Hey there! At Syzmic, we’re often asked for recommendations on plugins, iframes, or API capabilities that help marketing agencies customize their solutions to a specific client’s need.

As we approach the holiday season(and yes it’s approaching fast), our agency partners are looking for a solution for customers that want to showcase their projects without jumping into e-commerce completely. Well, we have the plugin for you!

The Ultimate Product Catalog is a great option. Here are a few reasons why:

• It’s free.
• It can handle an extensive catalog of products.
• It allows for product filtering.
• Each product has its own product page that can house descriptions, pricing, and product specs.
• You can customize the CTA for each product.
• It allows for inquiry submission forms.
• There are social media sharing links.
• It can integrate with WooCommerce. Note: that feature is not free and Syzmic would recommend Shopify if your clients want a complete e-commerce store.

You can check out the demo store here.

Here are some things to consider about the plugin:

• This does require customization fees so expect a $1,500-$2,000 addition to your standard project cost.
• Product imports can be tedious, depending on how many categories, SKUs, and products there are. Syzmic can import them for you but it will be an additional fee. The other option is to have the client import the products themselves to help save on development costs.
• This will require maintenance and continual editing as the client grows so be sure to have maintenance and support lined out.

Overall, it’s a great plugin and we’ve had several excellent outcomes with our customers. This is a great option for clients that are wholesale, specialty retail, or want most of their sales to be in-person. If you have a project in mind, call us and we’ll be happy to give you an estimate.
