Creation of the Side Walk Shop
By John Marx on 10/31/2016
On October 14, 2014, the idea came about for a low cost and efficient eCommerce site for people in and around Valparaiso Indiana. We didn't want to charge on a per item basis whether it be a percent or a flat-fee. The goal was provide businesses the opportunity to grow without a huge overhead. The eCommerce solution we chose was called "Purchase Local" initially as we were going to focus solely within the Northwest Indiana area. Flash forward 2 years, some company growth, and "Side Walk Shop" was born. Based on the same premise of the purchase local concepts this will be nationwide with a full marketing budget and team standing behind it.
