Bright Spectrum, Inc releases Abandoned Cart Revenue Recovery tool for the AspDotNetStorefront ecommerce platform. Tool aims to increase the revenue of store owners by using automatic, customized re-marketing emails to entice visitors that have previously abandoned their cart during the checkout process to return to the store and complete their purchase.

The AJAX QuickOrder form, which is already on a live site at www.emeraldbiosystems.com/t-quickorder.aspx, is designed to make ordering, for site visitors who already know a products SKU number or are ordering from a catalog, quick and easy. Rather than making a visitor, who knows a SKU number, conduct a search or have to browse through the site, they can simply start typing into the form and a list of matching SKUs is presented to them that they can select.

Bright Spectrum has began developing several .NET based add-on products for the ML and ML9  (Multi-Store) versions of the ASPDotNetStorefront ecommerce platform. 

Bright Spectrum is looking for a Front-End UI/UX Developer and a Backend .NET developer to help with our growing workload.

Bright Spectrum is pleased to announce the launch of a new web site for Prosser Piano and Organ company (www.prosserpiano.com).  Prossers has been a  valued client since 2004 and this is our second redesign for their site since then. 

After about 6-months of nibbling at the progress in between projects we've finally updated the Bright Spectrum web site. This new site is built on DotNetNuke, the content managment platform that we wholeheartedly promote as the best CMS available for the money.

On Friday, July 9th  we lauched the new Taco Time NW web site at www.tacotimenw.com.  The designer on this project was Gravity Creative www.gravitycreative.com. It features a customizable Build-A-Meal functionality that adjust your nutritional values as you change ingredients and you can add your customized item to your My Meal for a full calculation of nutritional values. It also has a customized Google Maps based location finder and great graphic throughout, which tend to make people very hungry.

Up until the release of Internet Explorer 8 I was pretty open to making concessions for the ever-developer-haunting IE6. But now the debate with design partners and customers alike is should we still support it and if so should we make that an extra costs?

Wow, what a couple of months it has been since the last blog post, in a good way of course. The middle of the month of April poured in a bunch of work, including our first Drupal site (which I would not recommend for the faint of heart, but more on that in a later post) and 4 new DotNetNuke sites. Lucky for me we have some great design partners and they all happened to need our services all at the same time. Here is a bit of the work we did over that time:
