King Tut Exhibit Launches New Ecommerce Site Powered by UniteU

August 03, 2005 (PRLEAP.COM) Technology News
Rochester, NY (August,2005) – When Arts and Exhibitions, the organization behind the eagerly awaited Tutankhamun and the Golden Age of the Pharaohs exhibit, selected an ecommerce provider they did their homework and it’s paying off.

“We are very pleased with the website (http://store.kingtut.org). It’s clear to see the relatively small investment into UniteU will be paid back many times over,” says Curtis Bechdel of Arts and Exhibitions. “I’ve worked with many network and internet consultants over time, and have found the staff of UniteU to be among the best I have worked with to date.”

In addition to bringing solid industry experts to the project, UniteU delivered an ecommerce solution that was integrated with the exhibition’s retail store system. This type of integration has become a top priority for an increasing number of retailers as they make the move to sell online.

When specialty retailers decide to get serious about their online business they look for an experienced provider with a proven solution that integrates with their other systems and scales with growth, and they seek a provider who has a commitment to ongoing support.

”We are a very customer-centric company,” reports Rebecca Ramme, Director of Business Development for UniteU Technologies, Inc. (www.uniteu.com), “and our customers demand that we help them streamline their online operation. As their volume increases we work with them to eliminate manual steps throughout the entire lifecycle – from product and shopper management to order processing and fulfillment. We also provide web marketing services that drive traffic to the site and industry leading analytics that provide feedback on the ROI for their online campaigns.”

In responding to their customer’s needs, UniteU has delivered sites that integrate to numerous POS, accounting, CRM and fulfillment systems. Experience with and in-depth knowledge of their store inventory control system is what first attracted Arts and Exhibitions. With over 100 Retail Pro® integrated sites, UniteU was the first and is still the leading Retail Pro e-commerce development partner.

“I selected UniteU at the recommendation of Canadian Retail Systems, my representative for Retail Pro,” continues Bechdel. “I was told of the nearly seamless integration between the powerful features of UniteU that combined with the familiar reporting and tracking abilities of Retail Pro. This coupled with Retail Pro’s direct interface to UPS Worldship meant a streamlined, relatively simple roll-out of our web store.”

“We are confident our Web store will allow us to continue to build on our sales, and the features of UniteU and Retail Pro will allow us to manage the workload in a simple fashion.”
