The National Home Furnishings Association has reached an agreement with Velocitags to offer NHFA members affordable tagging solutions.
NHFA and Velocitags, Houston, Texas, negotiated for almost a year on the deal, which lets users quickly create professional tags online for items of any size.
"In an economy when companies are budgeting to save as much as possible, we saw a need to cut down on the time and expense of generating price tags by hand," said Velocitags Founder Alan Lucien. "When considering the cost of supplies and human labor, Velocitags can generate tags for usually 97 percent less money than writing them by hand, therefore allowing the company to change out tags regularly and keep there showrooms looking fresh. Not to mention it eliminates the costly mistake of inaccurate calculations during pricing."
Each user's system stores the product information allowing Velocitags to act as a stand alone solution to automatically calculate pricing, markup and discounts. The system also can utilize manufacturer price lists or a user's current software package that might not have a sophisticated solution to generate the price tags. Unique features such as cost code and bar-coding capabilities have been added to the software making it an all inclusive solution.
Further information, including a complete demo of the product can be found at the Velocitag's Web site or by calling 888.337.3384.
Velocitags includes more than 300 custom graphics, 12 sizes and 2 orientations. There are no complicated settings, and no artistic ability needed. The Velocitags product is now available to all association members, who receive a substantial savings on the systems price thru the use of the "NHFA" promo code when signing up online.
