The views expressed by contributors are not necessarily those of the editor or publisher. they are actually buying and they want to see it all easily and in an attractive environment that reflects the quality of the installer’s products and service. This initiative means that all our existing installers and new installers coming on board with Glazerite can have their own up-to-date, versatile and customer-friendly site that meets their customers’ expectations as well as being a proactive and effective selling tool.” The websites are currently being offered to all of Glazerite’s customers regardless of company size; it is quick and easy to set up and is customised to meet each companies individual requirements. It enables each one to select and feature the individual components of Glazerite’s extensive product range that they sell – and even add on non-Glazerite products such as fascia’s and soffits. Glazerite will also help with SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) work to give installers good search engine positioning, helping to enhance the positioning of the site when consumers are searching for windows and doors. They will provide links to any Facebook or Twitter pages and can either provide a new URL address or attach the new site to an existing one. Installers using the company’s range of composite door offers, can also have a design feature added to the site, based on either VEKA UK or Solidor ranges. Jason Thompson added: “We appreciate many of our installer partners are very busy working in a very buoyant marketplace and simply don’t have the time to create or update their own websites. We can now take the pain out of this by doing this work on their behalf, starting with a simple application form that can be completed either online or even faxed.” ‘We can now take the pain out of this’ The website initiative is part of the newly enhanced Glazerite Online Support Package, with many features to help every Glazerite installer to make the very most of every aspect of internet communication and marketing. Glazerite is one of the VEKA UK group’s largest trade fabricators and is a major supporter of both Network VEKA and the recently-launched VEKA Approved Installer Scheme.
