DerShop vs TXT Place

Serverless open source ecommerce webshop

A traditional eCommerce outfit produces around 12 tonnes of CO2 emissions throughout a year with 1 million page views a month through power wastage from idling servers. Our goal is to produce a sustainable eCommerce webshop ecosystem that helps businesses reduce their carbon footprint & operating costs while at the same time improving their customer engagement.

We believe an open source approach is the best way of tackling these issues by giving developers the tools they need to build eCommerce platforms that are sustainable for the future & can scale to modern eCommerce webshop requirements.

Text message marketing and lead generation for real estate professionals

TXT Place allows real estate agents, brokers and landlords to provide property information and photos 24/7 via text messages, QR codes and mobile-friendly property websites. Most of us have a smartphone within reach and texting a short code is all it takes to get more details about the property.

TXT Place delivers information within seconds and prospects don’t have to listen to agent’s voicemail greeting anymore when the agent is not available. Studies show that people prefer texting over calling, so providing information via text messages will also increase response rate.

Best of all TXT Place captures name and phone number of prospective buyers or tenants and can instantly notify agent while they are still on the property for a follow-up.
