FAXVIN Marks 16 Years of Helping Buyers and Dealers Make More Informed Vehicle Decisions

Founded on March 26, 2010, FAXVIN marks sixteen years in vehicle-history reporting with a data platform built to make used-vehicle research faster, clearer, and more practical

EDINBURGH, UK, March 26, 2026 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Today, we at FAXVIN are proud to mark 16 years in business. Since our founding on March 26, 2010, we have focused on one core mission: helping buyers, sellers, and automotive businesses make more informed decisions by giving them easier access to vehicle history information.

What began as VINCarHistory has grown into FAXVIN, a broader vehicle intelligence platform offering vehicle history reports, VIN checks, VIN decoding, license plate lookup, recalls, and other VIN-based research tools designed to reduce uncertainty before a purchase, trade, or inventory decision.

As of March 2026, our platform has provided more than 3,000,000 reports, built a database of more than 14 billion records, and covers over 820 million vehicles, with historical data collected since 1981. FAXVIN also reaches more than 280,000 monthly unique visitors.

Our reports compile records from licensed data providers and official databases into a single time-stamped report. Depending on source availability, that may include title history and brands, odometer readings, total-loss indicators, theft indicators, prior registration jurisdictions, recalls, lien or impound-related flags, and service, inspection, or auction entries from partner sources. FAXVIN reports also include NMVTIS data obtained through approved NMVTIS data providers.

For sixteen years, our goal has stayed the same: make vehicle history easier to access, easier to understand, and more useful when a real decision has to be made. We believe buyers and dealers should be able to review critical vehicle records in a format that is direct, practical, and built for action, not confusion.

This anniversary also marks the start of our next chapter. In March 2026, we welcomed Kevin Carter as Head of Product. As we continue to improve report clarity, usability, and decision-support tools across the platform, his leadership will help guide the next phase of product development at FAXVIN.

“Sixteen years in this market means sixteen years of earning trust one report at a time,” said a FAXVIN spokesperson. “We built FAXVIN to help people understand a vehicle’s past before they commit money, time, or risk. That remains our focus today, and it will remain our focus as we keep improving the platform for both consumers and businesses.”

As we look ahead, we remain committed to accuracy, accessibility, and continuous product improvement. Our job is simple: give people a clearer picture of a vehicle’s history so they can make better decisions with fewer surprises.

Top Coupon Websites Compared: Where to Find the Most Reliable Promo Codes in 2025

NEW YORK, N.Y., Aug. 14, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — As e-commerce continues to dominate the global retail landscape, shoppers are becoming increasingly selective about where they source discounts and promotions, says Hotdeals. The demand for accurate, timely, and trustworthy coupon websites has surged in 2025, driven by a marketplace where promotional codes can either deliver significant savings or lead to frustration when they fail to work. With a growing number of platforms claiming to offer the “best” deals, consumers and retailers alike are now prioritizing reliability over sheer volume.

Image caption: Hotdeals: Where to Find the Most Reliable Promo Codes in 2025.

THE GROWING IMPORTANCE OF VERIFIED COUPON WEBSITES

For years, online shoppers have navigated a crowded landscape of coupon aggregators and promotional code platforms. But in recent seasons, industry analysts have noted a clear shift: accuracy and authenticity are no longer optional. Coupon websites that consistently verify offers, remove expired codes promptly, and maintain strong partnerships with brands are seeing higher traffic and user loyalty.

“Consumers are no longer impressed by endless lists of outdated promo codes,” said a senior Hotdeals PR representative. “In 2025, the value lies in curation, verification, and a frictionless redemption process.”

This trend aligns with broader shifts in digital retail, where customer experience is now a decisive factor in conversion rates. A verified promo code not only builds consumer trust but also benefits brands, ensuring that discount campaigns deliver measurable results.

WHAT MAKES A COUPON WEBSITE RELIABLE?

