			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In recent 2 months our Argento theme has become really popular within our clients and the one of the first stores powered with Argento <a href="http://www.motocenterlaba.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.motocenterlaba.com');">Moto center laba</a>  probably explain why it’s so popular. </p>
<h3>Introduction</h3>
<p><img src="http://templates-master.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/logo.gif" alt="" title="logo" width="163" height="70" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-533" /></p>
<p>TSC Laba d.o.o., website represents a motorcycle division known under name <a href="http://www.motocenterlaba.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.motocenterlaba.com');">Moto Center Laba</a> situated in  Ljubljana (BTC shopping area), capital of Slovenia,Europe. Our company was founded in 1997. It&#8217;s a family company owned by two brothers (Bostjan and Simon). Our primary business was and still is annual vehicle inspections. Since 2005 we&#8217;ve opened a motorcycle store and became an exclusive importer of <a href="http://www.alpinestars.com/" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.alpinestars.com');">Alpinestars</a> and Nexx gear. We also sell and repair KTM motorcycles. Our main goal is to become one of top three companies on the motorcycle market in Slovenia. We strongly believe in highest level of professionalism in doing our business. We are proud of our excellent customer support.</p>
<h3>Can you tell us more about your business and ecommerce experience?</h3>
<p>We use ecommerce in our motorcycle division practically since day one. We&#8217;ve started with Joomla and Virtuemart and migrated to Magento in 2009. Ecommerce in our case does not generate that many sales because of the specific products we sell (one usually has to try before buying) but it is an excellent way for first communication with a customer and also a great support place.</p>
<h3>Why you have chosen Magento?</h3>
<p>Magento was chosen because Virtuemart had too many bugs and not enough features. Magento is much more complex and more difficult to customize but when set properly, it offers and amazing experience.</p>
<h3>There are dozens of companies on the market. Why did you decided to start working with Templates Master’s extensions and templates?</h3>
<p>We have tried quite a few templates before Templates Master has crossed our path. But those templates were always unfinished with lack of features and compatibility with other Magento extensions. So far only templates from TM are really made to the last piece and usually it only takes a small tweak or two to make it perfect – in looks and function.</p>
<h3>What our products do you use?</h3>
<p>Prior to today, we&#8217;ve used some templates, upgraded with Prolabels and Ajax Pro. Now we&#8217;re all excited (so are customers) that we got our hands on Argento. Other templates from TM are great, but Argento with it&#8217;s modules is just awesome.</p>

</ul>
<h3>What is your favorite product?</h3>
<p>Easyslide/easybanner. So easy to add CMS contents and it immediately makes great effect on the frontpage.</p>
<h3>Can you give advice to beginners in ecommerce?</h3>
<p>Magento community is free. But using only free extensions, templates etc. will never give you the e-commerce good enough for demanding visitors of your website. Unless you are a great programmer, choose your templates and extensions wisely and don&#8217;t forget that you will need some support on those. Don&#8217;t let few saved bucks turn your e-commerce into a nightmare – for you and your customers.</p>
<h3>What other extensions that are not available at Templates Master you would suggest to focus on?</h3>
<p>We are using other extensions for product videos and custom stock status. We are certain that TM can make better ones.</p>
<h3>Do you have any special offer for our clients?</h3>
<p>We have great offer on motorcycle brands we represent. For customers from EU we always make special deals. Just contact us  at our store <a href="http://www.motocenterlaba.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.motocenterlaba.com');">www.motocenterlaba.com</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today we are glad to continue our case study blog series with post about great company from New York <a href="http://www.supremedefense.com/" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.supremedefense.com');" alt="Spy Cameras">Supreme Defense</a>.</p>
<h3>Introduction</h3>
<p><a href="http://www.supremedefense.com/" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.supremedefense.com');" target="_blank" alt="Survival Gear"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-428" title="Pepper Spray  MACE  Stun Guns  Security &amp; Hidden Cameras" src="http://templates-master.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Pepper-Spray-MACE-Stun-Guns-Security-Hidden-Cameras.gif" alt="" width="203" height="90" /></a></p>
<p>Company started in 2006. Started with selling pepper spray. Have now expanded into a full line of self defense products, surveillance and <a href="http://www.supremedefense.com/spy/hidden-cameras.html" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.supremedefense.com');">spy cameras</a>, and most recently <a href="http://www.supremedefense.com/survival-gear.html" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.supremedefense.com');">survival gear</a>.  We have since grown into a thriving business with strict focus on customer service and a constantly growing inventory. In such a short time, we have helped thousands of people throughout the world protect themselves, their loved ones, and their property.</p>
<h3>Can you tell us more about your business and ecommerce experience?</h3>
<p>I wasn&#8217;t too familiar with ecommerce when I started this business. I had a website built for me by my wholesaler. I quickly learned how fun it was to sell online and work from home. Selling online grew our customer base from hundreds, to millions.</p>
<h3>Why you have chosen Magento?</h3>
