Winston-Salem, N.C. – Nationwide Marketing Group (NMG) is working
with web developers Site on Time and CMIC Data to provide its independent dealer
members with more tools to build a competitive online presence.
According to CMIC Data president
Bill Ward, “Site On Time’s website platform coupled with CMIC’s extensive
product database will offer dealers a quality, effective and affordable website
while offering their customers the optimal online shopping experience.”
Ward noted that CMIC’s
database system currently drives many of NMG’s programs. The database keeps
track of dealers’ brands, product catalogs and promotions so that each website
will have a personalized front end that takes full advantage of the member’s
local presence and brings it online.
“This addition to our
existing web services fills an important niche of step-up websites that can
capitalize on the growing number of consumers who research products online
before they make a purchase,” said NMG member services operations director
Frank Sandtner. “These fully featured sites lead online product searches
directly to the store where sales teams can then provide additional information
on pricing, package quotes, and full service store advantages that make and
complete the sale.”
According to Site on
Time, NMG dealers can choose from four complete website packages that are
priced to include website hosting, product catalog, optional shopping carts,
payment options, and continuous support. Add-ons include an outlet store,
service inquires and even gift registries.
“Any of our packages will
allow the dealer to create a unique presence on the internet,” said Site on
Time principal Jennifer Danko. “We have been working side by side with Bill and
CMIC Data for years. This new partnership with NMG will only serve to enhance
the web services they already offer to their members.”
Site on Time and CMIC
Data will both be exhibiting at next week’s
, NMG’s biannual buying
show and conference, which will be held Feb. 20-23 at the Venetian and Palazzo
hotels in Las Vegas. The buying and marketing organization for independent
appliance, electronics and furniture dealers is projecting record attendance
for the event.