Reliability in the coupon space is built on a combination of operational discipline and strategic partnerships. Key indicators include:

Verification Processes – Leading coupon websites manually or automatically test their promo codes to ensure they are valid before publication.
Update Frequency – Rapid removal of expired offers prevents customer frustration and improves trust.
Brand Relationships – Direct partnerships with retailers allow coupon sites to publish exclusive offers not available elsewhere.
User Feedback Loops – Allowing customers to flag broken codes accelerates quality control.

While many websites claim to do all of the above, only a few consistently maintain these standards over the long term.

HOW HOTDEALS POSITIONS ITSELF IN 2025

Hotdeals has leveraged these trends to strengthen its role as a trusted hub for both brands and bargain-hunters. By focusing on active partnerships with apparel, home goods, electronics, and seasonal retailers, the platform ensures that its inventory of coupon codes reflects real-time market activity.

The company’s internal quality-check system tests high-traffic promo codes daily, with priority given to offers linked to time-sensitive events like clearance sales or seasonal promotions. This proactive approach has helped Hotdeals maintain a reputation for delivering codes that actually work, a differentiator in a competitive space.

EVALUATING COUPON WEBSITES: 2025 MARKET INSIGHTS

When evaluating platforms in 2025, industry experts recommend looking beyond search rankings and flashy promises. In many cases, the “top” result on a search engine may not reflect the most reliable source—it might simply reflect the strongest advertising spend. Instead, consumers should weigh:

Success Rate of Codes – Verified through user reviews or platform-reported statistics.
Ease of Redemption – The fewer steps required, the better the user experience.
Specialization – Niche coupon websites often outperform generalist platforms in certain product categories.
Transparency – Platforms that clearly label expiration dates and redemption conditions minimize wasted time.

The takeaway: the best coupon websites are those that balance a wide selection with high redemption accuracy.

WHY PROMO CODE RELIABILITY MATTERS MORE THAN EVER

In a year where inflationary pressures still influence consumer behavior, every percentage point of savings counts. Unreliable coupon codes not only waste time but also risk eroding brand trust—a critical concern for retailers navigating competitive seasonal sales cycles.

Reliable coupon websites serve as an important bridge between merchants and shoppers, ensuring promotions reach the right audience in a form that works the first time. This function is especially critical during peak events such as back-to-school shopping, summer clearance, and Black Friday preparation.

THE 2025 SHOPPER MINDSET

Modern shoppers are informed, mobile-first, and increasingly impatient with friction in the checkout process. They expect coupon websites to integrate seamlessly with their purchasing journey—whether that’s through a browser extension, mobile app, or a well-optimized website that loads quickly on any device.

In this environment, platforms that fail to deliver a smooth, reliable experience risk being abandoned after a single failed code attempt. On the other hand, those that build credibility through consistent performance can secure repeat engagement and long-term loyalty.

The competition among coupon websites in 2025 is fierce, but the criteria for success are clearer than ever. Reliability, transparency, and brand partnerships are the true differentiators in a market flooded with options. As shoppers prepare for seasonal clearance events and year-round sales, turning to trusted platforms—where codes are tested, offers are current, and redemption is straightforward—remains the surest way to unlock genuine savings.

For Hotdeals, this commitment to verification and user-focused design is not just a competitive strategy; it’s a responsibility to both shoppers and partner brands. In an era where a single failed coupon code can mean a lost customer, that responsibility has never been more important.

A New Powerful Multimedia Tool Expands Content Creators’ Fan Followers and Enriches Community Interactions

MIDDLETOWN, N.Y. /ScoopCloud/ -- Gan Jing World announced release of Multimedia Format Hashtag Aggregation, a powerful feature that tags together content across multiple media types: videos, shorts, live streams, articles, blogs, photos, and soon podcasts.

These content forms that were once separated across different platforms and spaces are collected together on a single page that is categorized by a creator-led theme or topic of interest.

Influencers and content creators can launch their own Hashtag Campaigns, building a panoramic view into their topics and events that sees the world through fans' eyes.

