A New Look For QED Online

Business Bits - Wednesday, October 14, 2009
QED national distributor of CCTV consumables and equipment has given their website a total overhaul.

Visitors to the new site will be greeted by a fresh interface with a straightforward navigation system using branded icons and the companies purple colour staying constant throughout.

As well as a new look, QED have informed us that the website packs in more products, more specification sheets, more product images and more product information.

Dave Huxley, QED’s European Sales Manager commented “We update our website with new content on a weekly basis and as such, our old site was becoming too big for its original design, it was literally bursting out!” Dave continued “our new site allows visitors to easily find the information they are looking for even though we have increased the content on the site by an additional 30%.”

As well as the usual product display and product information, QED have created a tool they call “Products for Projects”.  With this, visitors to the site can find products related to a particular type of job, such as school installations, a commercial property CCTV install or a small scale CCTV install.  All the products that may be required for this type of job will be presented for the visitor to see and get information about.

Dave Huxley commented further, “We wanted to make it as easy as possible for our customers to find as much information as possible on our products, as quickly as possible.  We hope that by using new and interesting methods to do this that customers will enjoy using our site and keep coming back.”

The new QED website can be found at www.qed-online.co.uk

The King is back!

The current economic climate is challenging most companies in the security industry to say the least!

QED, national distributor of Security Consumables, tell us how they have made changes to their brand to help service their customer base more effectively during these times.

Since formation in 1997, QED have distributed a range of security consumables and more recently security equipment, including items such as BNC Connectors and Cable all the way through to DVR’s and CCTV Cameras.  This approach has led QED to supply over 6,000 different products to the industry.

QED believe their image has been blurred through their offering to the market so they’ve made changes to focus their business on Security Consumables.  Matt Byrom, QED’s Marketing Manager says “Consumables are what QED was built on and what we are best at.  We are able to supply almost any First Fix Consumable product required for an installation, which makes buying an easy decision when installers are putting a project plan together.”

Matt Byrom continued, “We understand that there are many companies in the market that offer security equipment.  However there is nowhere else that you can buy the range of Security Consumables you can from QED.  From Cable and Connectors to PSU’s and Fixings, QED can offer everything an installer needs to actually fit a job.”

QED say they are making these changes to give the installer what they want and need.  “If companies know they can get all their First Fix Items from one place with one order, one delivery and one invoice, this simplifies their whole buying process and will help their company become more profitable” says Matt Byrom.

Many companies are changing in these times, QED are saying that this is simply giving them the opportunity to make changes for the better.

“With over 4,000 different security consumable items, QED have a great offering in this area, on price, quality and range.  We see this as the main focus of our business going forward.” comments Matt Byrom.

To re-introduce their business to the market in this new form, QED have adopted the tag line ‘King of Consumables’.  QED believe they are able to offer everything you need for your installation.  Is QED the King?
