NetSuite E-Commerce

Are you frustrated with the built-in NetSuite e-commerce search?  Is it delivering poor results to your visitors, irritating them to the point of leaving your site?  Could your site use a boost in customer conversion?

EasyAsk gives you the customer conversion power of EasyAsk natural language to your NetSuite e-commerce site.  With EasyAsk, visitors will find products faster and quickly be converted from shoppers to buyers, which will increase your customer conversion rates, order sizes and overall e-commerce revenue.  We guarantee your conversion rates will increase with EasyAsk.

How does EasyAsk do it?  The secret is the natural language technology.  EasyAsk natural language gives your NetSuite Suite Commerce site:

  • A more powerful search box where customers can enter descriptive search phrases – “men’s blue polo shirts under $50” – and get to the exact products they want faster, greatly increasing the odds of purchasing,
  • Automated linguistic processing features such as spell-correction, stemming and relaxation that ensure visitors will see results and not receive the dreaded “no results” page,
  • A greater number of attributes and guided navigation options built automatically by EasyAsk from your product catalog to deliver more accurate results and faster navigation,

Just ask InkJet Superstore, a NetSuite customer.  The built in NetSuite search could not handle InkJet Superstore’s search needs.   The company tried other 3rd party search products only to see those fail as well.  Inkjet Superstore turned to EasyAsk, and now has a more visitor friendly search box and has practically eliminated no results pages.  The EasyAsk implementation was fast and required little resource from InkJet Superstore.

DollarDays Rings Up E-Commerce Dollars Using EasyAsk Natural Language E-Commerce Search and Merchandising

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
For Further Information Please Contact:
John Morrell, VP of Product Marketing for EasyAsk, email: [email protected]

BURLINGTON, MA— September 6, 2011 – EasyAsk, the leader in e-commerce search and merchandising software, and DollarDays International, the premiere online wholesaler and closeout company, today announced one of the largest and most diverse uses of e-commerce search in e-retail.  DollarDays is using the natural language conversion power of EasyAsk eCommerce Edition to get customers from the home page to the right products in a single click, helping increase purchase rates and revenue.

DollarDays distributes over 140,000 products on its e-commerce site with over 5,000 categories and sub-categories – a product catalog that would rival even the largest e-retailers.  In addition, as a small business wholesaler, the catalog is continuously shifting as seasons change, new products become available, and excess product needs to be closed out.

A product catalog of this size, diversity and fluidity created a number of difficult challenges in implementing e-commerce search and merchandising.  The product diversity meant that the same search term could have different meaning for different products, and the navigation attributes would be widely varied across the different categories.  The constant change created a merchandising nightmare in trying to manage promotions and offers.  It was clear that keyword-based e-commerce search offerings could not meet these challenges.

DollarDays chose EasyAsk eCommerce Edition because the natural language technology provided a more powerful, yet easier to use search and merchandising for their e-commerce site.  With EasyAsk, DollarDays now has:

  • A search box that is more accurate, allowing visitors to type phrases describing exactly what they want and getting those in one click,
  • A rich, dynamic set of navigation attributes that adjust based on the categories and products, making navigation faster,
  • Superior, easier merchandising including the automatically assignment of products to special categories and rapid addition of promotional banners, ads and links.

“The most successful e-commerce sites get the customer to the right products the fastest, speeding the buying process”, said Marc Joseph, president and CEO of Dollar Days.  “EasyAsk natural language search allows our customers to find the exact product in a single click, increasing our customer conversion rates.  EasyAsk also makes our merchandising more agile, which is essential in our business where product offerings are continuously changing.”

As a result of using EasyAsk, DollarDays has seen significant improvement in the performance of their e-commerce site, including:

  • The improvement of successful search rate to 99.8% and the virtual elimination of zero results searches,
  • A dramatic increase in the use of the search box and the length of search terms to lead visitors to products faster,
  • Greater efficiency in merchandising  by replacing a time-consuming multi-step process to create promotions with a combination of automated and single step creation of merchandising programs

DollarDays uses EasyAsk natural language and algorithms fed by operational product data to automatically classify products into unconventional categories such as Closeouts, 49¢ & Less, Hot Sellers and New Products (seen across the top of the DollarDays.com website).  Using EasyAsk in this way saves many man-days of merchandiser time and completely removes technical staff from the merchandising processes.

 “DollarDays is a shining example of how EasyAsk’s natural language search and merchandising can bring an e-commerce site to life and instantly increase customer conversion. Higher conversion equals more sales, leading to higher profits”, said Craig Bassin, CEO of EasyAsk.   “In a marketplace where you need every competitive edge possible, DollarDays found a powerful, yet easy advantage by using EasyAsk that is paying off at the bottom line.”
