New Century Direct, manufacturer and direct marketer of archival quality storage products and printed point of purchase merchandising products is pleased to announce their strategic partnership with Active Web Group. Under this new strategic partnership Active Web Group will create nine new sites for New Century Direct's family of brands, the first one being www.centurybusinesssolutions.com that launched in April.
Santa Fe Springs, CA (PRWEB) May 19, 2009 -- New Century Direct (NCD), a vertically integrated manufacturer and direct marketer of archival quality storage products and printed point-of-purchase merchandising products, have teamed up with Active Web Group (AWG). Under the strategic partnership AWG has been engaged to create nine new web sites for NCD's family of brands.
NCD, in the continuing process of transforming from a catalog driven company to an online driven sales company, launched the new web site www.centurybusinesssolutions.com in early April. Bernard Findley, Chief Executive Officer of NCD, stated, "What an exciting time for New Century Direct and its family of brands. Coming off an acquisition of the Russell and Miller brands, we are very pleased to announce the launch of the first of nine new web sites created by Active Web Group." AWG, a Long Island, New York based company, offers a number of the newest web techniques enhancing traditional SEO, PPC, and target email blasts campaigns.
Pat Norton, Chief Executive Officer of Active Web Group, commented, "Both teams really came together to launch this site in relatively short order. Matt Heineing and Roland Kravatz pulled extraordinary efforts to meet the tight timelines required by the client. These efforts will allow NCD to quickly replicate the 'store front' among the eight remaining brands."
Findley continues, "We will continue to focus on our vertically integrated business model which provides for higher margins as we manufacture 70% of our own products and primarily sell to end users through direct marketing. Being able to operate at such high margins allows us to reinvest quickly in our marketing programs including the online sales channel."
