Courtyard Electronics has opened a new website to allow online purchases of its products. www.courtyard.tv not only provides commercial interaction but also access to free trial offers. This complements Courtyard’s established website, www.courtyard.co.uk, that continues to provide information about all the Courtyard range.

 

The first item for sale on the new site is Courtyard’s ‘SoftClock’ NLE Clock that provides PC-based nonlinear edit systems with a fully customisable countdown clock and ID information. This is Courtyard’s first venture into pure software products and it has been the spur for setting up the new website. Besides the purchasing it is also possible to find out more in-depth detail about SoftClock before buying as, in addition to the product descriptions there is a free download of a trail version.

 

Steve Cranny, Sales Director comments, “We have been interested in offering online sales for some time and SoftClock was the ideal opportunity to kick it off. Customers get some real benefit as they can try before they buy.” Cranny continues, “Long-term the aim is to offer all our range this way to complement our normal sales activities so customers can choose whichever method suites them best.”
