Vendio Gallery Helps Increase Profits, Puts Fun Back in Auctions

SAN BRUNO, Calif. April 14, 2004 — - Vendio (www.vendio.com), a leading provider of online sales management solutions, today announced the new Vendio Gallery designed to help online merchants better cross-sell to customers in a fun and engaging format.

"As auctions have become increasingly popular, much of the fun has been lost to the rigors of competition," said Rodrigo Sales, CEO of Vendio. "With Vendio Gallery, we want to help merchants sell more efficiently, give buyers more choices and capture some of the original spirit that made the early auction community so fun and unique."

Vendio is the only solutions provider to offer a Gallery with four unique styles to choose from: - Marquee (a scrolling list of items with roll over product highlights), Slot Machine (three items that rotate with a click of a button), Memory Game (customers match two pairs by "turning over" blank tiles) and Basic.

By including a Vendio Gallery in their listings, online merchants can enjoy a number of benefits that are unique to Vendio:
Make the Most of an eBay store - By displaying both auction listings and eBay Store listings, Vendio Gallery gives merchants an economical way to drive more traffic to eBay Store items. Merchants can also choose which items to show first in their Gallery - eBay Store, eBay Auction or a random selection of both.

Fast, Intelligent Browsing - Pull down category menus help buyers sort through available items to quickly find the category they are interested in browsing.

Fully Customizable Cross-Sell Service - It is easy to change the style, colors and message of a Vendio Gallery to reflect the style of any business.

Vendio Gallery is available immediately with plans starting at just $2.95 per month.
