Storefront business owner, Ryan Notar, wanted to create a company that is able to benefit other enthusiasts about a sport he loves - paintball. His store, CrazedPaintball.com is able to provide amateurs to professionals with gear and accessories.
Ryan, a 22 year old entrepreneur, started his business in April of 2004. His main objective has always been to give excellent customer service from people who understand the sport, fellow ballers. Ryan felt that there wasn’t necessarily one technique that helped his online storefront system out but rather multiple techniques.
Ryan first wanted a site that was easy to follow and navigate. To create this stress-free experience for his customers, he needed a shopping cart that was user-friendly. So, he purchased one through MonsterCommerce. Ryan also appreciates how relatively painless operating a storefront system can be, with the right systems and the right company to provide the services.
“MonsterCommerce has put together a scalable and customizable piece of software. The 24 hour customer service is amazing, and every representative we have spoken with has been knowledge and helpful,” says Ryan. “Our shopping cart is one of the most advanced on the net and offers so many tools that others do not.”
Another component Ryan added to his website is link advertising. This kind of marketing tactic is able to get his site noticed as an important site for search engines; therefore, he is able to generate more traffic through the engines.
“We have taken advantage of MonsterWebPromotion link advertising and our web traffic has increased steadily ever since,” says Ryan.
Other tools Crazed Paintball is involved in are MonsterSmallBusiness Forum and MonsterMarketplace. The forum is a tool their company can use to learn about many typical mistakes that are overlooked much of the time, but are easy to fix with simple instructions from MonsterCommerce technical specialists. Crazed Paintball decided to apply to MonsterMarketplace, and they are now posted as a paintball provider. Ryan said MonsterMarketplace was a tool that helped his company reach new heights.
Starting off with high expectations, Ryan implemented the techniques that most benefited his business model. Now, he is the owner of a successful website: not only from a sales perspective but from the positive feedback of his customers. This increased Ryan’s sense of accomplishment: “I love it when we are praised by people all over the nation for our dedication to the sport.”
