After 99 Years The Better Business Bureau Finally Has Competition

NEW YORK, NY, July 14, 2011 (Press-News.org) In today's cautious society a customer may become apprehensive about making a purchase from a website they have never used or hiring a service they have never heard of. To help remove some of a consumer's skepticism Customer Trusted , was launched. Customers view various web sites to see who is offering the best deal, best price and more bang for the buck. Customer Trusted was created to enhance the relationship between businesses and its customers.

Customer Trusted is a third-party verification seal that's easy to recognize and easy to access, letting consumers get back to the business of shopping. The seal appears at the bottom of a businesses website home page and any other landing page. A shopper simply clicks on the seal and the retailer's key information is displayed with a pop-up message, without the consumer having to navigate away from the product page.

Customer Trusted works with businesses, providing them an easy and affordable way to build successful, lasting customer relationships; manage their online reputation; grow their business and increase customer confidence. When customers see the Customer Trusted seal, they know that the business' key information has been verified by an independent third party. The pop-up message includes twenty-one key information elements such as the company's address and telephone number, refund,return and privacy policies, history, ownership and more.

The Customer Trusted verification seal does two very important things. It gives customers piece of mind that they are dealing with a reputable business and at the same time makes it easy for consumers to find verified information...with just one click. Customer Trusted consulted with dozens of top business leaders in the United States in a variety of industries to arrive at the Customer Trusted standard of service.

The Customer Trusted concept has streamlined what other verification seals have been doing. The Better Business Bureau's seal acts like more of a governing body, Angie's list is geared towards contractors and Verisign and 90% of the other seals are geared towards just shopping cart and credit card security issues. The Customer Trusted seal has put together what all the other companies have done, added more elements and geared itself towards both the service industry and online shopping.

"Our first quarter sign up expectations has been better than expected as we have exceeded our initial sign ups by over 1325% says Ben Andrade, Marketing Director for Customer Trusted. "I believe Customer Trusted is taking online stability to the next level and businesses are seeing that. "We help both merchant and the consumer by giving each exactly what the other is looking for to be validated by a third party."
