Chloe Glynn: 作为Midwest Mechanical的销售代表,我专注于为大型商业和工业建筑销售预防性维护服务。与住宅或小型零售业务不同,我更倾向于与工会承包商合作,因为我们的工会技术人员训练有素,能够提供高质量的服务。我们团队紧密合作,利用XOi等工具清晰地展示问题,帮助客户了解维护的重要性。通过定期的预防性维护,我们可以及早发现潜在问题,避免设备发生灾难性故障,从而降低维修成本,延长设备寿命。此外,我们还会根据客户的性格类型匹配合适的技术人员,确保他们相处融洽,建立信任关系。 Gary McCreadie: 我也认同商业维护的重要性,特别是对于那些依赖暖通空调系统正常运行的企业来说。预防性维护可以避免设备在关键时刻发生故障,从而减少停机时间和经济损失。此外,通过定期的维护检查,我们可以及时发现潜在问题,避免小问题演变成大麻烦。对于那些不重视维护的客户,我总是强调维护的重要性,并解释长期维护的益处。同时,我也赞同根据技术水平和客户性格类型分配合适的技术人员,这有助于提高客户满意度和服务质量。
