OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What specific goals or objectives did you hire Virtual Coders to accomplish?
We engaged Virtual Coder to design and develop a basic e-commerce website for users to view our luxury products. Users typically navigate our site from Facebook and Instagram and use it as a reference point, but they make in-store purchases. 
Most of our clientele don’t have the time to go through long-winded shopping processes, so we wanted to make the purchasing experience easier for them. Our goal was to create a professional site that could toe the line between encouraging users to visit our stores and allowing them to make online purchases more easily.
