We help you get your traffic through SEO, SEM, Facebook Marketing, Linkedin marketing and Email Marketing.

We can help you then turn these visitors into leads/customers using Conversion Forms, Shopping Carts and Downloadables. At this point we will also look at cross-sell and up-sell opportunities to maximise your conversion.

Performance Canoes and Kayaks, one of our favorite clients have now gone live with their online store build in the dzineStore DIY Shopping Cart platform.
PERFORMANCE CANOES & KAYAKS specialises in technically advanced, high quality, paddle-sports equipment for paddlers at all levels. PCK is an authorized Australian agent for the iconic STRUER brand, as well as performance specialists ELIO, PLASTEX, SIPRE, LETTMANN, SELECT and G’POWER.

Recently they have also introduced the SEA EAGLE brand to our range, the global leaders in inflatable water sports equipment.
The shopping cart look and feel has been customised a lot based on the look and feel of their current website http://www.pck.com.au
The new look was given quickly by grabbing the existing css and changing that on the current store.
They are also leveraging Facebook integration by having a Like Us button on the sidebar and share me and tweet me on the product pages.
When dzineStore V3 comes around next month, they will be able to utilize youTube integration helping their customers make better decisions by using videos against their product.
They can also utilise their current subscriber base by sending quick emails to them.

It is exciting times at dzineLabs, we are about to launch Version 2 of dzineStore. The DIY Store that allows you to have your store up and ready in minutes and start accepting orders.
If you do not know what features we have already, please view this post:
DIY Online Store – DzineStore – Updates
Here is the summary of new features coming out
One feature that all of our clients wanted was multiple images against products. With the new release, you will be able to add new images to your product and have multiple images of the product. You can also choose your featured product and have the other images show up next to your main product.
Previously you would have to check your email to see what had been ordered. We have now made it easier for you by allowing you to see your orders via your control panel. Not only can you see your orders, you can mark if they have been shipped or not.
We are now allowing you ask for a customers email address before they start the checkout process.
We will be allowing you to use more themes and customise the look and feel of your online store even more. With the introduction of themes, you can not only give the store your look and feel but you can then tweak that theme to fit your exact needs.
The store already has integration with Campaign Monitor but now you will be able to also send out quick updates to your customers using the Control Panel.
We will be integrating Facebook and Twitter even more in the new iteration of the store allowing your customers to tell their friends how good your product is and how happy they are to buy it.
We will be integrating the like box for your Facebook Fan Page. So that your customers who might not be ready to buy from you straight away can like your store and then come back at a later stage or when you send them updates via Facebook.
We all know how video helps you sell more, but we rarely put this to practice. Well you won’t have an excuse anymore once we have integrated YouTube videos with your products.
The expected release date for the new version is mid February. Please subscribe to our newsletter to get notified of this new release. Of course if you sign up with the existing version of dzineStore, you will be automatically upgraded to the new version when it is out.
The pricing is the same $1000 AUD + GST to set up plus maintenance fee per year. For more information please email us at info@dzineclub.com

WIth the launch of two new online stores based on dzineStore framework here are the udpates on the platform:
The store has been updated so that it looks much better than the older store. It is more sleek, pleasing to the eye and more functional.
The buttons have been smoothened and the menu bars have been give the web 2.0 effect.
The social media integration has been improved. There is a button next to each product to like it in Facebook or tweet about it in twitter.
The Store itself now has integrations with your Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and eBay accounts. If you have a Facebook account, a twitter account, a YouTube page or an eBay store, all you have to do is put the link to them on the control panel and they will automatically show up on the homepage and on the store pages.
Just put in your Google Analytics code and the Online Store will start showing Analytics reports on your Google Analytics Dashboard.
Do you use campaign monitor as your email provider. If you do, the newsletter section can subscribe visitors directly into your campaign monitor account.
You can choose between a flash slider or a jQuery slider on the front page to promote your products. Having jQuery slider means that your store is 100% visible in iPhone and the iPad and your mobile customers can buy products using their mobile devices.
We have improved the PayPal integration so that you only need an email address to start your online store making it quicker and easier to set up. You can also accept payments via credit cards through the PayPal integration making it more safe and secure for both yourself and your customer.
Lots of more updates coming soon, stay tuned. Pricing for dzineStore starts at $1000 AUD + GST per year. If you need a store by Christmas, please contact us at info@dzineclub.com
