If you sell on WhatsApp or social media, sending photos one by one takes your time and tires your customers. With an online catalog or store, customers see all your products with prices and message you ready to buy.
Online catalog or online store: which one you need
An online catalog shows your products with photos, prices and a button to order on WhatsApp. It is ideal if you close sales by chatting or receive payments by Yape, Plin or bank transfer.
An online store has a cart and takes payment on the website, by card through a payment gateway. It makes sense when you have many orders and want customers to buy on their own, at any time.
What it should have
- Products organized by category, with clear photos and visible prices.
- Search and filters if you have many products.
- A WhatsApp button with the order ready, or a cart with online payment.
- Shipping, returns and payment information.
- A design built for phones, where most people shop.
- If you already use a sales system, the store can connect to your stock.
