Plimus Inc., provider of the leading independent outsourced e-business platform, announced the release of a new web destination at www.plimus.com. The new site highlights the depth and breadth of the e-business platform, and showcases the power of community within the e-commerce space.

“The power of the Plimus solution is all with our vendors,” commented Simon Jones, VP of Marketing for Plimus. “Our goal in this new destination was to provide a location where they find out more not only about Plimus, but also about one another. The opportunity for valuable business-to-business relationships to drive new growth for all vendors in 2009 is huge.”

The new destination site offers e-commerce companies community and interaction capabilities that will allow them to build new corporate relationships, and execute cross-marketing and cross-sales campaigns. Each member of the community can market their profile, maintain their own blog and post and respond to offers for new and valuable business opportunities.

“We believe that the growth opportunity in 2009 will revolve around vendors’ ability to create, and execute upon, cross-company initiatives,” noted Hagai Tal, CEO of Plimus. “By offering an online destination where e-commerce players can connect and brainstorm new campaigns, we are confident Plimus will help vendors to expand their reach and grow their e-business revenues.”

Within the new destination site is a wealth of information regarding the Plimus e-business platform, with an emphasis on the e-commerce engine used by thousands of vendors worldwide to market, sell and distribute their digital offerings. Industry estimates show a prime opportunity for vendors of digital goods and services to expand their online sales in 2009 and 2010, as the fixed cost challenges of direct selling stretch already tight budgets.

“Plimus exists to help vendors grow their e-business revenues,” concluded Jones. “As the market comes to terms with a tight economic environment, hosted e-commerce makes increasing sense for vendors of all sizes and in all locales. With this new destination site, anyone looking to sell digital goods and services online can quickly evaluate the benefits of the offering clearly.”