Creators can use these dynamic campaigns to drive rich community interactions and garner support or interest for a variety of use-cases, including:

* Starting a conversation

* Event planning and post-event engagement

* Product launches

* On-site interactive sessions

* Exclusive content releases

* Q&As

Get started by creating a post with a unique hashtag that has never been used before. A dedicated page will be automatically created and the aggregation tool will conveniently display all forms of content submitted with that hashtag.

Users can interact with one another in real-time on topics and events through their preferred media. When creating a new post of any media type, use existing hashtag(s) in the description or title to automatically add it onto that hashtag's dedicated page.

A recent event hashtag campaign #GoViralGJWmt0 shows the aggregator tool in action as a collection of user-submitted photos, videos, and other posts capture the grand opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony of the Gan Jing World headquarters building in upstate New York.

The varied media types brought together share an added dimension in capturing the special event day that social media influencer Ben Hedges, who was present at the opening, says can be felt as if you were brought to the scene.

The multimedia feature leverages technology as a tool, instead of as an exclusive feature of its platform, placing the topic of interest at the center.

GJW Media Relations Director Nick Janicki shared his thoughts on how the new feature reflects the mission and starting point for Gan Jing World's feature enhancements: "That sense of community reflects the company's mission of putting traditional values before technology.

"While other social media platforms are trying to pull people into the virtual world, Gan Jing World uses technology to help people reconnect through traditional interactions."

About Gan Jing World:

Gan Jing World is a new family-friendly social platform that seeks to foster positive and uplifting engagement in its community, helping people recall the importance of strong bonds in the family and community to nurturing the mind and spirit. The platform allows for a multimedia sharing environment, where the fundamental mission is to create positive change in the world through showcasing inspiring content that uplifts society.

Some of the functions of Online UniConverter that are commonly used by most people across the globe include:

Conversion
With the ability to support 1000+ formats, Online UniConverter can convert video clips to their relevant formats or audio. The web tool is capable of converting audio files as well.

Compression
The online solution can compress the files so they occupy less space on the users' computers' hard drive. During the process, Online UniConverter lets the end-users define the compression ratio at the cost of output quality.

GIF Creation
The web tool allows users to upload short video clips and convert them to animated GIFs that can be shared on social media platforms or published online for quick illustrations.

Video Editing

The term 'editing' covers wide spectrum where Online UniConverter lets the users to trim the videos, crop them, adjust their contrast, brightness, and saturation, and even flip and rotate them as needed.

Common Networks Launches New Ultra High-Speed Internet Service In South Bay

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- Common Networks today announced the launch of its ultra high-speed internet service in the South Bay region. Common is the world's first and only commercially available, graph-based network delivering home internet service, and is now providing residents in Santa Clara, San Jose, and Sunnyvale with a new choice for reliable high-speed home internet.

For a $50 a month flat rate, Common offers up to 1 Gbps home internet service, with no contract, no data caps, and no additional equipment fees.

"Silicon Valley is the epicenter of technology and innovation, and we are excited to offer its residents the high-speed option we have all been waiting for. We've received great feedback from customers of our early access program in the South Bay, and are now ready to provide our fast and friendly home internet service to even more customers," said Zach Brock, CEO of Common Networks. "Unlike other major competitors, we do not have any data caps on our service, and when we have extra bandwidth, we provide that additional speed free to our customers. Our team has worked tirelessly to identify and partner with key organizations like Santa Clara University, and iconic buildings including Tisch Tower, 2350 Mission College, and Casino M8trix, to ensure that local residents can benefit from our service."

Common is now launching to more than 30,000 residents in Santa Clara County, in addition to the over 50,000 residents it can already serve in Alameda, California, with plans to expand into other Bay Area communities this year.

"As one of the most coveted residential buildings in the South Bay, we are always looking for opportunities to increase the quality of life for our residents. But when we asked the cable company to improve connectivity for our building, they wanted us to pay for wiring that would have cost us tens of thousands of dollars," said Brian Didier, building manager at 1700 Civic Center Drive in Santa Clara, California. "Common Networks came in and about a half of our residents now have high-speed internet access at a fraction of what the big telecom giants charge. Common is providing an unmatched combination of speed and price."

