| What's new?
It's now 10 days into the New Year. How are you doing at keeping true to your website improvement resolutions?
Let's see if we can get you kick started with the new GF Ring Builder ...
This is the first of many new products that we are proudly introducing this year -- our revamped GF Ring Builder features over 300 mounting from Unique Settings each of which can be viewed with any one of 10 different diamond shapes. Let your customers use the interface from the comfort of their own home, or better yet, use it with them in the store when you don't have the item in the showcase. After the item is configured with the desired shape for the center stone, the customer then chooses an actual diamond from a preferred list of diamond dealers which you customize in the GemFind admin panel. There is no better way to improve cash flow and simultaneously increase selection than by using a virtual inventory to supplement your in-store offering.
The GF Ring Builder can be seamlessly embedded into your existing website, tied into your existing shopping cart or config
ured are part of a new website package from GemFind with all the bells and whistles.
Check it out at www.ringbuilder.com and download the brochure for more info.
As always give us a call if you want to schedule an admin demo to see how easy it is to configure retail pricing and vendors.
Call us for a demo anytime.... at 800.373.4373.
