WSM™ is a great solution for Automotive Jobbers, Car Parts Stores, Aftermarket Service Companies, and even Wholesale Distributors.

As one of the leading automotive eCommerce solutions in business, we are very proud of the progress we have made in the automotive web development arena with Web Shop Manager (WSM™). The thing we are most excited about right now is full DCI / Catalog Rack integration, which allows any of our clients to populate their catalog with over 1 million SKU's instantly. Catalog Rack is the internet-based electronic catalog designed to replace cumbersome (and often out-of-date) paper catalogs. Containing over 60 million applications from the leading brands, Catalog Rack delivers by far the most complete and most intuitive Accessories and Performance Parts electronic catalog for customized use throughout the industry’s distribution channel (source: Catalograck.com). DCI established its Electronic Cataloging Division in 1997 as a result of its involvement in setting industry standards. This division’s services allow performance and accessory parts manufacturers to service all facets of their distribution channels’ electronic cataloging needs (source: DCiNet.com).

Web Design Solutions is proud to highlight a few sites that have been created with Web Shop Manager™ and DCI/ Catalog Rack. Please visit the DCi/ Web Design Solutions Demonstration site for an additional look at how powerful Automotive Aftermarket eCommerce would be for you.


DCI & Catalog Rack eCommerce Web Development Case Studies

SVCustoms.com

SVCustoms.com

Client Since 2002, Svcustoms.com has become one of the fastest growing online truck and auto accessory retailers in the United States. Offering a wide range of accessories for trucks or automobiles including, bug shields, vent visors, nerf bars, tonneau covers and much more from top manufacturers such as Raptor, Westin, Nasta, Lund, AVS, Aries, ICI, Extang, EGR and many more. Svcustoms strives to have competitive pricing, top quality customer service, and fast shipping.

Project Overview/Challenge Over the years SVCustoms.com has learned how difficult cataloging 1000s of SKUs for so many manufacturers can be. Excited to integrate with DCI/ Catalog Rack, but not to lose years of SEO work and rankings was a concern for SVCustoms.

Solution Web Design, Web Designers, Web Hosting, E-Commerce, Content Management System, Data Import, DCI / Catalog Rack

Results SVCustoms.com, and their ever growing loyal following, were pleased with the end results. They received an awesome new site that conveys years of fantastic customer care and expertise. The automatically scheduled DCI/ Catalog Rack product updates are one less worry for these truck and automobile accessory retailers. Thankfully, they could also put to rest their concerns of losing their established SEO and Google Page Rank. WSM™’s advanced SEO features will work to improve their Google Page Rank over many years to come.

Weathers Auto Parts - eStore Pro

Client With over 40 years of automotive accessory experience it’s easy to see why Weathers Auto Supply continues to be a trusted source.  This family owned and operated business was started in 1958 by Mr. J.D. Weathers.  Originally just a small retail operation selling wheel accessories and windshields today the company has grown into 2 retail locations, and a regional distribution powerhouse supporting the Mid South.  Although Weathers Auto Supply product offerings have expanded to include Automotive Exterior & Interior Accessories, Performance and Engine products, and Steering and Suspension merchandise, you will find their hands-on experience and commitment to customer care is unrivaled. 

Project Overview/Challenge Weathers Auto Supply needed to develop an eCommerce site capable of handling their massive amount of inventory while maintaining consistency with their 2 retail locations.  The easy to use Web Shop Manager (WSM) Content Management System (CMS) was a great fit for Weathers Auto Supply, a first time eCommerce site. Collaborating with Web Design Solutions and WSM provided the balance of cutting edge web design with a retro aesthetic they were looking for.

Results By utilizing DCI/ Catalog Rack, and WDS/ WSM ‘s CMS, photo gallery, and live chat, Weathers Auto Supply will be starting their eCommerce site in the fast lane.  It isn’t just a story of functionality, the design of this site makes you want to do business with Weathers Auto Supply.  They are more than just a distributor, they are car and truck people…just like their customers.

Client QuoteOur experience working with the team from WDS has been extraordinary. They've taken what looked like a daunting process and turned it into something simple. They've exceeded our expectations in every possible way.
-Mike Mason, Owner

Innovative Diesel - eStore

Client Since 2002,Innovative Diesel Performance, llc. (IDP) has grown into a superior performance parts distributor, while also continuing to excel in their core business of custom tuning any Ford, GM, or Volkswagen diesel vehicle.  IDP’s expertise benefits customers by ensuring the parts they purchase are guaranteed to work for each specific need, and their custom tuning knowledge is unsurpassed, having custom tuned the highest power Ford diesel on record using their Dynojet 224XLC.

Project Overview/Challenge Having an eCommerce site since 1999, IDP was faced with the daunting task of integrating their ever expanding product offering into a new eCommerce platform.  IDP was pleasantly surprised at the seamless DCI & Catalog Rack integration process, and the ease of changing pricing on the fly.  Web Shop Manager’s (WSM) automated nightly Google Base feed has been a huge advantage for IDP allowing their automotive products to be showcased not only on the IDP site, but on Google Shopping as well.

Solution Web Design, Web Designers, Web Hosting, E-Commerce, Content Management System, Data Import, DCI / Catalog Rack, Blog, Search Engine Optimization

Results Aided by DCI/ Catalog Rack, WDS/ WSM ‘s CMS, photo gallery, calendar, and blog, IDP has achieved a product showcase that is worthy of their exceptional level of customer care. In some cases, the website serves as the first impression of their business to the customer.  Now, IDP can be confident that the customer feels at ease knowing they are working with a company that cares about finding the perfect solution for them both online and in person.

Client Quote Working with the team and the WSM product has been nothing short of a successful and great experience.  Dana and Ryan have been awesome to work with and have met all of our needs.  I'd recommend them to anyone and have done so many times since being introduced to the product.

Goodies Speed Shop - eStore

Client Looking at the new Goodies Speed Shop logo brings back memories of the good old days of yesteryear. Peering into the store as it is today you will see that Goodies Speed Shop is not just a façade without the ability to back up the name with some real performance that legends are made of. Goodies is putting some old fashioned hard work into customer service that will have you thinking you are in the “Full Service” lane at a 1950’s gas station. Combined, the Goodies crew has well over 200 years of hot rodding experience to help you get what you need when you need it. You can’t touch that kind of personalized support by calling a catalog driven warehouse.

Project Overview/Challenge Prior to working with Web Design Solutions and Web Shop Manager Goodies Speed Shop only had an information website. They made attempts to develop an automotive ecommerce site but were never able to finish that part of the site. They have so many automotive parts and automotive accessories that the creating and managing of the product pages was overwhelming.

Solution Web Design, Web Designers, Web Hosting, E-Commerce, Content Management System, Data Import, DCI / Catalog Rack

Results A few of the key features that make Goodies Speed Shop automotive ecommerce site a great success is the data import tool, CMS, photo gallery, and the ease of order processing. Not only were the features important but so was design. Because of the type of company they needed a certain nostalgic and retro feel. This challenge was met by great success from the WDS design team.

Data Import was crucial to make it easy for Goodies Speed Shop to get the number of products they wanted into the store. The import feature allowed them to go from 20K or so up to 200K products right out the box, which is really exciting!

Working with DCI / Catalog Rack, Goodies Speed Shop has available up to 1 Million SKUs with an interface that allows them to set all their own pricing and have that information synchronized with WSM. The data feed that DCI / Catalog Rack provides contains a wealth of information from installation instructions to product features and loads of meta data. Use this feature to enhance your automotive ecommerce site in a flash!
