Ecommerce Reviews

Skrill has an interesting history. I’ve had some merchants ask me whether or not it’s a scam. Let’s be clear–I can be certain it’s a legitimate payment processor. However, it does have some problems with transparency–especially in the United States.

However, this is often because Skrill does take on risk by supporting merchants that aren’t supported by PayPal and other more popular processors. So, in this Skrill review, we’ll learn about this interesting company and whether or not you should consider it at all.

CRM Reviews CRM Software Ecommerce Reviews

A good CRM software (Customer Relationship Management) is essential for ecommerce.

If you’ve ever used a tool like Pipedrive or Salesforce in the past, then you’ll know how valuable they can be when it comes to enhancing and improving the sales process. After all, with a CRM system, you can do a lot more than keep hold of customer contact records. You can also automate things like lead scoring, follow up, or tracking deal storage.

The only problem?

We often find that there are some cookie cutter CRMs that don’t have that many customizable features for the wide variety of ecommerce businesses out there. However, sometimes all your company needs is a user-friendly contact management dashboard and a way to log and send out interactions with your customers and clients.

In this HubSpot CRM review you’ll learn that you can have all of that for free.
