we are inching forward and a lot of it has to do with the commerce solution that BigCartel provides. BigCartel is awesome!

I have to say, when I started brainstorming ideas for an online presence with BoomSkins, I didn’t know what the best solution was going to be. I figured I would use WordPress for the blogging portion of the site but I was clueless as to what I wanted to use for a commerce solution. I looked around at what the other companies were using to sell their laptop skins and iphone skins but most of them seem to use some type of custom built cart. I tried Magento, but it was to complicated in the theme building arena, Joomla was a nightmare from past experiences, and Drupal didn’t seem too fun the couple of times I used it. So what was I going to do to sell my iPod skins? Thats when a search result showed me BigCartel!

BigCartel is extremely easy to implement in to any standard HTML/CSS layout. Thats a key feature that I was looking for, easy implementation. They have a ton of simple APIs that you can use to pull any attribute to any section of your page. They had three levels of service, FREE, $10, and a $20 per month plan. They provide stats on who visits, keep track of my products, and host product photos of my laptop skins! They have a ton of stores and a great community and are very responsive!

Overall, if you are looking for a simple / cheap commerce solution, I would recommend using BigCartel. It is a super product and can really be used to sell any type of item. To show my appreciation, I am offering 10% off to all BigCartel users or really anyone that can find this post, enjoy!
