PowerReviews Insider

Amidst all this uncertainty in the news these days, there is only one thing we here at PowerReviews know for sure – merchants love our review solution and are adopting it in record numbers.

As of this week (October 15) our 2008 Total Sales YTD (year-to-date) have surpassed total sales for all of 2007. With three consecutive quarters of record growth, sales in Q3 ‘08 were the highest quarterly total this year and in our company’s history.

Besides growing sales we have been growing and diversifying where these sales come from. We formally established our U.K. presence this last quarter with a localized sales, account management and review moderation team. We have more than a dozen sites launched in the UK already, with more to come before the end of the year.

Along with our enterprise efforts, we soft-launched PowerReviews Express, our on-demand solution for today’s smaller online merchants. We have more than 180 additional clients participating in this beta program with more signing up every day!

But the good news doesn’t stop there. Our reviews and recommendations site, Buzzillions.com had equal success adding more than 1 million reviews on more than 100,000 new unique products in the just the past 3-months.

So a BIG KUDDOS to everyone at PowerReviews for this incredible achievement and a special shout-out to our sales and Buzzillions teams for managing this continued growth in business.
