How to handle multi everything - Sergey Lysak, EltrinoElena Kulbich
Running multiple online and offline stores in different countries and with multiple warehouses sounds like a challenge itself. But there are a lot of solutions that allow you to streamline communication, optimize inventory across all your locations, stores and warehouses. All you need is to apply to your business appropriate bundle of solutions. We’d like to share some useful cases based on our experience of developing multi-stores on Magento.
To boost your eCommerce business using SEO, you need to know and follow certain rules related to web store optimization and maybe even involve bots for necessary signals. According to recent forecasts, companies will spend $65B on SEO in 2016, and much of this budget will be simply wasted and won’t do any good to target sources. Keeping that in mind, it’s crucial to form the strategies aimed at avoiding such foreseeable failure in distributing company resources.
Although Henry Ford claimed that half of his advertising budget was wasted - he couldn’t figure out which half of marketing attempts was useless!
Continuous observations show that organic search result and click-through rate optimization have never been as important as now. Andrey Lipattsev, Senior Search Quality Strategist from Google, highlighted links, content and RankBrain as a the top 3 ranking signals in Google's search algorithm.

Make implementation of third party elements in magento 2 in 5-times easierElena Kulbich
There is one magic tool that simplifies development on Magento 2. We recommend remembering its name, because today we are giving kudos to one and only - the 'Composer'. Composer is a dependency manager for PHP that allows you to declare the libraries your project depends on, and it will manage (install/update) them for you. Sometimes Composer is referred to as the library manager since this is how it works in general, but when used for some definite local project, Composer becomes a Dependency Manager.
When comparing Magento 2 and Magento 1, you can see that the last one has quite an inflexible structure. Shift from Magento 1 to Magento 2 can be compared to the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, where Pink Floyd gave their famous concert. Magento 1 is perceived as a monolith structure where each module is like another brick of the solid wall. In Magento 2 all modules are separated and independent like bricks of the broken wall, except for the modules that are marked as “dependent” in the configuration. So the Composer helps to crash the unbreakable wall.
- Все успешные компании – клиент ориентированы. Если это не так, то вы либо монополист на рынке, либо промышляете криминальными делами)
- Лояльность клиента – главная ценность, но она стоит денег. А игнорирование проблем ваших клиентов будет стоить вам гораздо дороже.
- Довольный клиент может рассказать максимум 6-7 людям о том, как он счастлив. Тогда как недовольный с вероятностью большей в 3 раза будет жаловаться своим друзьям о своем негативном опыте.
В итоге 80% людей, которые могли стать вашими клиентами – не станут ими
- Ваши самые несчастные клиенты — это ваш самый главный источник для изучения
- Клиенты не ожидают, что вы будете совершенны. Они ожидают, что вы исправите ситуацию, если что-то пойдет не так

Multi channel customer support by Sergey LysakElena Kulbich
Nowadays all successful businesses are customer oriented. But if it isn't it has to be ruthless monopolist or criminal.
Customer’s loyalty is the main value. It costs money. But ignoring customer troubles costs much more.
Satisfied clients can tell 6-7 people how happy they are. But unsatisfied ones 3 times likely to tell their friends about a negative experience, they make it public through numerous social channels as a result business will get bad reputation and negative reviews. After that 80% of people that may be your customers won’t buy.
It’s better to prevent this issue providing effective customer support. That’s why eCommerce businesses in need of reliable system that will help to organize requests from all sources in a single place, automatize assigning and other processes inside organization and analyze results.
“Your most unhappy customers are your greatest source of learning” (Bill Gates).
They complain, in details explain their ‘pain’, show your weaknesses. You just have to make right conclusions and improvements.
“Customers don’t expect you to be perfect. They expect you to fix things when they go wrong” (Donald Porter)
