ASC has partnered with IJN Systems to provide Craftsman for Windows users with a simple way to create and manage appraisal documentation across your entire network, in one centralized data base. The software performs real-time updates to enable you to offer your customers the ability to insure their jewelry before they even leave the store. It's another potential source of revenue for your store.

 

Designed by a 4th generation jeweler as a value-added service, IJN Systems can create appraisals and instantly insure purchases made in your store.  Even if you don't sell insurance to every customer, you can  use the appraisal software to create a valuation document for the item.  The IJN network is tied directly to your Craftsman for Windows database, so much of the information captured by ASC is available to the appraisal system for automatic updating.

 

The insurance portion of the module allows your customers the convenience of easily obtaining insurance for their new purchase.  The flexibility of the program, underwritten by an "A" rated billion dollar insurance company,  is highlighted by it's ability to offer; immediate coverage, no deductible, renewable terms, and transferable coverage (in the case of a gift, where the purchaser and owner are seperate parties).

 

All insurance transactions occur via a separate touch-screen kiosk computer and the instructions for purchasing insurance are simple and straightforward. Your sales staff simply points the customer to the kiosk so that they can apply for and purchase coverage. You also have the option of using free insurance a closing tool that helps to capture those purchasers who are undecided, by paying for insurance coverage on their behalf.
