Online shopping carts tend to happen on the fly.  We start our businesses and have an idea of what we think we need online to meet our sales demands.  Then, orders start flying in and before we know it… we are BUSY.  So busy pleasing the customer and launching new ideas that our shopping carts aren’t the top priority anymore.  Before long, we’re “making do” with a cart that was actually created for a start up company and not a flourishing business.  We want options & features beyond what we ever imagined that we might need. It can all seem very overwhelming, time consuming & costly!
