What Costs are Hidden?
We're very open with our offers, and there are no hidden costs in the above. Obviously you need to be aware that i-ntarsia is an annual subscription product. However, as the prices are so reasonable, and it includes hosting and backup, you will always be able to see what the fee covers. In addition, you will need to undertake the online training and load the products and content. Rest assured that this is very easy, and something you want to be a master of as your e-business develops.
Where you might pay more is in the design and templating. The costs quoted here are for one of our offshore partners to complete the work. If you wish to work with a local designer, or have particularly stringent requirements then these costs might be a little low. However, rest assured that the costs will be clear and agreed before work is undertaken, and the amount you spend will be up to you.
Will it work?
Judge for yourself! The Cooks Friend Company launched their site selling the unique 'Handymitts' in 2005. Their investment was well inside that quoted above. Since the launch, using i-ntarsia and the e-commerce module, they have added a huge number of additional products and information for serious cooks and are building a reputation as one of the best Cook's sites on the web.
