Assistech launches a new rating service

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Tucson, Arizona -- ASSISTECH has just introduced a new rating service which allows its customers to read and write product reviews for items they have purchased from the Company.

The so-called Five-Star Rating System resembles the one used by Amazon.com, through which shoppers can rate an item in various categories (e.g., product quality, easy of use, etc.) The reviewer can also write comments in the space provided about their experience as a consumer.

"By implementing this technology, we believe we're providing shoppers a useful tool they can use before making a final decision as to what product to buy", said Oliver Simoes, the company president.

Before reviews are published, they need to be approved by an in-house editor to ensure they are in conformity with the company guidelines.

ASSISTECH is in the process of creating a separate product database, apart from its shopping cart, to host the rating service. Telephone products (including TTYs) and alarm clocks are ready for review. Other items will be added gradually until the entire line of products is available in the new system.

To review an item, follow these simple steps:

1. Find the product page for the item you want to review. (Use the search box.)

2. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and select "Write a review!"

3. Follow the instructions on the review form.

4. Preview and submit your review.

ASSISTECH plans on doing a targeted email campaign in the near future to raise awareness about this new service.
