Default I need help (calling all webmasters)

Hey webmasters, a fellow techie needs help, I need to know about any websites that have builders SPECIFICALLY for sales. One of my friends has been trying to sell stuff around town, but wants to expland to the market reaching Locally, Regionally, Nationally and Globally. As for hosting, 1&1 is going to be used for that. I have frontpage so I could build it but it would be much easier to have a sales wizard helping out.

Appreciate the help!

frontpage=crappy design...use a CMS or portal so you can make updates, blogs, news, new products, and sales easily updateable.

I am fairly fluent with HTML, PHP, SQL etc,


A CMS solution is a really good idea for a N00b

its really probably what he would need. easy to customize, easy to update, and very little manual coding involved. I think some CMS systems look pretty good.