Common was founded in 2016 by technology industry veterans Zach Brock, Grace Chen, Mark Jen, and Jessica Shalek. The founding team all previously worked at Square where they built the Square Register product, started the Square developer platform, and led Growth teams for domestic and international expansion.

About Common Networks, Inc.:

MIAMI, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- 800Casting (https://800casting.com) Company is always vigilant about finding ways to serve and has secured its place in the entertainment industry as the number one innovator of casting software which continues to expand and develop exciting new services for filmmakers, casting directors, and talent representatives.

Today, the company is introducing a completely FREE new service called Cast Assist(TM) which helps all casting directors and filmmakers simplify and enhance their work process by selecting the right cast.

An important part of a film production includes having to cast the right talent for the role. But how do you know when you are casting the right person for the part? Using Cast Assist(TM) service will enable you to increase your chances of selecting a suitable talent for the project.

Donald DiPrima, co-founder of 800casting, says, "Working with Cast Assist is a piece of cake, user doesn't have to learn any software or fill out long forms; users simply have to email their breakdown and details to auditions@800casting.com and a complete package, which movie producers and casting directors can review, will be created for them."

Your time and energy is everything. With the number of people having access to the public breakdown lists, you can be sure that the casting will have hundreds (if not thousands) of submissions minutes after the job is published, which always results in an excessive amount of unqualified talent submissions which can hinder the selection process.

In an interview, Akash Kava, a software architect behind the creation of Cast Assist(TM) said, "Cast Assist is designed to combat the unqualified submission problem. Our team of trained casting assistants works closely with your production staff to eliminate unqualified submissions, request self-taped remote auditions from those who are qualified and present the qualified talent for your review. You can choose how many auditions you would like to receive, and every rejected audition is stored in a dismissed folder for immediate recall".

The casting process can be frustrating and monotonous. Which can force you to make the rookie producing mistake of rushing through the casting process.

When you settle with a cast you are not satisfied with, it could lead to some major problems on the set later when it's too late and too expensive to recast.

Producers, directors, network and studio executives, agents, photographers, production companies, advertising agencies, modelling agencies, etc. will benefit a lot from this new service Cast Assist(TM) which breathes life into projects by making life easy and helps to choose the perfect cast for a film, TV show, play, or other production.

Cast Assist(TM) is the only casting service that offers a free service which streamlines the casting submission process to save you time, energy and money with a fully integrated talent casting solutions thereby eliminating an unqualified candidate.

New Online Voice Casting Platform Launched by Voice Force Gets High Marks by Industry Pros

BURBANK, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- A new online casting platform and production management tool - https://www.voiceforce.net/ - aimed at the $15 billion voice-over market, has been launched by Voice Force, a small group of voice industry professionals headquartered in Burbank, California.

The web-based service simultaneously connects the three focal points of voice casting: agents, buyers and talent, and provides comprehensive support services to each category of industry professional.

The launch includes a YouTube series https://youtu.be/lYhcu42nDsQ to introduce Voice Force.

According to company president Steve Howard, response to online and in-person demonstrations has been overwhelmingly positive. "We saw the need for a service that would integrate the requirements of buyers, agents and talent into an all-inclusive network. And one that harnesses current technology to deliver every function necessary for voice production faster, smarter and better," said Howard.

The platform provides agents with customized dashboards that can manage talent profiles and provide search and response functions for production postings. Similar dashboards assist talent with profile management and production companies with job postings and project management. The platform provides users with desktop and mobile accessible tools.

"There's no need for Dropbox, Google Drive or any other file-sharing services. NDAs, scripts, auditions can be downloaded or uploaded directly to Voice Force; no email attachments necessary," explained Howard. "Talent profiles are interactive. Buyers can listen to and download demo reels; review voice characteristics and specialties; check out social media links, resumes, personal websites and more."

