Building a website in the run-up to Christmas can be the perfect opportunity to cash in on increased activity among shoppers.
John Lewis has just announced it has taken £88 million in sales both in its stores and online last week.
This figure is up 14 per cent on the previous week and represents a record-breaking 29 per cent increase on the retailer's two-year figure.
Fashion, beauty products and tech gadgets such as the Kindle all proved popular among John Lewis shoppers as Christmas approaches, but the firm's director of operational development highlighted that it's about more than product offering.
Lesley Ballantyne commented that John Lewis is committed to offering its customers the best prices, quality and service both online and in its shops.
And with shoppers increasingly shunning busy stores for the convenience of shopping online, building a website may be the perfect answer for retailers hoping to cash in.
By using a
website builder such as Mr Site's Takeaway website software, your business can tap into the latest spending trend.
