    hi people

    thank you for tellng us what you think about us

    i will try to log in more often and will try to get to know people on the forum

    and i will stop the adverting on the forum

    the wed site is made by us and we got a price for the mail order wed and it was going to cost us thousands. (even as a company thats a lot of money)

    and don't forget we have only been going for 2 year we need people to buy thing from us to be able to change things like the web site

    Cheers everyone

    if your a business then think like one pal..you cant expand your business over the uk with a shit site..this forum wouldnt be so active if it looked shit would it..the bikes you make visually are fucking great so hats of to ya..for the custom and hard work you guys put in..tuning side of things could be better..

    125's are a better market in this country because people who have them have chosen them as an option instead of a car or aswell as a car.so there prepared to throw money at it..keep up the good work..you will grow as a business if you change a few lil things..but i think you will struggle to compete against psn an there prices etc..but give it a go

    i have in the process of making a webiste atm its an oscomerce site
    www.extreme-bikeware.co.uk if you click the shop it will show u are purchase site.

    this is only going to cost us around £200 to do.

    and Start selling a range of 125cc parts and there will be alot more interest and purchases made.

    but u need to sort your site out to maximise sales, pm me if you wanna talk further

    oscommerce is free and very good as you can see from his site. (open source)

    all you need is PHP and MySQL and its so easy to setup.. (need help pm me)

    Aslong as your host supports MySQL and PHP



    :cool:

    why not use ebay's shop function to begin with, it needs no setting up and costs are minimal.

    your putting the ball in the customers court...bad practice my freind :msn1:

    why should i the customer help you out...it should be the other way around!!

    you lost a sale from me the other day with that attitude...and i bet lots of other people have clicked on your web site with the aim of makeing a purchase and thought sod it...just like i did!!!

    let me tell you something...i work in a factory...i start work at 730 in the morning...i have 2 15 min breaks and 1 30 min break...

    Also theres a no phone use on the shop floor policy...basically if you get caught 3 times your fired...

    I often finish work after crappy little shops have closed for the day...

    I have (like many people on this forum) spent hundreds of pounds on my peds in the last year alone...and i hardly picked the phone up once ;)

    either invest in your company or shut up shop!!!!

    hi mate

    we did have a ebay account but it got hacked into and we had over £750,000 of electrical goods and there was people paying for the items and the money was going into the hacker bank account not good.

    and since that day we will not make a company acount. and we don't use ebay much at all

    thanks

    the way i see BYS is that a kid wanted a ped shop so his parents financed it, it takes knowledge of the scooter scene and a business minded individual (or two)
    to successfully run a shop, constant price checks and being competetive with prices will gain you more custom, a website with your full range (the cost of the website would be superceeded by the increase of online sales and should pay for itself in a matter of months)

    end of the day you have made some nice scoots but anyone with a bit of money can do that, you need to offer something that a lot of other shops cant, and thats non biased non bullshit advice.
