The tech giant recently launched Samsung Service Vans to ensure their customers receive a fast and effective\u00a0same day repair\u00a0to their products.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCustomer and client retention are core functions for any successful business, especially those operating in a free market where trends can change overnight. Consistency and innovation are mantras practiced daily. But to truly set yourself apart, one needs to offer the highest standard of customer service, because no matter how good your product is, if you do not offer quality support services to your clients, you are bound to fail as an organisation,\u201d says\u00a0Director at Samsung South Africa Service, Richard Chetty.<\/p>\n<p>The service has rolled out in Johannesburg, Durban and Cape Town, with a view to extending the offering to other major centres in the near future. To book a repair,\u00a0customers\u00a0need to contact the call centre where they\u2019ll be taken through a trouble-shooting exercise. For televisions, the issue can often be solved remotely.<\/p>\n<p>The service vans are kitted out with parts and equipment to solve the most common issues people experience and once the basic problem is established, a service van is dispatched. Currently, customers can expect a van to arrive the next day, but Samsung are planning on offering a same-day service soon.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeople buy our products because they trust our brand. So, it\u2019s only right that we return that trust by giving them the best customer service we can. We want to ensure that all our clients receive the care they need and expect of us. This innovation places us at the helm of rewarding our customers\u2019 trust, because we understand that growing a business means growing you clientele\u2019s confidence in you,\u201d concludes Chetty.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s not every day that a company offers a quick and efficient in-home service for your appliances and devices, but Samsung is now offering just that for their customers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":57,"featured_media":213203,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10459],"tags":[26,52],"class_list":["post-213195","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-industry-news","tag-headline","tag-samsung"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/213195","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/57"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=213195"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/213195\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":213201,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/213195\/revisions\/213201"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/213203"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=213195"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=213195"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=213195"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
