I’ve had clients use E-Junkie and WAHMCart with some success. Both offering similar functionality. May be worth checking out?

In the meantime, feel free to contact me if you have any 1SC questions that I might be able to answer for you. I’ve been using 1SC for myself and for clients for years – I consider myself a bit of an expert. :-)

By the way, was disappointed we didn’t have the chance to meet at Shine. I hope you enjoyed!

Warmly,

Donna

Is it worth looking for another shopping cart or is 1 Shopping Cart really the only game in town?

I wish I knew you when I was starting out years ago!

Thanks for your comment. Good info to know!

Great points about split testing, etc, yet, for those who never do it, still cumbersome to have the two services (and costly).

Sounds like you might not know about our integration features. Getting folks who buy items on your site from 1SC to AWeber is trivial with our integration. You can read more about it on our knowledge base or give our expert solutions team a call and they’ll walk you thru it.

We’re here to help. Keeping all your lists inside 1SC severely limits the statistics and information you can gather from your subscribers as well as segmenting, split testing, etc when you send to improve your response rates.

It’s just the ease of having all contacts in one place. If you’re selling products through a shopping cart (1SC) but sending your ezine out through Aweber – you’re not keeping in touch with the folks who are buying but may not necessarily be on your ezine list – unless you send two separate ezines – one through Aweber and one through 1SC. Or unless you manually enter them into Aweber whenever someone buys something through your shopping cart.

Aweber is great if you don’t sell products or want to have an affiliate program, but if you do, then you’re stuck using two systems and having contacts in two different places.

Hope that helps!
