The Challenge
Starshine Music is a leading provider of school musicals, nativities, assemblies and children's songs specifically written for the use in schools, churches and drama groups, used to perform across the UK and worldwide. We have been working with Starshine Music since 2015 and are delighted to be their ecommerce solution provider.
The Project
The project involved updating Starshine onto the latest version of our in-house ecommerce CMS platform, which offers significant improvements over its predecessor, this included;- Improved checkout, including guest checkout
- Faster page load times
- New TAG engine to help visitors filter their products
- Better user account system so clients can self-manage purchases
- Optimised product display with filtering engine
- Improved order management
- Better reporting
- Xero export for accounts
The Results
Using our in-house eCommerce CMS has enabled us to build bespoke functionality specifically tailored to the project requirements that Starshine needed for their website. Using our CMS has meant that we were able to build a website more efficiently than would have been possible with a common off the shelf platform. For Starshine this bespoke requirement included:
- Suggesting licences when products are selected.
- Pay by invoice using a third-party payment facilitator (common with schools and public bodies).
- Bespoke reporting including author royalties.
Starshine now have a seamless eCommerce website that provides them with the functionality and flexibility they required to serve their customers and potential customers online. We are super proud of the new platform and delighted to continue to work with and support all in the Starshine Music team.
