LESS PAPER - MORE SPEED & EFFICIENCY - November 2011

A major step forward was taken in our on-going commitment to our ‘Customer Service Improvement  Programme’  during November, which saw us install a  ‘state of the art’ server. This investment has allowed us to utilise electronic mail in many more aspects of handling customer orders, thus reducing our carbon footprint in the usage of stationery paper items. Typically,  where customers have a preference,  and suitable email contact addresses are available,  we are sending Order Acknowledgements, Invoices, Statements and Purchase Orders via email.

If you have not already done so please let us know if you would prefer electronic communication on any part of the ordering process, and let us know the relevant email address.

‘FIRST UP’ FOR NEW APAC  SYSTEM - July 2011

St Helens based IPM were the first wholesaler to place an order for the new APAC System. When MD Ian Fisher misplaced his Falcon telephone number he turned to the website and saw the revised Plumbing Brochure. He immediately focused on the new clip and cover style APAC System, and knew immediately that the system would be of value to both himself and his plumbing contractors. Having had confirmation of the competitive pricing he didn’t hesitate in placing an order. The order coincided with our daily van delivery rota to that location, and the product was on his shelves within 48 hours. So congratulations to Ian for taking the accolade of ‘First Up’, and we look forward to an increased repeat order from Ian and his team in the very near future.
