A client recently came to me requesting all that AND have it integrated with a new membership site.
They brought all kinds of suggestions for tools that someone had told them about and I reviewed them all and the tools I would normally use in light of the client's specific requirements. Then I came across an email from JROX, the makers of the affiliate management tool that I am using, announcing their new eCommerce JEM, the "only tool you'll ever need to run your store...How does YOUR online presence stack up?2009-01-04T17:07:25+01:002009-01-04T17:07:25+01:002009-01-04T17:07:25+01:00http://www.datagroup.com/joomla/content/view/31/35/For the longest time, it was quite OK to just have a website as a brochure.
