New – low account funds alerts

Wednesday, May 12th, 2010

Here at Price Engines, our mission is to make sure you have every opportunity to do business.

So we’re constantly updating and adding new useful features to our systems and your Customer Admin Area to ensure that.

One such area is where companies are using our pre-pay option to budget their lead delivery.

Previously, these companies have had to keep an eye on their own balances and if they’d exhausted it without realising, it wasn’t until they stopped receiving sales leads that they were alerted.

So, to stop the interruption to your lead flow, we’ve introduced a new ‘low-balance’ alert service.

Login to your Customer Admin Area and under Account Details > Update account – at the very bottom you’ll see a new field ‘Low Balance Alert Level’ – simply enter an amount in pounds that once your account falls below, you’d like to receive an email alert.

Press ‘Save’ to save your changes.

You can amend this figure at any time or switch off any of the account alerts we offer as part of our service.

Price Engines – giving you every opportunity to do business.

New Customer Admin Area Features

Thursday, December 10th, 2009

If you’ve visited your Price Engines Customer Admin Area in the past few days, you may have noticed that we’ve been making some updates and alterations.

New Login System

We’ve updated the login system that the site uses, with several significant benefits, including:

Case-insensitive passwords – you no longer have to worry about leaving caps-lock on by accident or forgetting whether your password is in upper case or lower case.
Easy Log Out – you can now log out of the Admin Area without having to quit your browser. The system will also log you out automatically after 90 minutes’ inactivity, to help ensure the security of your account.
Fast Account Switching – if you have more than one Price Engines account and they are linked together, you can switch between accounts instantly,
Forgot Your Password? – You can now recover a forgotten password easily using the link below the login form.

Auto Go-Live

Until now, when you switched your account off temporarily – for instance, to go on holiday you had to remember to switch it back on again when you got back or miss out on leads.

One common request we’ve had from customers is for a simple way to schedule a reminder to turn your Price Engines account back on, preventing you from losing potential customers.

Well, we’ve gone one better than that and added our new Auto Go-Live system, a handy form which appears when you switch your account off and allows you to schedule a date and time you’d like your account to automatically switch back on. If you choose a go-live date, we’ll email you a confirmation of when your account will switch back on. The on/off button will also change to show an alarm clock beside the Off setting.

We’re already working on an extra setting which will give you a one click ‘cancel’ facility.

Using our new Auto Go-Live system means you won’t have to worry about losing business because you’ve gone on holiday ever again.

Affiliate Tools get a Makeover

Tuesday, September 15th, 2009

Due to the enormous success of our affiliate scheme, we’ve been busy upgrading the affiliate tools within the Customer Admin Area.

Search queries are now much faster due to a new database and we’re busy adding new tracking and functionality tools now and in the coming weeks.

If you’ve got any particular requests for affiliate features, please feel free to drop us a line or leave a comment, either here or on the Customer Admin Area forum (found under ‘help’).

Remember, we pay you £5 for every lead of yours we place with our recommended companies and because we always try to place that lead with a maximum of three companies, you could earn up to £15 for every homeowner you pass onto us.

Read more about our home improvement affiliate scheme here. It’s free to join and there’s absolutely no commitment on your part whatsoever. Create your account online and download our affiliate widgets or buttons – your choice – and you could be up and running in minutes.

Postcode area selector – new version now live in your Customer Admin Area

Thursday, July 30th, 2009

For a while we’ve not been happy with the area selector – not least because ’someone’ put loads of the postcode areas in the wrong places and it was hard to find them.

It was also hard to visualise which were your adjacent areas.

Tadaa.. we think this is a better solution. https://delivery.priceengines.co.uk/?ref=maparea
