Specifically, the article shows how CAD Solutions have increased Riten's sales closures, since Riten sells custom products.

The article notes: "Mr. Horton says the close rate for orders that begin with a customer viewing a drawing of a product on Riten's Web site has jumped to 80%, from 50% since the Web site was enhanced. Revenues are up about 20% year-over-year since... Mr. Horton adds that 80% of visitors who create a custom design end up purchasing the tool."
