About this app
OBJECTIVE
Helvetia Demo app is designed to educate young entrepreneurs and business women on how to open and run their own “Online Store” using an app. An Online store does not substitute your physical store, but it complements it. It is a trend - all over the world - to serve clients using both types, physical stores and Online Stores.
COST REDUCTION
An Online Store app reduces those expensive operative costs such as electricity, building rents, permits, etc. The online store app does not require personnel extra to be operated neither new specialized staff. Besides that, the Online Store does not demand seasonal decoration (Christmas, Easter, independence) nor require investment on furniture, displays, etc. In fact, most Online Stores operate from your own company storage warehouses or even, from a house. Goods bought are delivered directly to the client's house by a courier paid by the client, or sent to your physical stores, where clients will come to collect. Finally, since the costs of operating the Online Store are lower, the owner of the business can reduce their product prices, becoming then more competitive in the market.