Howard said Voice Force is currently providing agents a free 60-day trial period so that "they can test drive the system."

Voice casting director and producing veteran Kate McClanaghan says Voice Force's state-of-the-art technology, comprehensive services and transparent fee structure is long overdue.

"Voice Force has created a turnkey system that is simple, efficient and supports the requirements of casting agents as well as meeting the needs of actors and producers," said McClanaghan.

The company held a special preview for voice actors and agents at the national Society of Voice Arts and Sciences (SOVAS) conference at Universal City last November and completed its beta testing in January.

"Voice Force spared no expense insuring state-of-the-art workflow, but what distinguishes Voice Force is buyers, agents, and talent receive a transparent, user-friendly system," said SOVAS president Rudy Gaskins.

Emmy Award winning voice actor Jim Ward, sees fast adaptation by talent. Ward, whose credits include "Finding Nemo," "Toy Story," "Call of Duty," and "Monsters University," said, "Giving actors a free, easy-to-use portal makes coordinating with their agent a breeze and gives the agents a real time-saving tool."

Voice Force fees for agents are on a sliding scale and the service is available to producers and talent at no charge. Producers can post an unlimited number of projects for free and an extensive, searchable database is available for a nominal fee.

Gallo LLP Files first 10 Consumer Claims Against Google Following Injunction and Revision of Gmail Architecture

SAN RAFAEL, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- San Francisco Bay Area law firm Gallo LLP has filed the first of what it predicts could be thousands of individual damages cases against Google based on the same misconduct alleged in Matera v. Google, Case No. 15-CV-04062-LHK. Acting for a class of consumers who never signed up for Gmail (but nevertheless had their email scanned by Google), the Matera plaintiffs sought injunctive relief under the federal Electronic Communications Privacy Act (the "Wiretap Act") and California Invasion of Privacy Act ("CIPA"). The Matera case was brought by Gallo LLP, Lieff Cabraser Heimann & Bernstein, LLP, and Carney, Bates, & Pulliam, PLLC.

On February 9, 2018, the United States District Court for the Northern District of California issued an injunction against Google's pre-delivery scanning of email for advertising purposes pursuant to a settlement. (See http://www.gmailsettlement.com.) However, the settlement did not release any damages claims non-Gmail users may have.

"Even if you never used Gmail, Google was still scanning all your emails to Gmail users, whether they were to your mother or your doctor, and using the content to create profiles and build advertising data," explains Senior Partner Ray E. Gallo. "We excluded damages claims from the Matera case because of the court's ruling in related litigation, which suggested that individual questions of implied consent might preclude certification of a damages class."

Following court decisions denying Google's challenges to the legal basis for the Matera lawsuit, Google agreed, and on that basis was court-ordered to stop intercepting and processing inbound emails to Gmail accounts for advertising purposes for three years. Google reports that it has changed its architecture to do that.

"Damage claims remain viable for affected individuals during a short statute of limitations window," says Gallo. "CIPA protects Californians and requires that both sides consent to the interception of communications between them and authorizes statutory damages of $5,000 per violation. If each intercepted email constitutes a violation, Google could have billions of dollars in liability. Individuals in other states with two-party consent laws have similar claims, and we may accept those claims too."

Gallo is accepting certain clients who have never signed-up for Gmail accounts through its website at https://emailprivacy.gallo.law to assert their $5,000 claims (or the applicable statutory damages under that plaintiff's state law).

Gallo LLP pursued a similar strategy in 2016 in Corley v. Google, seeking damages on behalf of about 900 individuals who alleged they never consented to Google's email processing practices. Court records indicate those cases settled in 2016.

About Gallo LLP:

San Francisco Bay Area law firm Gallo LLP ( https://gallo.law ) represents consumers, employees, and investors in large-scale litigation. Gallo is noted for its industry-leading use of technology in lieu of class treatment. Gallo's software is now available to other lawyers at https://leverage.law. Client reviews of Ray E. Gallo at AVVO.com suggest clients love the approach.

