Roberson's Fine Jewelry http://www.robersonsfinejewelry.com Development Need: Roberson's Fine Jewelry wanted a total website to showcase their focus on custom design and jewelry repair facility. Additionally, they responded to their customers and added GemFind's GF Diamond LINK&trad; diamond database to their site as well as the GemFind Ring Builder interface as a front end to that database. GemFind Solution: Implemented custom-look total website package with Macromedia Flash™ animation and a artistic look that reflected Roberson's in-store style. Integrated the GF Diamond LINK™ database and the GF Ring Builder. Client Comments: Morgan, I wanted to say thanks again for an incredible job building Roberson's new website. We were looking for a site that was different than your typical website, and you and Gemfind exceeded our expectations. One of the most impressive aspects of the entire process was your patience in working with someone who didn't know much about building a website. We at Roberson's feel that you and Gemfind have built a website that will improve our business and provide the resources to be leaders in our field. Thank you again for an outstanding job. Sincerely, Jason Rainwater, Operations Manager |
