FurnishNet
Unveils New Website
AUGUST 21,
2000
CANTON,
MA - With its sights set on enhancing customer service
and encouraging greater interaction with its target
markets, FurnishNet Inc., a leading facilitator of
electronic document trading between companies in the
home furnishings industry, today unveils a radically
new and completely remodeled Web site at www.FurnishNet.com.
The
remodeled site is the result of extensive site evaluation,
planning and redesign and possesses more than just
a new look and feel. Though it represents the Company's
first steps toward instilling a greater sense of community
among companies who visit FurnishNet.com, the site
strives to create an easy to use hub for all FurnishNet
clients.
Among
its outstanding new features, the site is more user-friendly
and faster to navigate. The site's client area uses
128 bit SSL security and allows users many different
ways to customize the way they send and receive electronic
business documents.
"Our
long-term success as a facilitator of the exchange
of business documents is largely defined by our ability
to truly understand our customers needs," said Kevin
Kelly, Vice President of Operations. "The remodeled
site will help us establish a meaningful one-to-one
relationship with them, which allows us to better
address their needs from a functionality, reliability
and security standpoint."
Executives of the company determined that the old
site was static and one-dimensional and needed to
be redeveloped to provide more benefit to FurnishNet
customers and other visitors. According to Kevin Kelly,
the new site is a pivotal step in the company's plans
to expand its presence in the Internet electronic
commerce space.
