MadeinAtlanticCanada.com Website
Showcases Business Products and Services to the World
Halifax - Businesses throughout Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince
Edward Island and Newfoundland & Labrador now have a new marketing tool
to assist them in showcasing their products and services for sale to
the world.
Officially launched August 9, 2005 at 12:07 AM,
www.MadeinAtlanticCanada.com celebrated its first online sale within
minutes of "going live". The inaugural transaction was attributed
to a British Columbia resident looking to extend his recent maritime
visit through the purchase of digital downloadable music from ECMA
Award winners, Sons of Maxwell.
Bringing global buyers and regional sellers together,
www.MadeinAtlanticCanada.com is the innovation of Jeff Morris,
President.
Mr. Morris has over twenty-five years of business experience including;
Military/Commercial Pilot, IT Consultant and Mortgage Broker. As a long
time Atlantic Canadian resident, Mr. Morris recognizes the outstanding
range of quality products and services originating from this region.
Mr. Morris noted, "73 % of all firms in Atlantic Canada have less
than five (5) employees, making the economic and time commitment to the
creation, management and maintenance of individual websites difficult,
if not impossible".
Jeff added, "www.MadeinAtlanticCanada.com allows small and medium
sized businesses (those with less than 100 employees) to overcome that
challenge by joining an online buying and selling marketplace."
Sellers can list unlimited numbers of new Made in Atlantic Canada
products and services for sale (with photo). Some of the categories of
products available for purchase include: music, books, clothing,
jewelry, art, crafts, items for the home and gift certificates. More
than one-hundred (100) items are currently available for purchase, and
the site features an ever expanding list of suppliers and products.
Shoppers can point, click and purchase outstanding goods and services
from a secure site around the clock from anywhere in the world.
Shoppers can also extend their visit, or capture and share the Atlantic
Canadian experience with others who may never have had the opportunity
to visit the region in person.
While www.MadeinAtlanticcanada.com charges sellers a nominal fee for
each online purchase, Sellers now have the ability to solidify their
business relationships with existing customers by offering new products
for sale, expanding their marketing efforts to reach customers on a
global scale, utilize a new selling channel and virtually eliminate the
need for retail location overhead.
First time online sellers are provided with free online instructions to
coach them through the product information listing process, as well as
the use of a toll free phone number (1-877-474-MIAC or 1-877-474-6422).
Mr. Morris noted, "www.MadeinAtlanticCanada.com is a marketing tool
which compliments the province's efforts to promote the entire east
coast as a travel destination. Each of the online products and services
available for sale will showcase the experience that is Atlantic
Canada."
