EKMpowershop.co.uk EKMpwershop coldcalling tactics bring shame on them. Internet
A heads up to all my fellow eCommerce service providers in the community, EKMpowershop.co.uk are currently running a cold-calling campaign targetting shops hosted by other service providers.
I had a very excited young lady on the phone this morning trying to convince me to change my shop to EKMpowershop.co.uk. I let her speak for a few minutes before putting her out of her misery, but their strategy of targetting our clients is quite aggressive.
We've just completed an import routine that can load product data from the standard EKM product export file, so we will be returning the compliment in the coming months and talking to their customers.
And here I was thinking the eCommerce service provider market was professional with respect amongst providers :
Wrong EKMpowershop.co.uk are scum and my advice is to stay well clear of them. They steal other peoples hard work and pretend they own the rights then re sell on to the consumer. Its about time they got slammed.

Hi Just to clarify a few points on the UK's leading ecommerce platform, ekmPowershop.com: ekmPowershop was the first pay monthly, hosted ecommerce solution anywhere in the world. It was the distinct opposite to Open Source, which was/is very technical to use. ekmPowershop blew the market open, providing the first true CMS ecommerce platform. 6 years on, it now powers 1 in every 5 online shops in the UK (over 5000 transactional sites live in operation). As far as website ownership goes; any customer who leaves us can export all categories/products into an easily transportable CSV which can be used in case of a change of ecommerce provider: we transfer their domain FOR FREE, which they own: they also get full HTML access. Therefore they can take their site anywhere they like. We make it very easy to leave as the client usually come back when they find grass is ultimately not greener, where the free 'Open Source' option is concerned. And there is no contract. So why does ekmPowershop.com power 1 in every 5 online shops in the UK? Our recent newsletter may give you an insight into what ekmPowershop.com cutomers get for their very reasonable 19.99 + VAT per month: http://www.ekmsystems.co.uk/newsletter/2009-02/newsletter.htm. There's a good piece on the rapid growth of the UK's leading ecommoerce provider and an interesting piece on rogue SEO companies too... And here is an offer for anyone currently unhappy with their ecommerce platform - join ekmPowershop and quote your existing provider - we will waive the setup fee (49.95 + VAT).
