PADI Launches Enhanced B2B Online Shopping Cart
Rancho Santa Margarita, CA – 7 February 2007 – PADI Members now have an even easier
and more efficient way to order and manage their educational inventory thanks to
PADI’s newly upgraded business to business online shopping cart. Launched on 2 February
2007, the updated shopping cart enables members to place and track orders, view
purchase history and get the latest information about new products and special promotions.
PADI’s online shopping cart never closes and instantly recognizes PADI Members when
they log on to the Pro Section at padi.com. The new iteration of PADI’s online shopping
cart features the latest technology and offers several key features:
- The new online catalog offers prompts to view related, new or upgraded products,
keeping PADI Members informed of the latest developments
- Recurring order function allows for effortless placement of repeat orders
- Quick Order option allows busy PADI Members to “enter and go" by simply entering
a product number
- Checkout options let PADI Members view costs for various shipping methods such as
ground, second day air or overnight
Upgrading the online shopping cart capabilities is just one of the many ways the
PADI Organization is expanding online services to better meet member demand. “Customers
now expect online shopping convenience and PADI Members are no exception,” commented
PADI Americas Vice President of Sales and the International Resort and Retailer
Associations Services, Bob Coleman. “The PADI Organization is dedicated to meeting
member demand by providing the best service - online and otherwise - to help our
members maximize their profits.”
PADI’s online shopping cart is currently available to members in the US and will
be launching in other world markets later in 2007. To learn more about the enhanced
