Beyond Stores Ranked Among Top E-commerce Sites in North America for Second Straight Year

    DAVIE, FL, May 19, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Beyond Stores, a Davie, Florida-based e-retailer, was recently included as a member of Internet Retailer's Second 500 Guide, a listing of the best up-and-coming online retailers in North America, for the second straight year. The list shows the "more innovative and aggressive" e-retailers offering new and more competitive models that utilize agile marketing tactics and target niche segments better than larger e-commerce companies. The list is indicative of companies whose upward mobility is a strong predictor of their future success; companies previously included on the list of Second 500 e-commerce sites have moved into the Top 500 in subsequent years.

A member of the list for the second consecutive year, Beyond Stores is ranked #762, rising from #791 last year. In 2014, sales grew to $10.6 million, up from $7.6 million in 2013.

Mark Ginsberg, Chief Marketing Officer for Beyond Stores, relates: "By focusing on digital advertising, online marketplace expansion, and highly targeted messaging, we have been able to effectively grow and expand the business. Our emphasis on customer service and the addition of dozens of high quality vendors has served as catalysts for our continued growth."

"Our core focus for growth has been both within our current target markets as well as intercontinental expansion", says Beyond Stores Chief Operations Officer Sean Weiss. "With the launch of our site in the United Kingdom, we are expanding our operations to the European market, where we see great potential for success. Through our partnerships with leading European furniture vendors and fulfillment suppliers, Beyond Stores has positioned itself to become a leader in the European home goods and decor markets as well."

Beyond Stores Managing Director David Fingerer relates: "We are extremely pleased with our continued growth and forecast additional success in 2015. Through technological investment and development, along with a highly targeted focus on further improvements to our customer service and acquisition models, Beyond Stores is anticipating bolstered growth and expansion in the upcoming quarters.
