WORCESTER, Mass., Nov. 15, 2010/PRNewswire/ -- Bulbs.com, one of the nation's largest Philips Lighting distributors, has partnered with PowerReviews to provide the platform for user-generated product reviews on its web site.
"We believe user-generated product reviews will give our shoppers the information and confidence they need to purchase the right product every time", says Bulbs.com CEO Mike Connors. "Our goal is to help commercial and residential customers find the right light bulb faster and easier. We know that an overwhelming number of shoppers use product reviews to assist them in purchasing an item, so by adding this feature we expect to increase our satisfaction score, conversion rate and average order value while decreasing product returns and customer service requests", says Connors.
