GoodBarry

GoodBarry is a Content Management System that runs website, email marketing and online shop, while automatically growing the customer database. GoodBarry is revolutionary because it has integrated everything that an online business owner needs under one “roof”, and found a way to offer it all at a very affordable cost. This has allowed any serious startup and small business owner to compete side by side with the big online players. 

Website

Besides text, pictures and video, there are a number of specialized interactive modules you may want to integrate with your online business websites. With regular hosting, it would take a lot of resources to build, assemble or subscribe to some of these features. GoodBarry, however, includes many of them within its CMS platform:

Rotating Ads

Ad rotators are groups of images, flash objects or snippets of HTML that you can place anywhere on your website. Each time a customer visits a web page with an ad rotator, the system will randomly select one item from the group and display it.

Announcements

Add company press releases or news items here and easily publish them on your website. Select an announcement to edit its details, classify it, assign it to an RSS channel or make it a 'Member Only' announcement. 

Bookings

The booking feature enables your customers to make bookings on your website for specific events. The system will track capacity and will send follow-up emails to customers before, on and after the booking date to maximize customer experience.

Comments

This is the list of comments that customers have left on your website. Your customers can leave comments and rate just about any content on your website including web pages, FAQs, announcements, product, blogs and more.

FAQ area

Frequently Asked Questions or FAQs are a set of commonly asked questions and answers on your website that help with customer questions. Select an FAQ to edit its details, classify it, assign it to an RSS channel, or make it a 'Member Only' FAQ.

Literature

Literature is any document on your website that your customers can download. By using this feature you can capture usage statistics on who is downloading your documents. Select a literature to edit its details, classify it, assign it to an RSS channel or make it a 'Member Only' literature. 

Photo Galleries

Photo galleries are any collection of images in a folder within your website that you want to display as a photo gallery. The system will automatically create thumbnails and display descriptions of images that you specify. 

Site Search

You can quickly add search functionality to your website and make your web pages, announcements, FAQs, Web App items, and literature documents, including PDF and MS Word documents searchable.

Sitemap

By arranging your web pages into their proper hierarchy you can take advantage of the sitemap and “breadcrumbs” modules. For example when you place the breadcrumbs module on your \'Management Team\' web page the system will generate a map: Home > About Us > Management Team. This allows visitors to quickly find their way around and directly jump to any part of your site. 

Web Apps

Web Apps allow you to easily create listings with multiple views, layers of detail and display variations that interact with the user based on the way you programmed them. A good example would be a listing of mobile phones made for different mobile networks. Depending on the customer’s selection of the region and network, the appropriate models would show in the listing. The customer would be able to select one of them and see a more detailed view and description,  as well as be able to make a remark in the comments area that would be sent to you for review. The entire interaction would be traced in the database for your records and  future analysis. 

Web Forms

You can use a point-and-click approach to create web forms that capture leads from your website. You can attach a business process to any web form that notifies you and your sales team via email or SMS of new leads with follow-up reminders and escalations.

Online Store

A multilayered section of the website that allows customers to view your products, read descriptions, place them into their cart, select shipping method and make online payments.

Blog

Blogs are very useful for making frequent text updates on your site. Your entries show up as listings stamped with date and time, archived and searchable. A good reason to have a blog would be to update the visitors on the status of a project, inventory, or just to share a joke of the day.

Forum

Forums enable you to grow your own online community and credibility on your website. They are similar to Blogs because they are date/time-stamped, archived, and have searchable listings. Forums, however, allow visitors to log in and make their own comments. Forums are an extremely useful means of customer support where customers with similar problems can interact and help each other even when you don’t have an answer.

Calendar

You can integrate a calendar right into your pages showing time-stamped events and details.

Content Management System

With the GoodBarry CMS, not only can you manage the content of your website on your own, but you can also add, modify or remove components in minutes. Here are some of the useful tools integrated within the platform.

Sitewalk

Sitewalk is a way of editing the website content by going through the website, as it appears on the internet, and clicking on the item you want to edit. The editor immediately opens in a new window and you can make your change right there. How much easier can it get? 

Dynamic Menus

Dynamic menus are navigational menus used throughout your website. The best thing about them is you don't need to do any programming. And if in the future you add a new menu item, it will automatically appear on your website without you having to lift a finger! 

Secure Zones

Secure zones are the secure or Member-Only areas on your website. You can have an unlimited number of secure areas on your website. You can also manage each customer's access to secure zones and when that access should expire. 

RSS Channel

You can syndicate and share any content in your website including blogs, web pages, FAQs, announcements, Web App items and more using RSS channels. You can create as many RSS channels as you require.

Sales and Marketing Tools

Besides giving you the tools to build, customize and edit your website, the GoodBarry Content Management System empowers you with many E-commerce and E-Marketing tools necessary to run an online business behind the scenes.

Email and Webmail

POP Email and webmail are a part of your hosting package so you can communicate with your customers using an email address that reflects the name of your business.  

Secure E-Commerce

The E-commerce module allows you to create and customize product listings, catalogs, affiliate programs, gift vouchers, discount codes, shipping options, tax codes, and payment gateways.

Customer Relation Management (CRM)

A built-in tool, integrated with all of GoodBarry's features, that enabls you to provide better service for your customers, without any extra effort. It includes a live feed of customer’s actions, central management of cases, orders and more.  

Tasks, Calls and Meetings

You can assign tasks to most items in the system such as your customers, cases, orders and so forth. You can optionally set reminders so you are notified about any follow-ups.

E-Marketing

E-Marketing includes a list of email recipients and the Email Campaign engine. You can grow your lists by adding a subscription form to your web pages or by manually uploading or adding recipients. The Email campaigns engine lists past campaigns, campaigns yet to be sent and those that are still in draft mode. You can also quickly create follow-up campaigns based on the existing ones. 

Traffic Analysis and Reports

You can monitor all activities of your website at any time through analysis reflected in a number of built-in reports such as Customer report, Website repot, E-commerce report, Admin Usage report, as well as through your own custom reports.