Ray E. Gallo is a graduate of Yale and the UCLA Law School, has been listed in Los Angeles Magazine as one of LA's "Rising Stars," is listed in Martindale Hubbell's Bar Register of Preeminent Lawyers, is a regular "Clients' Choice" award winner on AVVO, and has been named as a Top 100 national Legal Consultant in Technology by Lawdragon.

Exclusive Travel Site Gives Members Access to Wholesale Prices and Beats Competition Every Time

CARLSBAD, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- Travel Transparency, a private wholesale travel platform, is creating a real buzz in the travel and tourism industry. It guarantees to beat any pricing on major Internet travel sites such as Expedia, Orbitz, Priceline, Kayak, Travelocity, Hotwire and more.

The company's mission is to provide guaranteed lowest pricing on all travel in real-time with complete transparency; and it seems to be working. For four years in a row, the company's technology has been voted "Fastest Growing Travel Company in America" by Inc. Magazine; it has added more than one million users last year; and has saved members more than $40 million dollars since its launch.

Derek Gough, president, Travel Transparency, is a 25-year veteran of the travel industry who has directed close to a billion dollars in sales. He says that "consumers are conditioned to search for discounted travel through major Internet sites."

However, what most people don't realize is that many of these companies are owned by the same parent companies and are subject to restrictions on public pricing.

Travel Transparency provides its members direct access to wholesale travel and guaranteed lowest pricing for all travel including hotels, luxury villas, cruises and more.

In addition to receiving wholesale travel and a best-price guarantee, members also receive reward credits on anything they purchase. These credits can then be used for additional purchases on items such as hotels, airfare, car rentals, activities and gift cards.

So, how does it work? When a person becomes a member of Travel Transparency's private platform, he or she receives access to the industry's widest and most diverse lifestyle experiences and travel benefits. Concierge services are also available to assist with any travel needs.

Ashley Vincenti, Travel Transparency member, said she loves the program. "Last year we took the family to Santa Barbara, CA and not only did we save almost 70 percent, but we used reward credits to do a whale watching excursion which the kids are still talking about."

Another member was thrilled to book a trip to New York City for a New Year's Eve celebration because she saved nearly 50 percent when she compared the cost to what other travel sites offered.

For serious or beginning travelers, Travel Transparency saves time and money and people can feel confident that they have gotten the best deal possible.

"The bottom line is that the consumer profits the most," Gough says. "Today's travelers have options. Whether it's world-class hotels, timeshare resorts, or luxury vacation properties, the reality is that they're all available wholesale with minimal commitment."

Denver Businessman Launches Website to Meet the Woman of His Dreams

DENVER, Colo. /ScoopCloud/ -- "Chances are almost zero I'm the guy for you." That's one of the first lines Nate Rifkin, a single man in Denver, writes in the most bizarre dating profile online today. It's not on any kind of app or dating site. Instead, Rifkin built an entire website entitled "Should You Date Nate" for one purpose: finding the woman of his dreams.

As Nate puts it, "If you're a single woman in your 20s or 30s and you're tired of meeting the same boring guys; if you're interested in meeting someone who truly values you for YOU, loves to listen and cherishes living life to the fullest just as much as you, then this letter might change your life."

His offer is simple. He's willing to take a woman on a dream vacation anywhere in the world. The catch? They have to meet first and feel some chemistry.

He explains his website, appropriately titled ShouldYouDateNate.com, is his special effort to stand out. Nate admits it won't resonate with 99-percent of women.

But for the one-percent of women who appreciate his clever approach, the Denver single paints an enticing picture of how things could end up: "Perhaps relaxing and getting cozy in front of a fire in a mountain-side condo after a fun day skiing Aspen; or enjoying frozen cocktails on a South American beach."

