The following are just a few of the advantages using CPOnline the CounterPoint Integrated eCommerce Solution. 

• With the economy being tight, many people are looking for bargains, or how to repair existing equipment to extend it's life.  Often, these items may not be available locally, or only available locally at a premium.  As an example:  in order to have tighter control over inventory levels, most automobile dealers have switched to only carrying parts for vehicles that are less than (5) five years old.  People with older vehicles may not be able to get OEM parts from their local dealers anymore.  This situation has spurred an increase in the number of people searching for parts on line.  Often, they can find the parts that they want at good price.  
  
  I recently needed to replace my trucks OEM custom fit rubber floor mats.  My local dealer didn't have the part and wouldn't order it.  Some aftermarket companies wanted $200 (or more) for an equivalent replacement.  However, on line, I found a Florida dealership that had the exact item I wanted in-stock (including the color).  The price including shipping was $58. In this case everyone but the local dealer won...  I got what I wanted at a great price, the Florida dealer got a new customer and reduced some of their older inventory.

• Radiant Systems reports that the average CPOnline merchant sales were up over 8% in the 4th Quarter of 2008,as compared sales in the previous quarter.  The average CPOnline merchant brings in approximately $22,000.00 per month.   If you aren't doing this, maybe your competition is...

• Using Radiant's $22,000.00 per month average figure - If you had a 50 percent Cost of Goods for the same sales, that would mean adding $11,000.00 per month to your bottom line, and reducing your inventory in the process!
