Can your E-Store Sell Products Internationally and Quote DDP (Door to Door) Pricing
At Klatu, We Focus on Delivering International E-commerce Solutions. International customers demand security, a technically reliable web site with up-to-date real-time product information and assured quick deliveries.
(PRWEB) May 22, 2005 -- U.S. online companies generally are unable to
accurately calculate the costs of international transactions. Many avoid
international sales because customs and tax issues prove confusing, they do not
understand U.S. Export laws or another country's import laws, and consider
international sales risky. Many sell on e-commerce platforms designed for
domestic sales and unable to manage international information, export
documentation, or accurately estimate total delivery costs.
International
customers require privacy and security, a technically reliable web site with
up-to-date real-time product information and assured quick deliveries. Uniquely
international issues include different languages and other currencies.
At Klatu, we focus on delivering internet solutions addressing
international needs. Our e-commerce platform provides DDP landed cost pricing
for over 100,000 IT and Consumer Electronics products throughout the Latin
American and Caribbean region. This marketplace represents nearly 550 million
people and nearly 50 countries .
We designed our e-commerce solutions to
allow U.S. companies to sell internationally and for Latin American resellers to
sell online to their country and elsewhere throughout the region, sourcing from
U.S. and regional IT suppliers. Our e-commerce solutions allow international
freight calculations, multiple IncoTerms sales, transactions in multiple
languages and currencies. International customers go online, receive accurate
DDP pricing with delivery to their doors. We also designed the engine to
calculate transportation and landed costs such as duties, taxes, clearance
charges and VAT separately from the sale's profit margin,
Since 2002, our
e-commerce platform has been adopted by resellers in the region and for over 2
years we have powered an online e-store in association with Hewlett Packard. The
HP e-store: www.latintech.net, allows end-users throughout the region to
order online in the same way U.S. consumers order from
HpShopping.com.