Nate makes sure to mention he's 6-foot 4-inches and doing quite well for himself in business. However, he's certainly not shy about revealing his flaws. The Denver single admits he dropped out of college, went bankrupt, lived close to the poverty line and worked for years on the street-corner wearing a goofy costume.

This may be the first dating profile in history where a man proudly calls himself a "greedy capitalist pig," writes about "I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant - Celebrity Edition" and even brings up zombies.

He's bracing himself for the social media uproar this will ignite. Especially his website's most controversial parts, when he brings up his strict political requirements.

Still, Nate's optimistic: "All the hateful messages and embarrassment will be worth it, if I meet the woman of my dreams."

MyJewelryRepair.com Shows Growth in Industry Stuck in Tailspin

RANCHO CUCAMONGA, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- The Jewelers Board of Trade continues to report less than inspiring numbers for the jewelry industry at large, says MyJewelryRepair.com. The number of retail jewelers, wholesalers, and manufacturers closed down in the U.S. and Canada has risen to 1,564 in 2016, up five hundred and change from 2015's numbers. This decline represents what National Jeweler calls a "[64 percent] year-over-year increase" in closed businesses.

This number includes 1,190 retail jewelers in the U.S. and Canada ceasing operation (up 53 percent from 2015). Combine this with 235 wholesalers closing up shop (up 81 percent from last year), and 139 manufacturers (up 190 percent from 2015) shutting their doors.

One reason driving the increased rate of closures, JBT President Anthony Capuano attests to, is that many business owners are at or near retirement age. Most jewelers find themselves in an industry much less robust than they remember with no new blood coming in to enter the family business, which means that the lion's share of jewelry businesses adhere to yesterday's format and business practices.

Yet, there are companies like MyJewelryRepair.com that embrace tech and make innovative strides to appeal to modern consumers. Their hook is that they offer their suite of services entirely online, instead of the traditional, belabored brick-and-mortar jeweler and watch repair shop. With major facilities operating on both coasts of the United States, MJR can now serve their customers on a national level.

MyJewelryRepair.com's master jewelers and certified watchmakers aspire to service jewelry and provide watch repairs nationwide through secured mail, offering free standard shipping to customers from anywhere in the United States. They can perform the micro to the macro. For instance, they can execute watch band replacement, both mineral and sapphire crystal replacements, while also performing intricacies like clean and overhauls on quartz and mechanical movements.

Other services provided include ring sizing, invisible-set stone repair, replacing missing or loose stones, difficult silver or platinum repairs, and scores of other services you can view on their website.

Though the process gets intricate once the jewelry or watch gets to them, "Repairs Made Simple," remains MyJewelryRepair.com's slogan for the consumer since offering their service in 2014. MJR's owners have been active in the jewelry industry since 1993. With locations on both the east and west coast, they have now expanded to over 180 employees in response to a 386 percent increase in repairs during this year's first quarter.

The company has also crafted and invested heavily in the creation, ongoing operation, and routine maintenance of their site for ease of use and streamlined ordering processes.
The Jewelry Board of Trade's findings showed that 21 percent of Jewelers closed shop by the end of 2015, but MyJewelryRepair.com has continued to grow since its conception.

With a high percentage of repeat business, the only hurdle that presents itself is getting their customers to send their jewelry and heirlooms through certified mail. "But once they use our facilities staffed with certified watchmakers and master jewelers, they experience service and craftsmanship of the highest caliber of repair," making them incredibly likely to use this service in the future.

Instead of struggling to tread water in an industry focused on clinging to the vestiges of old traditions, MJR has taken measures to gain new relevance. They've created a business and service that has been quick to adopt innovative technology, facilitating an elevated experience for the consumer.

About MyJewelryRepair.com:

MyJewelryRepair.com is an online jewelry and certified watch repair service company dedicated to creating a unique and convenient consumer experience. MJR was founded in 2014 and has its headquarters in Rancho Cucamonga, Calif. With another facility in Connecticut, MyJewelryRepair.com strives to become the leading jewelry and watch repair service in the United States, operating at a national level for all of its customers.