<p>We chose Magento because it was loaded with features, free, and the new kid on the block (at the time). I liked the fact that it was new because to me that meant the user community and support was on the rise, and not the downward spiral. Hot software is only hot software until something new comes along&#8230; then the community and developer support begins to dwindle. Magento has been great, and will be great for a long time.</p>
<h3>There are dozens of companies on the market. Why did you decided to start working with Templates Master’s extensions and templates?</h3>
<p>Why do I like Templates Master? I can go on and on with this one&#8230; We used a bunch of different extension and template companies in the beginning, but none come close to the support that we get from Templates Master. Template Master has been great to us. When I send a support email to Templates Master, i know i will get a response quickly and it will be a helpful response. In production sites support like this is critical. You will not find better extension support from any other magento developer. Period.</p>
<h3>What our products do you use?</h3>
<p><a href="http://www.supremedefense.com/" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.supremedefense.com');" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-485" title="supremedefense" src="http://templates-master.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/supremedefense1.jpg" alt="" width="392" height="518" /></a></p>
<ul class="disc">
<li><a href="http://templates-master.com/magento-templates/elastic-magento-template.html" >Elastic Premium Magento Theme</a></li>
<li><a href="http://templates-master.com/magento-templates/mobile-star-android-and-iphone-theme-for-magento.html" >Mobile Star Mobile  Theme</a></li>
<li><a href="http://templates-master.com/magento-extensions/magento-one-page-checkout.html" >Fire Checkout</a></li>
<li><a href="templates-master.com/magento-extensions/magento-navigation-pro.html">Navigation Pro</a></li>
<li><a href="http://templates-master.com/magento-extensions/magento-easy-tabs.html" >Easy Tabs</a></li>
<li><a href="http://templates-master.com/magento-extensions/magento-google-rich-snippets.html" >Google Rich Snippets</a></li>
<li><a href="http://templates-master.com/magento-extensions/magento-easy-catalog-images.html" >Easy Catalog Images</a></li>
</ul>
<p>WISH I COULD AFFORD MORE!! lol</p>
<h3>What is your favorite product?</h3>
<p><a href="templates-master.com/magento-extensions/magento-navigation-pro.html">Navigation Pro</a> is my favorite extension because it gives me complete control over my navigation, which IMO is the most important part of any website. In order to sell, a customer has to find it. Not only is adding links easy, but adding a product block directly in the drop-down is priceless.</p>
<h3>Can you give advice to beginners in ecommerce?</h3>
<p>My advice for beginners is obviously use magento, and use Template Masters extensions whenever possible. Every time I add a Templates Master extension my conversion rate rises.</p>
<h3>What other extensions that are not available at Templates Master you would suggest to focus on?</h3>
<p>I would suggest a featured products extension. Something where you can pick which products to display on home page within its own interface and can be used anywhere by using block block code. With sliders, grid views&#8230;Currently using aheadworks Featured Products 3, but I know TM can do better than them.</p>
<h3>Do you have any special offer for our clients?</h3>
<p>Templates Master customers can use coupon code TM10OFF for 10% any order at <a href="http://www.supremedefense.com/" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.supremedefense.com');" alt="Spy Cameras">Supreme Defense</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today we are glad to start our first case study post series with post about great company from UK  <a href="http://sleepsoftly.co.uk" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/sleepsoftly.co.uk');">Sleepsoftly.co.uk</a>.</p>
<h3>Introduction</h3>
<p><img src="http://templates-master.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/logo.png" alt="" title="logo" width="187" height="131" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-428" /></p>
<p>We are online retail company  <a href="http://sleepsoftly.co.uk" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/sleepsoftly.co.uk');">Sleepsoftly.co.uk</a>  located in the United Kingdom and selling via our website mainly bedroom furniture products such as bedsteads, bean bags, chair beds, divan bed bases, futons, mattresses. We are a family run business based in the South West,  with over twenty five years experience within the mattress and foam cutting business based here in the UK&#8230; Our background originally lies in manufacturing, but we have been spreading our wings recently and have been expanding our customer base.</p>
<h3>Can you tell us more about your business and ecommerce experience?</h3>
<p>We set up our website to sell our products to a far wider audience and we have been working with a number of partners to offer our products through wider sales channels</p>
<h3>Why you have chosen Magento?</h3>
<p>We chose Magento due to the simplicity of the back office, the direct integration of paypal, the opportunity to develop our site as we require to build it based on different functionality e.g one page checkout process vastly improved our conversion level vs the standard Magento registration format</p>
<h3>There are dozens of companies on the market. Why did you decided to start working with Templates Master’s extensions and templates?</h3>
<p>We have found the solution to a number of our issues with the extensions that Template Master have offered for example the Fire checkout has reduced the checkout process from 6 steps to 1 step&#8230;this has led to a far higher level of sales conversion and lowered the level of queries and difficulties our customers were having in completing their orders on our site&#8230;made a massive difference to the ease of payment for our customers. The great aspect with Template Masters is they also offer the service of integrating the extension fully working into our back office, so we can buy the extensions with confidence knowing they will work fully. We have also discussed with Template Master other product ideas and support requirements and they have always been forthcoming and helpful in all these areas</p>
<h3>What our products do you use?</h3>
