George Susini -  Joomla is a content management system, that is open source and free. Virtue mart is a robust eCommerce add on module system for Joomla. Both must be running for this type of store to operate. Joomla presents a very different type of storefront then Zen Cart. Content management systems allow the Small Business owner to update the content on their website without the need for the Web Designer. This type of eCommerce system can effectively be used to produce content that attract perspective buyers in the research phase of their buying decision and also if sending you users directly to the store to buy is not the way you want to present your products.

There are many build in feature or add on modules for Joomla Virtuemart that can easily be installed to enhance the web site, you can add specials of the week for instance that appear on your front-page.

Virtuemart includes all the features expected from an eCommerce online store such as shipping, order management and cross-selling that make this a very robust system. With all the free add-on modules , customization cost are kept to a minimum. Currently we , at Raleigh Tech- George Susini,  are working on two such eCommerce sites that will be fully functional by mid-month.
