Shoebuy.com’s November visits rises 40%

Shoebuy.com reports that its number of unique visitors for November rose 40% to 1.5 million from 1.07 million, as sales rose more than 35% over the prior month. President Scott Savitz adds that Shoebuy continues to see year-to-year sales increases of 100%, with unit sales this year at more than 450,000, up from about 200,000 last year.

Savitz attributes the November increase to strong sales in winter footwear and a range of gift items including handbags, slippers, belts, luggage and other accessories. He also attributes growth to a focus on customer service that includes free shipping on both orders and returns and $1 billion in available inventory tied to drop-ship agreements with more than 200 brands.
