Case Study: Western Power Sports boosts online sales and web performance with Profound Logic RPGsp

Western Power Sports Serves Up a Powerful New IBM i E-commerce Solution

Western Power Sports, a fast-growing online retailer with a large product catalog, needed a more flexible and easy-to-use web solution that could work with its existing IBM i (AS/400) platform. After struggling with several other web development products and outgrowing them, the company turned to Profound Logic and its RPGsp rapid web development environment to avoid costly custom development and reduce the learning curve for its IT team.

Profound Logic’s RPGsp enabled Western Power Sports to quickly build and customize six websites using existing RPG logic and built-in wizards, with just two people maintaining them on a part-time basis. The company reported $250,000 a day in online revenue, a 500% increase in sales, and now generates 50% of total sales online, with about 150,000 monthly visitors, over one million page views, and 17,000 orders.
